by Smart technology is finding its way into every area of our homes. The “internet of things” now includes our refrigerators, ovens, microwaves, front door locks, and thermostats. Imagine being able to control the temperature of your home with a remote location by using a Wi-Fi connection to adjust your thermostat. Now you can do this with the smart thermostats available on the market today.
A traditional thermostat only allows you to set one temperature for the entire home. One of the other great things about smart thermostats is they let you adjust the temperature in specific rooms or “zones” of your home. In other words, you can set different temperatures for your bedroom, bathroom, living room, and kitchen. You simply need to find a smart thermostat which is designed for multiple zones.
Below are the top 5 best smart thermostats for multiple zones.
1) Ecobee4
If you want a smart thermostat for multiple zones which has a lot of features, then try out the Ecobee4. If you have a smart home network filled with other smart devices, the Ecobee4 can easily be integrated into that system. Thanks to the Alexa technology included with the Ecobee4, it can be voice-activated and controlled. The thermostat can connect to your current HVAC system, and there are instructions included to show you how to do this. But you might find the installation to be too complicated if you’re not a technical person. In that case, you’ll need to hire a professional.
2) Nest Learning Thermostat
The Nest Learning Thermostat is made by a brand you probably recognize. The stainless-steel exterior may have a simple black and white color design, but the display screen gives you a decent resolution of 480 pixels. There are buttons along the outer ring which can be used to control the thermostat. Along with measuring temperature, the thermostat has sensors for measuring ambient lighting, motion, humidity, and more. It is a compact design which can go virtually anywhere on your wall. It is easy to control the thermostat with the mobile app. There is no remote control available with it.
3) Honeywell Lyric T5
The Honeywell Lyric T5 is an economical smart thermostat that has multiple zones. Smart schedules can be created manually since the device cannot learn schedules automatically. It also cannot detect when someone enters a different zone of the house. But what it can do is communicate with virtual assistants like Google Assistant, Alexa, and Siri. You don’t need any C-wires to connect the thermostat to your HVAC system, which means the installation is so much easier. It would be nicer if it had motion sensors, but that’s okay for some people.
4) Tado Smart Thermostat
The Tado Smart Thermostat is from a brand name you have probably never heard of before. However, it is an affordable thermostat which comes with several advanced features. It might not look that way from the outside because the thermostat is designed minimalistic in nature, with just a white box and one button. But most of the controls are done through the mobile app, so you don’t need a lot of physical buttons on it. You can control the geolocation with the app too. You may need a technician to help you install the thermostat.
