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

Your smartphone is command central. It links to your fitness tracker and sends prompts to get up and walk or drink more agua. It took the place of baby monitors and shows you a picture of your sleeping dumpling, as well as their heart rate and oxygen measurements. It connects you to the rest of the world through SnapChat, Instagram, and Twitter, as well as calling and texting. It’s where everyone gets their news, where they check-in for their flights, and how they pay for their morning Starbucks. 

And now it controls your home. 

The Honeywell Lyric Round Wi-Fi Thermostat adjusts to your life to control your heating and cooling system so that you don’t have to. But you can, of course, using – you know it – your smartphone. 

Whether you are at home or out for the day (or week!), your smartphone can adjust your Lyric Thermostat, and the Lyric also integrates with Apple HomeKit, Apple Watch, and Samsung SmartThings. 

After awhile, the Lyric will learn your family’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 ability to use geofencing so your Lyric can actually see where you are and, once it learns how long it takes your furnace to warm your home or your air conditioning 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 step inside. 

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

All of these features don’t just save you time and stress, they save you money. Because the Lyric Thermostat learns all your home comfort behaviors, it adjusts your heating and cooling systems to save you money on energy costs. 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 lower your home’s temperature and then, when it sees you’re about an hour away 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 a comfortable temperature? No worries! The Lyric understands that, as well, and will wait until 5:25 p.m. to begin turning the furnace back on but it provides the same result – home comfort with energy savings.
