What Resideo Technologies does

Resideo Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: REZI) is a publicly traded provider of residential comfort, security, water management, and air quality solutions, spun out of Honeywell in October 2018. The company operates two reportable segments: Products & Solutions, which manufactures and markets smart thermostats (T-Series, ElitePRO, X8S), indoor air quality products (dehumidifiers, humidifiers), security systems (ProSeries, VISTA H3, VX Series video), life safety devices (First Alert smoke/CO alarms, BRK), water leak detection and shutoff products, and home automation acquired via Snap One (Control4, Episode); and ADI Global Distribution, the #1 global wholesale distributor of security, life safety, and AV products operating 200+ locations across 20 countries and exporting to 100+ countries. Underlying technology centers on a connected home IoT platform integrating the proprietary RedLINK wireless protocol, the Total Connect 2.0 mobile app, Pro-IQ contractor subscription services, and interoperability with Alexa, Google Home, Apple HomeKit, Ring, and Matter. The Global Climate Solutions division supplies 6,500+ combustion control components to HVAC OEMs for integration into water heaters, boilers, furnaces, and heat pumps. Resideo products are present in 150 million homes across more than 100 countries, with 12.8 million connected customers and 15 million+ systems installed annually.

Resideo monetizes through four revenue streams: hardware sales of Honeywell Home- and First Alert-branded products via wholesale distribution to professional installers and retail channels; wholesale distribution margins through ADI Global Distribution; recurring subscription revenue through Pro-IQ contractor services, training, and loyalty programs (Resideo Pro Perks, Resideo Academy); and OEM component sales to HVAC manufacturers. Go-to-market is hybrid: a professional installer network (HVAC contractors, security dealers, plumbers, builders) drives the bulk of installed-base revenue, ADI serves security dealers and AV integrators through field sales, OEM goes direct to manufacturers, and select products reach consumers through retail and e-commerce including a Find a Pro/Find a Retailer locator. Pricing is quote-based through certified contractors for installed systems and retail-priced for direct-to-consumer products. Resideo holds approximately 3,000 active and pending patents and licenses the Honeywell Home brand under a long-standing agreement that was partially monetized when Resideo paid $1.625 billion to terminate Honeywell's indemnification obligation in August 2025. The company announced the planned spin-off of ADI Global Distribution as an independent public company (ticker ADIG), targeted for mid-Q3 to mid-Q4 2026, which will leave Resideo as a pure-play Products & Solutions manufacturer.
