The ecobee Smart Sensor 2 Pack is designed to complement ecobee smart thermostats by detecting occupancy and temperature in different rooms. This allows the thermostat to adjust heating or cooling dynamically, ensuring that rooms are comfortable when occupied and energy isn’t wasted on empty spaces. Installation is straightforward, with sensors that can be placed on a magnetic stand or mounted on walls using adhesive brackets. Their wireless design and range of up to 60 feet enable flexible placement throughout the home, even through walls and floors. Beyond comfort and energy savings, the sensors also enhance home security by detecting unexpected motion. When paired with the ecobee Smart Security subscription, users receive real-time alerts via the ecobee app, providing peace of mind when away from home. While the sensors offer great benefits, they require an ecobee smart thermostat to operate and the security features need an additional subscription. They are best suited for users already invested in the ecobee ecosystem who want to maximize comfort, efficiency, and security.
