What's the Difference Between Heat and Em Heat?

The emergency heat setting has to be manually switched on and should only be used in temperatures below 30 degrees.

Should I use heat or EM heat?

Short answer: No. Switching your thermostat to emergency heat or “em heat” just because it's cold outside will just raise your energy bills like crazy. Don't use emergency heat mode unless your heat pump stops heating your home altogether. If that happens, contact a professional heat pump repairman for help.
