Part of the energy saving smarts with AirTouch 5 is the set point limit. Set Point Limit allows you to limit the set point of your AC unit. If you don’t want someone setting the cooling below 17°C or above 26°C for example, you can restrict the maximum and minimum temperature of each AC unit in your system. To setup Set Point limits, follow this support article.
Enter the Quick Menu from the top right of the AirTouch console, and select Settings.
Tap Smarts, and then Set Point Limit.
Set your preferred upper and lower set point limits.

This is great for Energy Savings
We’ve made it possible for you to set a temperature upper and lower limit to help prevent energy wastage with the air conditioning if someone in your household sets an extreme cooling or heating temperature that is unnecessary.

Our cooling limits have a min of 19ºC. How can you cool to lower than 19 like above it states 17
Hi Matt, sometimes the actual temperature you can set your system too are limited by the AC unit itself. Alternatively, do you maybe has a set point limit in place?
The lowest I can set the heating is 18… I’d like to set it at 16 over night… is there a way to override?
Hi Chris, that can be due to the specifications and minimum heat set point temperature available for your AC unit itself.
Before the latest update, we used to be able to set our heating to 16 degrees overnight but since the latest update it has limited it to 18 degrees. We have had to turn our unit off overnight. Have to ask why this change was made or am I missing something?
Hello Andrew,
We understand your frustration regarding the change in the temperature setting limits with the latest update.
Previously, there was a bug in our console app that allowed zones to be set to a temperature range of 16-32 degrees, regardless of the actual limits of your AC unit. This meant you could set your heating to 16 degrees even if your AC unit’s lowest setpoint was higher.
The recent update fixed this bug to ensure that the zone temperature settings align with your AC unit’s limits. If your AC unit’s lowest setpoint is 18 degrees, the zones will now reflect this and not allow settings below 18 degrees. This change ensures the set temperature can be accurately achieved and maintained by the AC unit.
We understand this might be inconvenient, but it’s necessary for the correct functioning of your system. Please let us know if your AC unit allows a Set Point lower than 18 degrees and we can investigate further.
