Ecobee Smart Thermostat Premium with sensors stands out for app control, Alexa features, and room-by-room comfort tuning. The sensors can help balance hot and cold spots, track occupancy, and switch between bedroom and living room settings, especially in homes with uneven temperatures or when traveling. Setup and scheduling matter, since the sensors mainly influence comfort schedules and placement can affect results. Reported drawbacks include disconnects, glitchy software, weak battery life on older sensors, and limited energy savings for some homes.

Common Questions (4)

  • Yes, the sensors can detect occupancy and feed a blended temperature into scheduled comfort settings, and they work well in homes with uneven temperatures or upstairs bedrooms. Manual temperature changes ignore the custom sensor targets, so the best results come from setting up a schedule and letting the thermostat run automatically.

  • Some units stay connected for years and only drop when the battery dies, but others report constant disconnects or poor sensor performance. Placement and interference can matter, and the sensors use 900MHz, so nearby interference may be the cause when they misbehave.

  • If you do not need remote temperature sensors, an Aqara Smart Thermostat is suggested instead. The ecobee's main advantage in these comments is the sensor-based comfort control, so the sensors are a key part of the value.

  • It may not noticeably reduce bills for everyone, but it is convenient for remote control and can help manage temperatures more precisely. It can also support utility energy-savings programs that offer gift certificates, such as signup and seasonal rewards where available.

The sensors died fast on my current ecobee which is an older model. For some reason, my ecobee is super glitchy. The UI is also awful. I'm probably going to switch to Honeywell

The sensors do work. Depending on the model, they can be a little inaccurate. The newer ones do a tad better than the v1s.

As for them actually working. They really only factor in with scheduled comfort settings. Manually setting the temperature ignores the sensors' custom targets and goes with an average.

The best way to work with this thermostat is to aim to never touch it once you set it up. Really take the time to learn your house routine and tune the parameters for your schedule and you should be golden

Unless you have a zoned system the sensors are basically useless because if you place in a cold spot that'll get it to normal temp but your other rooms would be a few °'s warmer i have the state5 which is 1 before this and its been great to me from accessing alexa to change temp turn on off lights it shows the weather for the day everything i could wish for out of a thermostat
When I travel its nice to know the basement (where the water lines are) doesnt get below freezing.

They cut api access and stop residential units from syncing with each other...
would not recommend the nerfed version.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank

I have a way older ecobee and I love the sensors. Little surprised by the negativity here. They only disconnect when the battery dies and do a great job of helping the HVAC keep the house at a temp I want; I set it to track the bedroom sensors at night, livingroom during day, it catches when I'm gone and changes the settings, etc.

Well they worked great for us in our old home that had much different temperatures between the ground floor where the thermostat was located and the bedrooms upstairs.

The Ecobee thermostat is great, but the sensor's never really worked for me.
I guess that would depend on your expectations for the sensors. The sensors also have thresholds that can be adjusted if they are not doing what you want. FYI.

Just found out I need a thermostat and just in time to barely miss this deal. A shame it couldn't last until end of the month. Does anyone know if it is likely Costco will offer the $199 Ecobee
Premium + 2 sensor deal again anytime soon?

(I'm in the same situation and have the same question. Would love to hear it's periodic or something)

A little patience paid off! The deal is back and even better at $189.99!
