August creates one of the world’s most popular smart locks, and has this year opted to delve into the realm of voice control. August officially began supporting Alexa back in January, although it now also supports Google Home.

I’ve been waiting for Apple create its latest mini site since I first heard the word "HomeKit" way back in 2014. The site, lovingly nestled within the iOS section of Apple’s site features a fun film that shows off some of the cool stuff you can do with HomeKit-enabled accessories, Siri, and the iOS Home app. Personally, I think the gal in the video has way too many HomeKit scenes, but that’s neither here nor there.

But therein lies Lyric’s very attraction – it is simple to understand and to use. It is the brand’s rival to Tado, Nest and Hive, and is a quality rival to them all. Just because the Honeywell doesn’t try to learn your heating pattern doesn’t bother us – we’ve had other members of the team constantly try to correct Nest, for example, for whacking up the heating when it wasn’t necessary.

Her other top products are Flash with Febreze Bathroom Spray, CIF Stainless Steel Spray, Toilet Duck 4in1 Liquid Cleaner in the scent Fresh Pine, 1001 Carpet Spray and Zoflora.

In London and Birmingham, King’s College researchers reported wood accounted for up to 31% of locally produced particulates. And across Europe, wood burning is worsening pollution in capitals such as Paris, Berlin and Lisbon.

There are also settings to adjust the Wi-Fi connection, set any schedule options, change time settings and so on. You can also turn off the system or your home settings from the front screen. Where the Lyric system comes into its own, however, is with the use of an accompanying iOS or Android device, via a downloadable app.

The hub can be bought on its own for £108.33 (ex. VAT, or £130 inc. VAT), which is more expensive than the Wemo Bridge, but the Link Plus can be used to control up to 200 separate Lightwave devices, including dimmer switches, power sockets, thermostats and radiator valves, and security sensors. The company also sells kits that bundle the Link Plus with a number of other accessories.

“We completed the master bedroom first,” she recalled. “This became his sanctuary as we worked on other areas of the home.” Colorful art – pieces painted by his friend specifically for this room – brighten the Hale Navy walls.
