I purchased this thermostat for a summer home in New Yorks Adirondack Mountains. During the winter months I shut off the water and drain all my waterlines. I would keep the heat on at 44 degrees F. This new thermostat has me wasting heat and energy by not going below 50 degrees. I will now be paying more to heat a house I am not in. The convenience of the controllable thermostat is nice but things like the lowest setting are not explained anywhere.
The thermostat functions fine, however the text is too small and fine to easily read, there’s no color indication of what mode it is in or where it is cooling or heating or whether the fan is running at the moment. The Apple Watch app is much more informative than the thermostat’s display.
I had the thermostat professionally installed in our second home and there were no problems with the installation or operation of the HVAC system. Installing and using the Resideo app was also extremely easy. I now have no problem checking the interior temp, setting the thermostat temp or changing from heating cooling remotely. I am totally pleased with the Honeywell thermostat and the Resideo app.
Nice thermostat. Does everything it should. My only complaint is the app. It doesn’t show the accurate weather outside unless I reboot my phone. I think it’s because my phone is old—iPhone SE.
