Your Ecobee thermostat is running a heating or cooling schedule that does not fit your current daily routine. You can update these times and temperature settings directly from your thermostat interface.

  1. Select your specific thermostat from the home screen if you have multiple zones in your house [0:08].
  2. Open the main menu by selecting the settings icon located in the upper right corner of the screen [0:15].
  3. Tap on “Schedule” to view your current temperature activities [0:17].
  4. Select a specific activity to edit or remove it from your schedule [0:25].
  5. Adjust the start times for your existing activities, like your sleep schedule, and hit save to apply the changes [0:52].
  6. Navigate back to the main menu and select “Comfort Settings” to customize the target temperatures for specific modes like Sleep or Home [1:00].
  7. Tap the plus icon at the top of the schedule screen if you need to add a new time block or activity to your day [1:54].

Ninja Tip: You can create a “Vacation” event in the main menu to hold a specific temperature for a set date range, which overrides your normal schedule without requiring you to delete your existing settings.

If you encounter persistent software errors, perform a factory reset by navigating to Main Menu > Settings > Reset > Reset All Settings.
