How to install the Google Nest Learning Thermostat

Рет қаралды 7,124,026

Күн бұрын

The Nest Learning Thermostat (3rd gen) is simple to set up and install. We'll walk you through the entire process of installing your thermostat in the right spot and you'll find detailed instructions in the Nest app.
If you haven't already checked that your system will work with the Nest thermostat, use Nest's Compatibility Checker: nest.com/works
If you want a wiring diagram, go to: nest.com/support/#works/?mode...
You'll learn how to install the 3rd gen Nest Learning Thermostat yourself, including how to:
- Remove your old thermostat
- Take a photo of your old setup and label the wires
- Install the Nest base
- Connect the wires to the Nest thermostat
- Attach the Nest thermostat display
- Connect the Nest thermostat to the Nest app. If you're having trouble connecting to the app, go to nest.com/pair/ for more details.
We'll also give you a preview of how to setup your thermostat: you'll pick a language, connect it to Wi-Fi, tell it a few basics about your home, and tell it about your heating and cooling system so it can help you save energy.
After setup, get the basics on how to use your thermostat, how it learns, and how to save energy at nest.com/thermostatbasics
If you prefer not to DIY install, find a Nest Pro: nest.com/profinder

Pro tip: cut out a inch x inch square and take it to a paint shop. They use a computer to match the color. Be sure the sample location is a good representation of the color since sun/grease/dust might make it look different than you want. Get a sample size of paint which often is free and then test it out. Mine matched perfectly

If you just have a Red wire, hook it to either Rh or Rc, doesn't mater... Unlike most thermostats, the Nest Learning Thermostat does not require a jumper wire between Rh and Rc. Nest knows that if you've got heating and cooling, and just one R wire, the power source is shared between them. ... Nest Thermostat connectors are built so that only one wire can be inserted per connector.

Can you add those threshold settings like in Ecobee? In cold areas, furnaces might short cycle every 15mins like four times per hour and waste energy. If we can set the heat to run a minimal 30 mins and the start to run threshold to be 2F, it would actually save more energy.

My existing Honeywell thermostat is connected to the Central Heating pump only and controls that. When the temperature in our hall, where it's situated, drops then the thermostat detects that and turns on the pump and that fires up the boiler and hence the radiators get hot again. Simples! Why complicate matters so with a swanky device and anyway what it 'Fan' ? I don't have that.

We need this to heat the water, so is it not a waste of money just to use this as a thermostat when it does both? This makes this not so easy to do as it is complicated to put the Heat Link in as we need to take off the programmer.

I just want to throw this in here for a heads up. When I installed mine, the "W" cord (the white one) was in the "W" slot on my old thermostat. When I inserted it into the "W" slot into the NEST, only the heat came on. If you're having this problem, take the "W" cord and insert it into the "O/B" slot. The video doesn't tell you this, so it might not apply to everyone, but that's what got mine working. Other than that, set up really is a breeze.

I bought one of these, and the first month it was in place my bill soared from 450 dollars to more than 1250 dollars. I called, and they said, "that happens sometimes." They told me how to turn off the "smart" features of the thermostat, and I paid my insane electric bill. I later found out my kids were coming home from school and cranking the ac down in the heat of summer when nobody was home, so that's what it started doing. Can't blame the company for that, but oh my goodness was that a sad discovery. It doesn't seem to shut off reliably when the temperature is reached (it gets way chilly) as well. Can't say I recommend this product because now it's just a pretty thermostat. There needs to be a warning on the box.

Unlike most thermostats, the Nest Learning Thermostat does not require a jumper wire between Rh and Rc. Nest knows that if you've got heating and cooling, and just one R wire, the power source is shared between them. ... Nest Thermostat connectors are built so that only one wire can be inserted per connector.

I did this and it short cycles my AC. I switched to a $20 Honeywell which solved the problem. Any idea why it would have a phantom signal turning the condenser on and off every few seconds?

The website isn't providing me with the custom wire diagram as described in this video. Does anyone have a link or different directions?

None of the instructions I've seen so far have mentioned if you can use the Nest with an old, low voltage 2-wire system. The thermostat I am trying to replace is an old mercury switch unit with 2 wires only. Will this work?

Buy a plug in transformer just to give you the 24 volts. They sell them for 16 bucks on amazon. It will work.

when i hooked all the wires up to the base all i got was hot air. i had yellow in Y, green in G, orange in W1, white in W1, brown in C and red in Rh. when i moved the orange from W1 to OB and the red wire from Rh to Rc, i was able to get cold air when the AC was supposed to be on.

How can i get my learning thermostat to work with my units? The guy installing it said the heater and ac unit need separate connections. Thanks

I noticed that on my original thermostat, there are TWO wires connecting to RH. Is that correct? What do I do when I switch to the Nest?

@googlenest 5 жыл бұрын

Thanks for reaching out. The Nest thermostat is designed for a single wire in each terminal. We recommend reaching out to a Nest Pro for the installation of your Nest thermostat, as they may need to do some wiring changes.

You didn't show how to mount the wall plate and then the wiring unit after that. If you use the screws provided, when you go to mount the wire assembly, it is not flush with the wall plate.
