A bit difficult to install due to it needing a different layout on the wires but after some trial and error, it’s installed and it works perfect. Connection to WiFi was a breeze and I now control my A/C and heater from my phone.

I really like the app and the ability to turn on the heat in my shop from anywhere at any time. It works very well and will let you make schedules easily.I had to add the 24V “common” wire to my wiring to make it work.The only thing I wish was that it would let me set the temperature to 45F. But, 50F is the lowest it will let me set.

What can I say, it is a thermostat and it looks nice, I bought it for these reasons. I bought it in April of 2023 right after I had a leak repaired and the old thermostat looked very dated in a freshly painted room. It installed very easily and It really does look nice and new in the room. Once up I was pretty happy with it. I set a schedule and that’s where the enjoyment stopped. As time went on I began to wonder if I had a leak or something, I had one in the past after all. It would not cool, and the temperature in the house would rise. I’d set it to 71 but the temp would slide degree by degree to 77 (which is what it was scheduled to hit at 11pm) and stay there for the night. Suddenly waking up freezing in the morning. The pillows in the bedroom were muggy and damp intermittently. Some days we’d sit at 77 degrees for no reason. The heat pump is running near 24/7 trying to cool the house….Luckily I am pretty DIY and troubleshooting for hobby so I bought gauges to monitor my unit and learned what Superheat and subcooling are. I determined that I don’t have a leak! So what is it? I have an energy saver cycling box from the power company, I have that taken off, it takes a few weeks for them to do it. but my problem persists! I’m going mad, inject dye to search for leaks? I change filters, etc etc. anything i can. I’m debating draining the unit, perhaps the repair guy put in too much or incompatible oil!I begin to suspect the thermostat, all the internet says it couldn’t be the thermostat, no no It could never.. But I say I say you know what let’s reset the thing and strip away features. So I did, Reset it, turned off scheduling, wifi, and anything else “smart”, got into the special menu and found “adaptive recovery” looked it up and determined this and scheduling were my problems! Because I wanted 72 from 8am to 5pm but the 77 at 11pm. The stupid “smart” algorithm thought that meant I want to be 72 in 8am and for the rest of the day slowly drift to 77 by 11pm and then freeze us half to death at 5am to be 72 again by 8am. If I set my schedule to all 72 degrees it will never leave 72 even on a “hold”. I assume because of crap programming that adaptive recovery does not take into account the “hold” or manual input/changes which is bullcrap.I decided to see how badly programmed this algorithm was. I put a schedule on with crazy temperatures like 50F at 8am and 90f at 5am or something. The stupid thing would actually turn the HEAT ON to after 8am so that it be 90F by 11pm even though the cool setting was set to be 50F at that time. what a dumb program. Heating when it should be cooling!I was smart enough to figure this out and disable these features, I won’t even use the schedule now Im too afraid too Which is same because I really wanted to let the AC drift off temp at night but its not worth it to trigger the “smart” alogrhtium’s stupidity which seems to have the ability to override your manual temperature settings even without being turned on. I see no where to fully disable this “smart” features.I feel bad for anyone that calls HVAC specialists to try to fix these issues and they get talked into the a whole new system because of some programmers’ poor programming skills.

I just got it installed, so we haven’t lived with it yet. I like what I see so far. I bought this for 3 reasons: Our utility is offering a $100 rebate on upgrading to a smart thermostat and this one is on the list, so with the rebate it is costing me about $12 – good enough price point to dump my 8 year old touch screen programmable. 2. I was getting frustrated with the programming of the old thermostat, I couldn’t get the program to match our life well enough. 3. The geo-fencing feature means that I don’t have to be able to predict our days in advance, the thermostat makes it comfortable when we are actually home and saves money when we aren’t. The smallest circle I could make is about a half mile radius (my wife works a mile from home).Some things I learned since I bought it.It is compatible with Google Assistant so you can control it with voice commands from your phone alone. I haven’t gotten this to work yet, but it is supposed to. I may have to chat with tech support again.If you don’t use the geo-fencing, you can program it manually 5 and 2, 5-1-1, each day separate, or all days the same. There are 4 time periods in the day; wake, work, home, sleep. If you are using Geo-fencing, then it has home, away, and sleep. You can also choose to not have a schedule and just make it the same temperature all the time and adjust it manually.Your router has to be on 2.4GHz.You have to have the C wire and it has to be connected to the thermostat and furnace or there is no power for the thermostat. Older systems didn’t use the C wire (blue on standard 18/2 thermostat wire) so you might not have 5 wires to the thermostat. Some newer thermostats didn’t use the C wire and used batteries to power the programmable part of the thermostat.It will automatically switch from heating to cooling, but it is a choice and the factory default is for that to be manual.It uses the internet connection to know the outside temp and humidity to anticipate the need for heat or cool. It displays on the app and I wish it displayed on the thermostat.The fan has settings for on, off, auto, and circulate (I haven’t figured out what that is).You can control the thermostat with 4 different users, and each of them can have a different geo-fence circle. If you do have multiple users, each has to install the lyric app and create an account. The manual doesn’t tell you this: when you first set up the thermostat, you do it from one phone. Then from that phone, you add the other users before they can connect to the thermostat from their app.If all the users are away, but someone is house-sitting, they aren’t stuck with your away temperature. They can control the thermostat manually just by touching the screen. You can also set a vacation time by start and end date so it will stay on the away temperature 24 hours a day. You get an alert on your phone if you are away and the status changes. You can also set a notification for it to alert you if the temperature goes above or below limits you set, so you know if you have a power failure, or ran out of fuel.The T6 is essentially the same thermostat, but packaged and designed for new construction contractor installations. The T6 only comes in white, the T5 only comes in black. The Lyric round is the one that has the led lights that bathe the wall with a color to tell you what mode it is in.

