This is in addition to allowing homeowners to remotely manage their security systems for anytime, anywhere control.

Tuxedo Touch is one of Honeywell’s premier, cost-effective “connected home” products that offer life safety and lifestyle benefits. The Honeywell Total Connect remote service enhancements are the latest step in bringing together the capabilities of the company’s home automation systems to create powerful, integrated security and lifestyle solutions.

They can also receive email or video alerts about important events such as when or whether a child has arrived home from school, if floods, leaks or extreme temperature changes have been detected or if motion has been sensed in a protected indoor or outdoor area.

“The enhancements we’ve made to Tuxedo Touch represent a perfect example of how Honeywell focuses on a better user experience when designing products,” said Alan Stoddard, senior marketing director, Honeywell Security Products Americas. “Security professionals must cater to evolving consumer expectations, and today, the expectation is convenience. Tuxedo Touch paired with Honeywell Total Connect provides homeowners anywhere, anytime visibility and control of their connected home.”
