Honeywell Home X2S smart thermostat Seamlessly Integrates into Modern Smart Homes
Complementing today’s smart home environments, the global company states that Honeywell Home thermostat home heating users save on average 22% and home cooling users save 17% on their HVAC energy consumption when using the recommended scheduling feature consistently.
In addition to the energy savings the product provides, the Honeywell Home X2S smart thermostat also offers:
- Matter and smart home compatibility: Compatible with Amazon Alexa, Google Home and Apple Home, users can also control the thermostat’s setpoints and schedules via Resideo’s First Alert app, the smart ecosystem for Resideo’s connected Honeywell Home and First Alert branded solutions. The First Alert app enables an automatic away mode that detects when all users have left the house and delivers optimized energy savings until they return, and users can enroll in energy management programs offered by many local utilities.
- Simple installation, programming and use: Made with Honeywell Home Thermostat Technology, the UWP wall-mounting plate offers simple upgrades between devices. Featuring a large, bright display, Honeywell suggests the X2S Smart Thermostat is quick to set up and effortless to schedule using the device’s interface or from the app.
- Indoor air quality awareness: Resideo stresses that in order to help users understand their indoor air quality (IAQ), the new smart thermostat monitors humidity and offers an air filter replacement reminder to ensure the heating/cooling system runs effectively.
The Honeywell Home X2S smart thermostat will be available in U.S. and Canadian retail stores sometime in spring 2025 for $79.99 (U.S. MSRP)
