Abstract
A system and method of identifying heat/cool ingress with a climate control system. In one embodiment the method includes receiving first and second indoor temperature values that represent ambient temperature of a first climate-controlled space of a building at different times and receiving an outdoor temperature value that represents ambient temperature of an environment external to the building. A first temperature gradient value is calculated based on the first and second indoor temperature values. A first expected temperature gradient value is selected from a plurality of expected temperature gradient values stored in memory using the outdoor temperature value. A difference is determined between the first temperature gradient value and the first expected temperature gradient value. A first signal is generated if the difference between the first temperature gradient value and the first expected temperature gradient value exceeds a predetermined threshold value.
