intelligent recovery will internally check the cycles to determine automaticly and preshot the temperature.I turn mine to 45 from 7:30 am to 5;30 PM during the week and it generally never drops below 60 in that time. due to taking care of r values and infilltration.With raising gas costs we are really pushing duel fuel HP on natural gas right now also set back t-stats humidifiers and variable speed blowers are very good investments to save money.On a fossil fuel furnace i would set back to 60F or maybe 55F no more than that.Also dont bother going that far if it isnt for any period of time.knock it down before you leave in the morn 30 minutes to 1 hr and set it to be back up as late as possible.
