Custom thermostat preset for entire calendar blocks (non-occupied periods)
Problem Statement:
When a property is blocked on the calendar (e.g., for maintenance, owner stays, or cleaning), the thermostat only maintains the adjusted temperature for a few hours before reverting
There's no way to set a thermostat preset that persists for the entire duration of a calendar block
This is particularly problematic when the owner needs to stay in the property for maintenance work and wants consistent temperature control
Current Workaround:
Manually adjusting the thermostat and hoping it doesn't revert
No reliable way to maintain a custom temperature for extended blocked periods
Impact:
Discomfort during maintenance work or owner stays
Inconsistent temperature control when the property is blocked but not occupied by a guest
Extra time and effort managing thermostat settings manually
Proposed Solution:
Allow hosts to set a custom thermostat preset that applies for the entire duration of a calendar block, regardless of whether it's occupied by a guest or not
This preset should persist until the block ends or a new booking starts
Unlock:
Hosts can maintain comfortable temperatures during maintenance work, owner stays, or any extended calendar block
Full control over thermostat settings for non-occupied periods
Consistent temperature management without manual intervention