I was looking to upgrade my original (non wifi) home thermostat with a wirless version. We bough the home new in 2019 and it only came with a Honeywell TH4110U2005 ProSeries thermostat. I knew I could replace the thermostat but didn’t want to have to re-wire and affix a totally different wall plate/wiring plug onto our wall. I was hoping I could find another Honeywell version that might be a direct match for our particular wall plate/wiring setup. I am somewhat of a handyman and did not want to spend the money on using a professional to install a newer wifi version. So I did a little Amazon searching and finally found this Honeywell Home Intelligent T5 (wifi) version. It looked almost identical in the provided pictures. All measurements seemed to match up with what my tapemeasure told me as well. The advertisement did say this new thermostat required a “C wire” in its hook up. I had no clue what a “C wire” was. Apparently if your original wiring/plate doesn’t include a C wire an additional wiring kit was needed to make it work. So, after I pulled the old thermostat off its mount, I could see how the wiring plate was configured. The mounting plate looked identical to what was shown in the advertisement for the new thermostat. I could also see a wire spot in the wiring/plate that said “C”. There was in fact a wire going to the post labeled as C. Intuitively I was fairly confident that this new thermostat would be directly compatible with the old wiring/plate mount on our wall so I placed the order. After the item arrived I went to work and it took probably 30 minutes to unbox, read (somewhat) the instruction manual, pop the thermostat into the wall mount (it fit perfectly), download the device app, set it up with our home wifi, and then get the cooling/heating parameters all set up like we wanted them. The only thing I forgot to do was flip off the circuit breakers (like instructions said) to the HVAC before I popped out the old thermostat and inserted the new one. But I had shut off the HVAC system using the old thermostat before I pulled it out. Everything worked fine so I don’t think anything got messed up as a result. We have since been using this new thermostat for about a week now and I am pleased with its performance, compatibility with the older thermostat setup, and reasonable price. The app on my phone allows me to control everything while I am away from home as well as a geofencing feature. The thermostat is doing everything that was advertised and I expected. I am happy with the purchase.

I should have come on here much sooner than now for an update. But I can honestly say this is now a 5 star. I’ve saved so much money since switching and I haven’t had any issues. Performance wise this works great👍.I just installed this today, so this isn’t so much based on performance as much as the installation process. I had read the reviews prior to buying this and I could tell I might be in for a hard time. I can tell you that for the few hours it’s been running, it works excellent and I like everything about it. But you shouldn’t trust a review based on so little time.So let’s say, assuming there are no future problems, for the $$, I thinks it’s remarkable. Also, the app set up is so smooth and easy you’ll have everything you need ready in minutes.The biggest concern you’ll have with set up is whether or not you have the “C” wire. If you do not, there is a relatively simple solution. You’ll have to get into your furnace though so it’s going to take a bit more of your time. And your patience. Can’t stress that enough. Honeywell provides you with an extra wire so I assume there are many people who will run into this problem if you have an older house/condo. The thermostat itself doesn’t require the extra wire, but your furnace will. I’m not the most handiest of men, but I figured it out pretty quickly. I could take a few minutes explaining what goes where and how,but the best thing to do is to go onto YouTube and type in “smart thermostat no C wire”. There are a few people who will walk you through it, but even Honeywell themselves have a video for this (that’s what I used). The narrator talks a bit slow (remember, patience) but I found it to be realsimple as she explained it.The other problem I had was with the WiFi connection. I kept getting an error that it wasn’t connecting. I don’t have a sure-fire solution to this but I had to reset the thermostat two times and on the third try, it made the connection. This lasted about a 1/2 hour trying to figure out why it wasn’t connecting. Still don’t know exactly why it was so difficult, but in the end with persistence (and luck?) it’s now working.If I do have problems with the performance I will come back here to let people know. Because for everything it does (geofencing!), and the ease of use of the app, it seems like a no-brainer to get it for the price. And if the performance is good for a while, I’m going to change the rating to 5 stars.

Looked great but unfortunately I didn’t do my research and I didn’t have an active C wire for power so I had to return.

So Far So Good!! Stop Looking PURCHASE

The media could not be loaded. The Honeywell Home T5 is a good option for those looking for a basic, affordable smart thermostat. It’s easy to Install and use, has some handy features like WiFi capability, and can save you money on energy. If you looking for an upgrade to your Honeywell Home that super easy to install then look no further.

So easy to connect to alexa. I couldn’t install it myself. I can control via my phone or alexa.
