QuestionWhat is the difference between this lite and the original? In other words why is this considered the lite version? Is it because it lacks some of the features in the original? I see that it does not have the room module s

QuestionDoes the Ecobee Lite Therrmostat go back on after a power outage or do you physically have to reset it?
Asked 9 years ago by Laura.
- Answer The common wire is what powers the thermostat so when the power goes out the thermostat will turn off but all your settings are saved and when the power comes back on the thermostat will automatically power back on and you will not have to reset it

QuestionDoes this require to use the C-wire?
Asked 8 years ago by Tech.
- Answer Yes, but it comes with an adapter that you connect to replace the c-wire if you don't have a c-wire, this thermostat allowed me to lock my aux strip out so I could get my $550 rebate from electric company.

QuestionIs it possible to set the thermostat to, lets say 75 cooling and 70 for heat and just leave it there, without changing from cooling to heat and back again?
Asked 8 years ago by BobP.
- Answer Yes, here in Texas it gets hot when it shouldn't so I keep heat/cool set to 69 (heat will kick on when this temp in reached and 75 (a/c will kick on) all automatically. If you do change it manually just remember to stop the hold set temp.

QuestionDoes this work with the Google Home?
Asked 8 years ago by Hennaluna.
- Answer Right now there's no support for Google Home. Apple HomeKit, Samsung SmartThings, Amazon's Alexa, and IFTT are the supports smart home platforms right now. Honestly though the ecobee app looks sleek and works well. You also don't have to ensure you're right by the speaker each time you want to change something on the ecobee with the app. Kind of the reason I don't like Alexa either you have your home littered with speakers or you limit functionality to one space in your home.

QuestionIf you have two separate units (upstairs and downstairs) but only buy one Ecobee 3 and the sensors that can fill up all the rooms of the house. How happens to the second unit upstairs? Do I have to buy another Ecobee 3 Lite for second unit?
Asked 9 years ago by RaloFunny.
- Answer Not sure what you mean by two units. You have 2 heat pumps or one heat pump (outside unit) and blower (inside unit). I would guess if you have 2 outside units and one thermostat before then they are both linked. The sensors relay temp of every room they are in, allowing a more precise activation of a/c verses it being cold/hot near the thermostat and kicking on the a/c/heat even though the temp in other areas of the house are fine.
