The average air-conditioning unit is kept running by the thermostat while cooling until the target temperature is reached, then it turns off. Compressor coils can generate cold air for 10-15 minutes after shutting down.
The Nest Learning Thermostat uses this Airwave technology to shut the compressor off a few minutes before the target temperature is reached. The fan runs by itself until the control temperature is reached saving energy and you money. There is no loss of comfort.
