The sleek Honeywell Home ElitePRO smart thermostat helps contractors deliver next-level comfort and convenience. With Resideo's First Alert® app, homeowners can set up energy-saving features, manage schedules and add optional Smart Room Sensors. Key features and benefits include:
- Large, customizable touchscreen: The sleek, five-inch touchscreen enables intuitive temperature programming and customized idle screens that display information the homeowner wants to see – including a five-day weather forecast, digital clocks, and IAQ information – and offers design themes and color combinations to match home décor.
- Video doorbell streaming and intercom: Homeowners can view live video streams from First Alert® or Ring® doorbells2 and speak with visitors directly from the thermostat.
- IAQ monitoring and control: It’s compatible with a broad range of HVAC equipment3 and HVAC installers can easily upgrade a home’s IAQ without running additional wires using the equipment interface module. The smart thermostat monitors humidity, tracks volatile organic compounds, and estimates carbon dioxide levels.

Available in bold black or classic white models, the ElitePRO smart thermostat supports a wide range of HVAC system configurations, has dual-band WiFi compatibility, is Matter certified, and compatible with Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant and Apple Home for easy voice control.
