Thermostats that work with Ring

I have a wifi thermostat that worked on a previous system. Is it possible to intergrate this to the Ring? If not, is there any that work with Ring?

    Hey @invman! At this time, we do not have a Ring branded or third party thermostat that works with our Ring App and system, but please keep yourself updated in our [announcements page](https://shop.ring.com/pages/announcements) if we do. I will pass up your idea to our team so we can see if we can get this in the works for you!

      If it works wiith Z wave technology, wouldn't it work with ring? Is it that your app does not support it? Thank you for the response. jim

      Hey @invman! Z-Wave is the communication protocol that the Ring Alarm devices use to speak to one another, so we have to make sure it can integrate with our App and the system first. You can learn more about [Z-Wave here.](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001263166-Understanding-Z-Wave-and-Mesh-Networks) There are various Z-Wave devices that can be added to the Ring app through the Ring Alarm system, and we label them as [Works With Ring devices](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360026250452-Works-With-Ring-Compatible-Devices). At this time, the thermostat is not apart of our list, but we are working diligently to bring more products to be available for our neighbors!

      I didn't do enough research on ring prior to purchase, but it appears that adding new features is a slow process (battery light on base unit - why wouldn't you have a way to dim or disable it - pretty irritating) and now I find out that a z-wave system doesn't integrate with z-wave thermostats - shouldn't that be a basic function???? Please get it done quickly - before you fall behind everyone else....

      I too complained about the same thing. I have three thermostats that operate on Z Wave and don't want to buy nest or other.

      Think the ring team will respond? Here’s the challenge “Ring Team” ... get an affordable z-wave thermostat working with your z-wave hub by the end of January 2020.... I think you can do it if you try....let us know if you’re going to do it...

    Ring is behind Nest with thermostats, face recognition, etc. I am still with Ring since it is cheap in monthly fee.

      You are at least two years behind the curve as other security system have integrated thermostats or have created their own product. The smart Thermostat was litterally one of the first smart home devices to come to market and you still dont have an integratation with your security system?!?!?! You have an Alexa integration for thermostats but not the security system?!?!? I'd love for Ring/Amazon to explain why this hasnt occured so that we can all understand why this hasnt happened? I dont want an message about taking the feedback to our team BS. I want an honest answer to a question that most Ring security users have.

        Neighbors have reported success with using Honeywell Z-wave thermostats and Ring Alarm. Otherwise, We currently do not have any thermostats listed as [Works With Ring](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360026250452), but integration options such as Alexa might help you to obtain this. Feel free to let the Community know of any success you’ve had with integrations, and remember to add to this request on our [Feature Request Board](https://community.ring.com/c/products/feature-request-board/24). As always, keep an eye on the Community, the Ring app, and at Ring.com for any updates on new features or devices. :slight_smile:

          Any update on this? I am anxiously waiting to see a product that can integrate Ring with muti-zone smart thermostat on my house. Once I set the ring alarm to away, the temperature would drop to a preset value. Come on, I know you can do it! Cheers

            Hello all, I managed to pair my z-wave Vivint Element thermostat to my Ring Base Station and control it thru the Ring app. The problem is that it drains the Thermostat's battery at an extremely fast pace. I used to replace the batteries once a year and now I replace them every 30 days or so. Can anyone tell me why is the battery dying so fast? I don't have a C-wire so my thermostat is powered by 4 AA batteries. I wish Ring will come up with their own Thermostat. I will get three, one for each of the zones in my house.

            Hello, I transitioned from Vivint to ring. How did you put the thermostat in pairing mode? Do I have to remove it first from the Vivint panel?
