Personally I don’t even use the auto feature. Just turn on plain, old-fashioned AC or heat as appropriate. I couldn’t get the deadband function to work well either. I bailed and went manual…

For the life of me, I can't find where to find this setting despite searching online everywhere, even on Ecobee. It's supposed to be in Thresholds, but I can't find it. Can anyone provide help?
