Features
Notifications and reports
- Home IQ –Get a monthly savings report and compare your results to other homes in the area. It’s like an energy audit at no extra cost.
- Alerts & Reminders –The app notifies you of sudden temperature drops that could result in frozen or burst pipes and when the system needs maintenance.
Advanced thermostat capabilities
- Smart Recovery
As ecobee3 lite gets to know your home’s heating and cooling patterns, it learns how long it takes to reach your desired temperature. If you routinely wake up at 6 a.m., Smart Recovery will start heating and cooling your home in advance so it’s comfortable when you wake up.
- AC Overcool to Dehumidify
This feature will use your air conditioner to lower the indoor humidity to keep you cool and comfortable if you don’t have a dehumidifier.
- Supports two-stage heating and cooling
ecobee thermostats are optimized for one or two-stage heating and cooling equipment. Staging control lets you get the level of comfort you like while lowering energy use.
- Fan Dissipation
ecobee3 lite automatically runs the fan after a cycle to maximize heating, cooling, and dehumidification.
