Honeywell's Lyric: New Smart Thermostat goes beyond efficient mobile comfort control and energy management


Both the new Lyric from Honeywell and Nest, now owned by Google, are quality devices. But we've put both to the test and if you're looking to control your home's heating and cooling from a smartphone (or tablet), we prefer Honeywell's Lyric and here's why:


  • Nest can do the job if you have a predictable lifestyle. As one Nest user says, "I find myself arguing with it more than I think I should. The scheduling thing is great for people who have totally regular schedules - if they exist." Lyric, on the other hand, overcomes the 'scheduling' problem with geofencing, a comfort and energy conservation tool. It senses when a member of the household is seven miles away for suburbanites or 500 feet for those living in an urban setting
  • Lyric has a built in Wi-Fi-based feature that takes into account both internal and external settings based on outside conditions. The newer Nests are now able to take humidity into account, but that's it. Both send a helpful monthly energy use report
  • Lyric's On/Auto/Circulate fan settings can keep air moving throughout your home, while the Nest doesn't
Love your iphone? It's worth noting that Honeywell is also partnering with Apple with a goal of making its iOS the hub for all connected devices with its HomeKit working with locks, lights, door and thermostats, and undoubtedly a lot more.


To learn more about Lyric, please contact a Comfort Specialist at Gault Energy. We'll answer your questions and provide you with the information you need. Smart technology for today's needs.
