New Ecobee thermostat with air quality monitor and onboard Siri leaks online

Sensible house producer Ecobee seems to be prepping a new and fancier variation of its Smart Thermostat, entire with constructed-in Siri, an built-in air good quality observe, and a spiffy new style and design.

A product or service listing for the Ecobee Clever Thermostat High quality popped up on the Canadian Tire retail website (by way of Zatz Not Humorous!) and on Lowe’s Canadian web-site, full with specifications and photographs of the unannounced system. The Canadian Tire web page appears to have blocked the products pictures, but they are still obvious on Lowe’s web site.

The revamped thermostat, which appears to be like to be the successor to the existing Ecobee Intelligent Thermostat with Voice Command, seems with a new metal bezel and (according to the leaked merchandise description) a “large, lively display” with a “cinematic interface.”

As with the latest Ecobee Good Thermostat, the HomeKit-enabled Top quality model supports your decision of designed-in Alexa or Siri, Apple’s voice assistant, according to the leaked facts. The present Ecobee thermostat got Siri guidance last yr, marking the 1st third-occasion machine to host Siri. That mentioned, the thermostat demands a household hub device, these as the Apple HomePod mini, for Siri to operate. 

Apart from Siri, the leaked solution website page for the Ecobee Smart Thermostat Premium details a created-in air high quality observe that “provides tips” and presents you reminders when your HVAC’s air filters need to have to be changed. The integrated air high-quality check would be a to start with for an Ecobee good thermostat.

The Ecobee Good Thermostat High quality was not the only Ecobee device that was leaked. A phase-down model, the unannounced Ecobee Wise Thermostat Increased, was also mentioned on Lowe’s Canadian web page. The Improved Thermostat that appears on the web-site has a far more common plastic bezel and lacks the Premium’s support for a crafted-in voice assistant.

Neither the Canadian Tire nor the Lowe’s item listings revealed pricing or availability dates.

We’ve achieved out to Ecobee for a lot more specifics about the leaked thermostats.
