Honeywell T6 Z-Wave Thermostat Review

Honeywell T6 Z-Wave Thermostat Review
9 10 0 1
For short-term rental hosts, this could be a really great option for you to consider. It supports all types of HVAC setups, and connects via Z-Wave which eliminates most of the concerns with smart thermostats. It's added battery backup is an excellent feature making it one of the top thermostats we recommend. The biggest drawback of this device is the inability to set temperature limits, which can be a major issue in short-term rental scenarios.
