The Ring app lets you control your security cameras, video doorbells, and more at a glance. If you use Ring as your main smart home control board, you might even want to integrate your smart thermostat into the app.

Here are all the thermostats you can link to the Ring app and what you can do once they’re connected. 

Does Ring Have Its Own Thermostat?

Ring makes a lot of smart home devices — but they haven’t branched out into smart thermostats yet. 

Even though there is no Ring-brand smart thermostat, there are plenty of compatible thermostats that integrate with the Ring system.

What Thermostats Work with Ring?

Some smart thermostats connect directly to the Ring app, while others work with your Ring system through IFTTT integrations.

Smart thermostats that can connect directly to the Ring app include:

How to Pair Amazon Smart Thermostat with Ring

Before you can connect an Amazon Smart Thermostat to the Ring app, you need to:

  • Set your thermostat up in the Alexa app
  • Connect your Amazon account to your Ring account

Once you’ve done those two things, follow the steps below to set your thermostat up in the Ring app:

  1. Open the Ring app and tap the menu icon in the top-left corner.
  2. Select “Set Up A Device.”
  3. Tap Thermostats > Transfer from Alexa App.
  4. Wait for the Ring app to find your thermostat, then select it and tap “Add Selected Device.”
  5. Tap “Continue.”

After connecting an Amazon Smart Thermostat to the Ring app, you can set heating and cooling schedules or change your temperature settings from the Ring app. 

How to Pair a Honeywell Home Thermostat with Ring

Before connecting a Honeywell thermostat to the Ring app, you must link your Ring account to your Amazon account and the Honeywell Home app

Once you’ve done that, follow these steps to connect your Honeywell thermostat to the Ring app: 

  1. Open the Ring app and tap the menu icon in the top-left corner.
  2. Select “Set Up A Device.”
  3. Choose Thermostats > T5, T6, T9, or T10 Smart Thermostat.
  4. Select “I have an account” and log into your Honeywell Home account.
  5. Tap “Continue” and follow the remaining on-screen steps.

After the thermostat is linked, you’ll see the current temperature at the top of your Ring dashboard. You can tap this to adjust your thermostat’s settings.

Is ecobee Compatible with Ring?

If you want to connect an ecobee Smart Thermostat to the Ring app, you must have a Ring Alarm Base Station already connected. 

The Base Station is the only Ring device that uses Z-Wave technology. This allows you to connect any thermostat with Z-Wave technology to the Ring app.

If you have a Ring Alarm, follow the steps below to link your ecobee Smart Thermostat to Ring:

  1. Open the Ring app.
  2. Tap the menu icon in the top-left corner.
  3. Press “Set Up A Device.”
  4. Tap Thermostats > Z-Wave Thermostats.
  5. Follow the on-screen steps to connect your ecobee thermostat.

What Can You Do with a Smart Thermostat and Ring?

You can see the temperature in your home and adjust your thermostat settings from the Ring app once your thermostat is linked. You can also control it through Alexa voice commands like you would any Ring device.

Through Alexa Routines, you can even trigger certain thermostat actions when your Ring device detects motion. 

Connect a Thermostat to Ring Through IFTTT

If you have a smart thermostat that’s not compatible with Ring, you can still create a certain level of automation through IFTTT.

IFTTT is a free, web-based automation system that connects devices that are traditionally incompatible.

For example, Google Home and Ring aren’t natively compatible. But, you can use IFTTT to create an automation that raises the temperature on your Google Nest Thermostat when your Ring device detects motion.
