Honeywell Home smart home overview

United StatesChecked 11 November 2026

Honeywell Home is a thermostat and comfort brand sold by Resideo, the US company that Honeywell spun off in 2018 and that uses the Honeywell Home name under a long-term licence. It covers T-series and Lyric thermostats, the evohome zoning system in Europe, water leak detectors and related sensors. Which app and which cloud applies depends on the product and the region.

Where Honeywell Home fits in a smart home

Most connected Honeywell Home products work through Resideo's cloud and a phone app. Wi-Fi thermostats such as the T9 and the newer X2S and X8S use Wi-Fi, the T6 Pro has a Z-Wave version for hubs, and the X2S and X8S add Matter. Several apps share the brand: Resideo Smart Home (formerly called Honeywell Home), First Alert by Resideo for newer models, Total Connect Comfort for older US models, and Total Connect Comfort International for evohome in Europe.

That suits people who want a mainstream thermostat that links to Alexa, Google, Apple Home and SmartThings, or who want evohome multi-zone heating in Europe. It is weaker for local control: Home Assistant and openHAB integrations run through the cloud, some need a separate developer account, and the right app for a given model is confusing because of the regional and product-line splits.
