Abstract

An object of the present invention is to provide a method of controlling a heating apparatus that is capable of automatically controlling a heating-off temperature and a heating-on temperature according to an operation environment such that upper and lower variations of a room temperature set by a user are reduced on the basis of the room temperature, thereby allowing the user to feel comfortable. In order to achieve the object of the present invention, there is provided a method of controlling a heating apparatus that controls the start/stop operation of the heating apparatus on the basis of a room temperature set by a user. In this case, a temperature when the heating apparatus is operated to increase the room temperature and the operation of the heating apparatus is stopped is set as a temperature that is obtained by subtracting a heating-off temperature at a cycle immediately before a current cycle by a compensation value determined according to overshoot that has occurred at the cycle immediately before the current cycle, and a temperature when the operation of the heating apparatus is stopped to decrease the room temperature and the heating apparatus is operated is set as a temperature that is obtained by adding the heating-on temperature at the cycle immediately before the current cycle and a compensation value determined according to undershoot that has occurred at the cycle immediately before the current cycle, such that a difference between the measured room temperature and the room temperature set by the user is minimized.
