Why do my usage and savings reports show different numbers for the runtime of my heating or cooling system?

EcoFactor uses information received from your thermostat when it is connected to the Internet to determine the runtime of your heating or cooling system(s). However, at times, your thermostat may not be connected to the Internet. As a result, EcoFactor's data analytics engine generates two numbers: (1) the actual runtime of your system when your thermostat was connected shown on your usage reports, and (2) a conservative calculation of runtime - including an adjustment for the periods when your thermostat may not have been connected - shown on your savings reports.
