The Lyric Thermostat: Home Comfort and Energy Savings in a Smart Thermostat

Your smartphone is your homebase. It links to your fitness tracker and sends prompts to get up and walk or guzzle more agua. It made baby monitors obsolete and shows you an image of your sleeping dumpling, as well as their heart rate and oxygen stats. It joins you to the outside world through social media, as well as calling and texting. It’s where everybody reads their news, where they keep their boarding passes for their flights, and how they pay for their morning Starbucks. 

And now it controls your home. 

The Honeywell Lyric Round Wi-Fi Thermostat adapts to your life to control your heating and cooling system so that you don’t have to. But you can, if you choose, using – that’s right – your smartphone. 

Your smartphone can control your Lyric Thermostat no matter where you are, and the Lyric also integrates with SamSung SmartThings, Apple HomeKit, and Apple Watch. 

After awhile, the Lyric will learn your household’s behaviors – when you turn the air up, when you turn it down, when you are at the house, and when you leave. It has the capability to activate geofencing so your Lyric can really see where you are and, once it calculates how long it takes your furnace to heat your home or your A/C system to cool it, it will determine when you are that length of time away from the house and automatically adjust your heating and cooling systems so that it is the ideal temperature when you arrive. 

It even alerts you when the air filter needs to be switched! 

All of these features don’t just save precious time and peace of mind, they save you cash. Since the Lyric Thermostat learns all your home comfort behaviors, it optimizes your heating and cooling systems to save you money on your heating and cooling bills. When it knows that during the heating season you’re going to be gone from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m., the Lyric will automatically adjust your furnace temperature lower and then, when it sees you are 60 minutes from home, it starts turning the temperature back up to prepare for your return home. 

Does it only take your heating system 35 minutes to get your home to the perfect temperature? No problem! The Lyric learns that, as well, and will stand by until 5:25 p.m. to initiate turning the heater back on but it gives you the same result – home comfort with energy savings.
