200 views
Hold on a Honeywell thermostat allows you to override the programmed temperature settings for an indefinite period until you manually change it or cancel the hold. Set, on the other hand, is used to program your thermostat to automatically adjust the temperature based on time of day or day of the week, following your pre-set schedule. Essentially, hold gives you temporary control, while set helps automate temperature control according to your routine.
