additional third-party control. It features

HONEYWELL was receiving consider-
able attention for its Lyric, Wi-Fi Water
Leak and Freeze Detector. This device
helps protect against major water damage
by alerting the homeowner that a prob-
lem is developing before (hopefully) it
becomes a costly problem. The company
notes that the average cost of a major
leak is $7,000 in damage. The unit is bat-
tery operated so there's no wiring, which
makes it easy to install at any location
where it might be needed. The claimed
battery life is up to three years. While the
unit comes with one water sensing cable,
additional cables can be added to extend
coverage up to 500 feet.

Combustion and CO Analyzers featur-
ing B-Smart Sensors. What's interesting
about this approach is that instead of
having to send the entire unit back for
a sensor recalibration, a new, fully cali-
brated sensor can be ordered as required
for replacement in the field. Similarly,
there is an exchange program where a
new calibrated sensor is shipped out at
preset intervals for easy replacement in
the field. The company notes that this
allows for considerable savings in the life-
time cost of the unit. Also of note was the
Bacharach Reporting App. It transfers
combustion test data from all Fyrite®
INSIGHT® Plus and Fyrite® InTech®
combustion analyzers to a smartphone
or tablet, allowing for customized
reports that can be saved as a PDF file
and emailed.
