Wi-Fi smart thermostat
If you are looking for a trusted Ecobee 3 Lite thermostat supplier in Dubai, you are in the right place. We stock genuine units, check compatibility with you before you pay, and can fit the thermostat for you.
The Ecobee 3 Lite is the second-generation entry model in the ecobee range. It replaces a basic wall thermostat with a connected one. You set temperatures on the 3.5-inch touchscreen, in the ecobee app on Android or iOS, or by voice. It also works quietly in the background, adjusting itself around your routine so the system is not cooling an empty home.
It is the simpler, lower-priced choice in the family. You get the core smart features without paying for extras you may not need, and you can add ecobee room sensors later if one room never feels right.
The thermostat notices when the house is empty and eases back on cooling or heating. When you return it brings the temperature back to your comfort setting. It is the feature that pays for itself, because it cuts the hours the system runs for nobody.
Change the temperature from the sofa or from the car. The ecobee app also handles schedules, alerts and reports, and it works with Apple Watch.
Say "Alexa, set the temperature to 24 degrees" and it happens. Google Assistant, Apple HomeKit, Samsung SmartThings and IFTTT are supported too.
Room sensors are sold separately. They let the thermostat read the room you actually sit in, not just the hallway wall.
Home IQ and free monthly reports show how long your system ran and how your usage compares over time.
Get notified about HVAC problems, connectivity issues and sudden temperature drops, so small faults do not turn into big bills.
Wi-Fi with WPA, WPA2 and WPA3 support, and 168-bit SSL encryption for cloud communication.
Ecobee states that its thermostats can save up to 23% a year on heating and cooling. That figure comes from the manufacturer, and your own result depends on your home, your insulation and how you use the system.
The savings come from simple habits that a smart thermostat automates. It does not cool an empty house, it follows a schedule that matches your week, and it shows you the numbers so you can adjust. In a Dubai summer, when the air conditioning runs for long hours, cutting even a few hours a day of unnecessary cooling adds up.

Wi-Fi tip: some users on dual-band routers see unstable connections. Joining the thermostat to the 2.4 GHz network usually fixes it.
This is the question that matters most before you buy. The Ecobee 3 Lite works with 24 VAC low-voltage systems. That covers ducted systems, fan coil units, furnaces, boilers and heat pumps that already use a wall thermostat with wires.
Most split AC units are different. They are usually controlled by an infrared remote and have no thermostat wiring, so this thermostat will not control them. If you are unsure, send us a photo of your current thermostat, with the cover removed if you can, and we will tell you honestly whether it will work.
Check one more thing: the C-wire. If your thermostat wiring has no common wire, you will need the Power Extender Kit, or an adapter such as DropAir, to power the unit.
Many people fit a thermostat themselves, and the app guides you through setup. If you would rather not touch the wiring, our team installs Ecobee thermostats in homes, offices and commercial sites across Dubai. See our thermostat installation service for details.
For most homes with a compatible system, yes. It is a sensible way to get a smart thermostat without the cost of the newer models. It will not suit everyone, so here is the honest picture.
If you want a built-in sensor and the newest features, compare it with the Ecobee Premium 6th Gen or the Smart Thermostat 6th Gen.

Usually not. The Ecobee 3 Lite controls 24 VAC systems such as ducted units, fan coil units, furnaces and heat pumps. Most split AC units are controlled by their own infrared remote and are not compatible. Send us a photo of your existing thermostat wiring and we will confirm before you buy.
The thermostat is powered by 24 VAC and expects a common (C) wire. If your system has no C-wire, a Power Extender Kit can supply power. Depending on region and retailer, the kit may be included or sold separately.
