I have several of the Honeywell T6 Pro units in different properties. They work very well. The downside is that they seem to be getting harder to find as Honeywell has discontinued making them as you can see on the linked page.
I used to put a lot of faith into Fakespot, not so much anymore. I’ve seen it go pretty bad both ways.
I do see a couple of the reviews that state that you can’t control the HVAC fan over Matter. Is this the case with Matter in general, or perhaps just this thermostat?
Many thermostats work to maintain temp at +- xx degrees of set temperature
T6 setting determines min/max on cycles to maintain temp(or something similar).I though it ran too often when I first got it but over time realized it worked more effectively.
@finity, @HarlemSquirrel is correct that it is not exposed via the Z-Wave configuration. I have a few of these thermostats and the ones where the thermostat was configured at device to show .5 degrees bubbles that all the way to HA itself, but I can find no Z-Wave configuration option for it.
The ones where it was not enabled at the device do not bring the half degree increments into HA.
These are on sale on Amazon for 30% off today. In light of all the issues Google neat is having lately, I bought one. Here’s to hoping it works in Home Assistant. Has anyone else purchased one of these and found success?
I have 5 Honeywell T6 Z-Wave thermostats now that I got used from Amazon and E-Bay. I haven’t had the heat on yet but setup was smooth. The first one that’s been running all summer for AC did great so now I’ve removed all the Nest thermostats.
I got it installed last night and aside from the fact that my thermostat was previously mounted to an electrical junction box and this one can’t actually do that without retrofitting; it installed just fine and works just fine inside home assistant via Matter. For $70, can’t beat it!
