Installation E260 Error Solved
||Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.I have a plain vanilla Honeywell thermostat and got E260 error upon first installation try. My mistake was to connect RC wire to C at Nest base plate. RC wire from Honeywell thermostat should be connected to R at Nest. Nest installation went well after the correction and luckily no fuse is blown at the furnace.

Highly recommend.
||Posted .Owned for 2 months when reviewed.Pretty cool device! I’m glad I got this model and not the most expensive one. This does the job. I can change my temperature from my phone even in the middle of the night without getting out of bed or from the car on the way home from work! It’s easy set up and easy use! I love the graphs it shows of how much energy I used and how much I saved. Very reliable!

Q: QuestionWhat are the differences between this new model and the Thermostat e?
Asked by smccoy64.
- A:Answer The Nest Thermostat (2020) comes with a 6 cm color LCD with 240x320 resolution, and mirrored glass finish. It provides more wiring terminals (10) that work with most 24V heating and cooling systems, including furnaces, air conditioners, boilers, and heat pumps with either forced air or radiant delivery. On the other hand, the Nest Thermostat E comes with polycarbonate, ceramic-feel finished ring with a frosted display that works with fewer (86%) 24V heating and cooling systems. While both Nest thermostat models work with most two-stage heating and two-stage cooling systems, we recommend checking the Compatibility Checker on our Google Nest support site to verify if your system is compatible. You can also take a look at the following support article for the complete technical specifications of the Nest thermostats: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9230098

Q: QuestionDo you need wifi to use the thermostat? Or can you use it no matter what
Asked by rose.
- A:Answer You can still use the Nest Thermostat to control your system even without Wi-Fi. However, you won't be able to utilize its other features such as remotely controlling the thermostat using the Home app. You can check this link to learn more about Nest Thermostat: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/10125150

Q: QuestionThe description says that the front is a mirrored finish but the pictures of the Snow and Sand show a white or corel cast to the glass respectively. Does the front actually look like a pure mirror or is it tinted to match the side color?
Asked by mjames.
- A:Answer It is a mirror finish. The photos don't do the product justice.

Q: QuestionDoes this work with Nest app. On iPhone. I have two older thermostats that use Nest app. And would want to add any newer ones.
Asked by Dadsteve.
- A:Answer No. You can only use the Google Home app for the new Nest Thermostat (2020). It's the first thermostat setup that is completed entirely on the Google Home app. Here's some helpful links you might want to check out: - Nest thermostat technical specifications: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9230098 - Control your devices using Google Home App: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9249866

Q: QuestionIs it compatible with the nest temperature sensors?
Asked by Hercules.
- A:Answer No, it is not remote sensor compatible. For that you need the Nest 3rd gen (standard $249 Nest) or Nest E.
Answered by DanC
Q: Questiondoes this nest work on a two zone system with natural gas heat and elec a/c system?
Asked by Bob.
- A:Answer Yes. Google Home will help you set it up. Best to have a 24 volt common wire. Aside from not using the battery, the Nest will sense your presence and show you info with touching it.
Answered by MisterT
Q: QuestionCan you basically just hook it up to 2 wire Williams wall heater ? Or would you still need a c wire ?
Asked by TRDPro.
- A:Answer Nest Thermostat works with most 2-wire, 24V heating and cooling systems, including furnaces, air conditioners, boilers, and heat pumps with either forced air or radiant delivery. We suggest using our online compatibility checker first to ensure that your system is compatible with Nest Thermostat. Here’s the link: https://store.google.com/us/widget/compatibility/thermostat Typically, smart thermostats don’t require a common (C) wire, but every system is different. Without a common wire, your Nest thermostat will charge itself through power sharing using your existing heating and cooling wires. However, when your heating and cooling wires are not able to deliver the needed power for your Nest thermostat, you may need to connect a common or C wire since it helps deliver enough consistent power to your thermostat. When there’s a C wire, it becomes the thermostat’s go-to for power backup when power sharing doesn’t work. This can also conserve battery life since the batteries will likely only be in use when there’s a power loss to the thermostat. Also, Nest Thermostat (2020) has a backup battery. For systems that are not using a C wire, the average battery life is three to six months. However, depending on the Wi-Fi activity on the thermostat, it may be possible to extend or reduce the battery life.
