You’ll find a comprehensive list of commands below.
If you’re just starting out, here are a few to start with. Just Activate Siri by holding your iPhone home button for 3 seconds, and try one of the following:
- “What is my thermostat temperature” – To get the temperature of your thermostat.
- “Set my thermostat to 20 degrees” – to set your thermostat to 20 degrees. The ecobee thermostat is smart enough to know whether you have Celsius or Fahrenheit as your preferred temperature unit of measurement.
- “What is the temperature in <sensor name>” – to get the temperature of one of your sensors.
- “Set my thermostat to Heat/Cool/Auto/Off” – to set your thermostat to a system mode.
- “I’m leaving” – to set your thermostat to Away comfort settings.
- “Turn on <switch name>” – to have your Switch+ turn on the lights.
- “Turn off <switch name>” – to have your Switch+ turn off the lights.
- “Is <switch name> on/off?” – to find out if your lights are on or off.
