Great solution for second home...

I live in Chicago and have a rural weekend home about 80 miles away which I keep minimally heated in the winter. Friends recommended a freeze dialer but I don't have a landline so that wouldn't work. I do have broadband service however, so the Honeywell Lyric was a great solution. It was relatively easy to set up and I put it in the basement to keep tabs on the temperature, as well as to detect a water leak, should the water heater blow or something else cause a flood. This has provided me peace of mind, especially during periods where I can't get out there for several weeks.

I also love that there is no monthly monitoring fee or service that I have to subscribe to, as I'm not looking for any more monthly bills to pay.

The only enhancement I would like to see is if it would be possible to take the temperature "on demand" instead of at the predetermined once, twice or three times per day that the system currently supports. But as it is, this device enables me to check on things if we get a cold snap and alert me to a significant drop such that I could probably get out there and address any problem before the house would freeze and create a real nightmare for me.

Horrible company, no wonder they can't compete with Google nest.

This company resideo who runs the Honeywell home stuff is a nightmare to deal with. I bought this used, and they had an asinine policy that they had to get permission from the prior owner to register it to my account. To protect them. From the potential theft of a trivial sensor. Just be aware of you buy used or want the flexibility to sell it. Read full review

Peace of mind

I travel a few times a year out of the country and have my home protected with cameras but have not had the piece of mind of knowing if I have a water leak. Now I do. I am currently away and can monitor the leak detector from any location. It was VERY easy to set up in about five minutes. Download the app,put the batteries in and place the unit in a desired location. In my home the unit is near my washing machine and furnace so if any leaks occur I will get an email notice and then I can contact a son or neighbor to check the house. Highly recommendRead full review

Unobtrusive and powerful

This was insanely easy to set up. Just follow the quick instructions. We set up the unit in one place, and used the cable to put that sensor in a different location about 3 feet away. I don't want any more surprises if our sump pump fails! The noise it makes (when you insert the batteries, it squeals, by the way) is high pitched and not easy to dismiss! The app for my iPhone was very simple to use also.Read full review

Honeywell "Lyric" Water Leak and Freeze Detector

Very easy install; instructions lead you through process from start to finish. Integrates seamlessly with smartphone. Not only will detect leaks and freeze situation, but pushes notifications to smartphone about temperature and humidity conditions at install site. Can also set alerts to notify you via smartphone if temperature gets too low or too high at install site. Well worth the price given that a water leak or frozen pipe will cost you substantially more.Read full review

Great leak detector

it was easy to setup once phone was on the 2.4ghz network. It won't work on 5G. Love that it has a base to detect water on the floor and a cord to go in the sump pump basin to detect rising water. Also daily checks of humidity and temps and simply to use app.Read full review

Very easy to install and configure

It is very easy to install and configure. I have installed two units and they both are sending temperature and humidity to my iPhone. I don't know yet how good they are in detecting water-leaks. I have been using Honeywell Wi-Fi thermostats for over five years and home security system and I love all the Honeywell products.Read full review

Every home needs one

Have not put it to the test yet, but certain that time will come and when it does it will save me a lot of time and expense in clean up.

I bought two of these devices. They are easy to set up.

Cool IOT Gadget.

Got a bad junction on one of my water heaters, and a bad humidity problem. This little gizzmo puts my mind at ease a little. Very user friendly, and well designed. I'd but another maybe for the attic if I can find a deal under $40 like this one was.Read full review

Outstandingly device.

A must have for a sound piece of mode when away from home. Detects water and sends you mobile notifications as well as email notifications. Updates up to 3 times a day of temps and humidity readings. Most importantly it has a range setting that will provide an immediate alert should your temp or humidity fall or increase above your desired range. Read full review
