Abstract
A system for controlling the air temperature of a building using a control plan based on a target time. The system includes one or more temperature sensors, an indoor HVAC unit, an outdoor HVAC unit, and a controller. The controller is incorporated into one of the indoor HVAC unit or the outdoor HVAC unit. Further, the controller is communicatively coupled to the indoor HVAC unit, the outdoor HVAC unit, and the one or more temperature sensors. Furthermore, the controller is configured to selectively operate the indoor HVAC unit in accordance with a temperature control plan to reach a target air temperature at the one or more temperature sensors in a target time.
