ecobee Smart Thermostat Premium
The most advanced smart thermostat on the market, featuring a built-in air quality monitor that tracks VOCs and CO2 levels. Radar-based occupancy detection knows when you're home without relying on motion alone, and the 3.5-inch touchscreen displays weather, air quality, and energy reports at a glance. Built-in Alexa and Siri let you control your home hands-free. The included SmartSensor monitors temperature in the rooms that matter most, and Weather Impact technology pre-heats or pre-cools based on forecasts.
