Given what we know, we can say that the home thermostat system does in fact work using a negative feedback loop,
What is a negative feedback loop?
A negative feedback loop is a regulatory system in which a product is produced until there is too much of it, the presence of this increased amount of product then acts as a stimulus to decrease the production.
The home thermostat is a negative feedback loop in that it:
- First generates heat.
- Then the heat reaches the desired temperature.
- More heat is produced.
- The thermostat notices the temperature is above the intended value.
- It stops producing heat.
Therefore, we can confirm that since the thermostat uses a sensor to detect too much heat in the room and uses that to regulate the production of said heat, the home thermostat system does in fact work using a negative feedback loop.
