Honeywell Focus Pro Thermostat Review
In a perfect world, you’d never have a bad hair day, a stressful work day or be forced to come home to a freezing cold or sweltering hot house. While the Honeywell Focus Pro Thermostat can’t take care of your hair or career issues, it can keep your home climate controlled, comfortable and energy efficient every single minute of the day or night.
It does this by letting you program in your temperature preferences and then adjusting them accordingly. You can set up one program for the weekdays and another for weekends. You can even change the settings when you’re away from
home if you add on the Honeywell Total Connect Comfort Services app.
Even without the app, the Honeywell Focus Pro Thermostat has some pretty snazzy features:
-
Wireless or Wired Options
Go for a basic wired model with Wi-Fi so you can use the Total Connect app, a wired model without Wi-Fi and forget the app, or a wireless version you can put anywhere and access the app as well as additional perks.
-
Easy-read Display
Unlike other thermostats that may make you squint or scramble for a light switch, you can easily read the big, backlit screen in all types of lighting.
-
Easy-find Instructions
Long-lost instruction manuals are a thing of the past, thanks to the pull-out manual built into the device.
-
Easy-change Battery
Flip open the door and pop in a new battery without taking the whole dang thing apart.
Easy is pretty much the bottom line with this device, although “highly advanced” runs a close second. Easy is pretty much the bottom line with this device, although “highly advanced” runs a close second.
Highly Advanced Perk
Take advantage of the highly advanced aspect, at no additional cost or monthly fees, by opting for the Honeywell Total Connect Comfort Services app. You can use the app with the wired or wireless version, provided Wi-Fi is set up with the wired console. The app lets you review, adjust and control your at-home climate, no matter where you are, through an Internet connection. It also alerts you if your home gets too hot or too cold while you’re away.
Two More Optional Perks with Wireless Version
- Add the Wireless Outdoor Air Sensor for a display of the outdoor temperature
- Add the Portable Comfort Control to adjust comfort levels as you move from room to room
How to Get It
Indoor Air Quality can install the wired version of the Honeywell Focus Pro Thermostat for $250 to $275. Wireless models require an additional module at an additional cost. Call IAQ for more info or to schedule an appointment.
