Ecobee Calibrating Heat Cool Disabled. The calibrating means that the thermostats or sensors are trying to acquire the correct temperature of your house at that time. Calibrating happens when the thermostat is installed and also when the thermostat reboots.
My Ecobee calibrating sign showing the heat and cool being disabled got me worried. I thought my Ecobee was facing an error. I turned it off and rebooted my Ecobee.
Despite that, the calibrating option was displayed. I then read the Ecobee codes and guidelines. The calibrating of Ecobee had a special meaning and found it. I solved my Ecobee calibrating and wrote about it.
So keep reading!.
Ecobee Calibrating Heat Cool Disabled
Calibrating Ecobee means the heating and cooling disabled happens after the installation of the new Ecobee. It also happens with reboots of the Ecobee. The Ecobee may reboot when the furnace gets too hot.
Wiring affects Ecobee too. Ecobee may struggle with the power source. The power of the Ecobee is unstable. The condenser coil may be calibrating the Ecobee on its own. Setting Ecobee at the wrong temperature causes calibrating of an Ecobee.
Calibrating because of wires causes disabling, so you’ll need replacement. If there is an Ecobee power outage, then regain the Ecobee power manually. A technical issue related to Ecobee needs correction of error.
First-time use of Ecobee needs necessary calibration, and you’ll have to wait. If rebooting of Ecobee occurs multiple times, fix the Ecobee rebooting problem, and the heating and cooling will be enabled again.
First installation
If the Ecobee is installed in your house for the first time, the heating/cooling disabling is bound to come. The first installation of Ecobee is calibrating and disabling because the house’s temperature needs checking.
The thermos won’t work properly without knowing the temperature it needs to set. Thermostat by Ecobee functions by sensing the current temperature and setting it to a user-set temperature.
If calibrating after the first installation, then let it disable heat and cold. Set the temperature through the Ecobee panel control to what you want, and after calibrating, the temperature will become suitable.
Wait and enjoy. The calibrating takes about 2o minutes, including the temperature set by you manually. The heating system won’t be available while calibrating and the cooling system either.
Rebooting calibrating
Rebooting of Ecobee is pretty standard. You may reboot it by yourself to reset the temperature. Ecobee calibrating is normal while rebooting too.
Don’t get worried if heating is disabled while rebooting as rebooting beings calibrating, and the meaning of calibrating is disabling cooling and heating. Look at the display panel and wait for calibrating to complete.
Automatic enabling will occur when the celebrating is finished. If rebooting is happening again and again, then get Ecobee helping or a store technician.
Continuous rebooting of the Ecobee thermostat shows an error inside. Get the internal Ecobee error fixed. If it’s the battery, then Ecobee battery replacement is easy. Technician solves battery problem or rebooting problem quickly, so hire one.
Regarding power
The power outage turns the Ecobee off; thus, Ecobee reboots when powered on. Power outage is caused because of a wiring fault from the transformer to your house.
As a power outage occurs, rebooting of Ecobee happens as well. The calibrating will keep happening until it gets stable. If the power source to Ecobee is unstable, then stabilize the Ecobee power source.
As long as Ecobee power is stabilized, the continuous reboot is prevented. No reboot means the calibrating won’t happen. Stabilizing power for Ecobee may require changing the power source. Other power faults include outlets and circuits.
Settings distinction
Humidity level gets set by the Ecobee or yourself and deals with it being a lot of sensors and Ecobee special thermostats. The Ecobee thermostat detects temperature and moisture levels.
The humidity level sometimes being detected is inaccurate for technical reasons, like that of the inaccurate temperature reading.
Ecobee calibrating happens at that time, or you manually set it for calibrating to match the humidity level currently in the house and accurate temperature reading.
Even adjusting manually requires calibrating. Settings are available in Ecobee that specifically suggest calibrating.

The last word
If Ecobee is calibrating, that means both temperature modes have been disabled. The calibrating mode cannot be closed in-between because the Ecobee requires the temperature and knowledge of the current humidity level to work.
Calibrating requires 20 minutes, so you’ll need to do something else while Ecobee calibration completes. You can put manual settings to set the temperature but calibrating will still occur.
