The Smart Away feature depends on the iComfort
Thermostat App running on your mobile device
(smart phone or tablet) and being logged in to your
account. It is also required for Wi-Fi and location
settings to be enabled on your mobile device. An-
droid devices must also have the location mode set
to “high accuracy.” Consult your mobile device user
guide for instructions.
Smart Away can also be enabled from your mobile
device once you have installed the Lennox iCom-
fort Thermostat App and logged in. Go to the menu
> settings > away and turn ON Smart Away. To
allow the mobile device you are on to use this fea-
ture, turn ON participate. The away fence option will
appear and by default, the setting is two miles (3
km). The range for this setting is 2 to 6 miles (3.00
to 9.50 km).
Inner and Outer Away Fences
The inner away fence is set by the user anywhere
between 2 to 6 miles (3.00 to 9.50 km) on the
mobile app. This setting can be dierent for each
participating mobile device. When any of the partic-
ipating mobile devices are located inside of its inner
away fence, the system will not be in Smart Away;
the system will use the temperature set points de-
ned by the schedule or what was manually set.
Once the inner away fence is set, the outer fence for
each participating mobile device will be automati-
cally calculated by the Smart Away algorithm.
Transition Set Points
When the closest participating mobile device is
between the inner and outer away fences, the ther-
mostat will show the Smart Away indicator. The
system will use transition set points to heat or cool
the home. The transition temperature set points are
automatically calculated by the Smart Away algo-
rithm using a combination of the home and away
set points.
Away Set Points
Once all participating mobile devices have moved
outside the transition range, the thermostat will
continue to show the Smart Away indicator, and the
user-set away set points will be used to control the
system.
Example: Away set points are 65ºF (18.5ºC) for
heating and 85ºF (29.5ºC) for cooling. When the
away fence is set to two miles for all participating
mobile devices, and the closest participating mobile
device is within the 0-2 mile (0 to 3.22 km) range
of the home, the system is considered home; the
system will use the set points from the schedule or
what was manually set. If the closest participating
mobile device moves into the 2.1 to 8 miles (3.40 to
13.04 km) range, the system is considered in tran-
