How to Set Up an ecobee Room Sensor

In order to continue, you must already have your Ecobee Smart Thermostat installed and setup.

1. A Room Sensor may have come packaged with your ecobee Smart Thermostat.
   
2. Alternatively, you may have purchased a two-sensor pack.
   
3. Remove your sensor from its packaging.
   
4. Depending on the desired placement location of your sensor, you may opt to use the stand it comes packaged with. You must replace the sensor's existing back plate with the provided stand.
   
5. You can also use the supplied adhesive strip to mount your sensor on the wall.
   

   Waiting to mount your sensor until after it is paired may be best to avoid walking between your sensor & thermostat during the pairing process.

   

Wireless remote sensors should be placed in the rooms of your home where you spend the most time; rooms where comfort is the most important to you. For example, if you have a small child, or a home-office that gets particularly hot or cold, place your wireless remote sensors in those rooms to prioritize comfort there.

This will make sure your ecobee smart thermostat is well-aware of the temperatures within those rooms and can make adjustments accordingly.
