How to control your HVAC system's fan:  
ecobee thermostats can control your fan in a variety of ways to maximize your comfort. Below explains the five  
methods available.  
1. Fan Control in Heat Mode  
2. Fan Minimum On Time  
3. Quick Changes (used to turn the fan ON for a limited amount of time)  
4. Heat/Cool Dissipation Time  
5. Fan Mode in Comfort Settings  
Fan Control in Heat Mode:  
You can choose either the ecobee thermostat or your furnace to control your system's fan during furnace/aux  
heating cycles. When set to "thermostat", the ecobee will operate your system fan differently than your furnace  
during heating cycles by sending the signal to run the fan itself rather than relying on the furnace to do so.  
To adjust this setting, go to MAIN MENU > SETTINGS > INSTALLATION SETTINGS > EQUIPMENT > FURNACE >  
FAN CONTROL IN HEAT MODE  
NOTE: This option is only accessible through the thermostat interface. Neither the mobile apps or Web Portal  
provide access to adjust this option.  
Set to ecobee thermostat: By choosing this option, your ecobee will energize the fan directly during heating cycles.  
This will cause the fan to immediately turn on when a heating cycle is initiated and continue to run until the heating  
cycle ends.  
Set to HVAC: By choosing this option, your ecobee will relinquish control of the fan to the furnace during heating  
cycles. In this case, there will usually be a brief delay before the fan engages after a heating cycle is initiated. This  
option is recommended if you have a variable fan speed furnace.
