The `honeywell` climate platform let you control [Honeywell Connected](http://getconnected.honeywell.com/en/) thermostats from Home Assistant.
To set it up, add the following information to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
climate:
platform: honeywell
username: YOUR_USERNAME
password: YOUR_PASSWORD
scan_interval: 600
```
<p class='note'>
Scan interval is expressed in seconds. Omitting scan_interval may result in too-frequent polling and cause you to rate-limited by Honeywell.
