Honeywell Home X8S Smart Thermostat, Black - X8VMC8B

The Honeywell Home X8S Smart Thermostat elevates climate control with its sleek, intuitive 5-in. touchscreen display, which offers superb visibility and customizable options for themes and colors to match your home's aesthetic. The Honeywell X8S Thermostat features smart sensing occupancy detection, which intelligently adjusts heating and cooling settings to maximize comfort when residents are present and automatically reduces energy usage when the home is empty.

Built for the connected home, the X8S is Matter Certified and offers broad compatibility with major smart platforms, including Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple Home. Users can access and adjust settings remotely using the First Alert app, which also simplifies the management of other compatible Resideo devices. The thermostat is ENERGY STAR certified and rebate-eligible, demonstrating its commitment to energy efficiency by providing monthly usage reports to help homeowners monitor and control costs. The X8S enhances home security by supporting integration with select streaming video doorbells (like Ring and First Alert), allowing occupants to see and communicate with visitors directly from the thermostat display.

C-Wire Required for Installation

To power its advanced smart features and high-resolution display, the Honeywell Home X8S requires a constant 24V power supply via a C-wire (common wire). Before you begin setup, check your existing thermostat wiring to ensure a C-wire is present. If your current system doesn't have one, you will need to utilize a C-wire power adapter or consult a professional installer to complete your smart home upgrade.
