A:AnswerYou won't get an alert if someone changes the setting manually while you're away. However, you can control with your iPhone when away from home. You can also set it automatically to Eco mode when you leave home, based on the location of your iPhone.
A:AnswerYes, you can even have it set to schedule the fan to run for a certain duration to cycle the air throughout your home. I think that’s better than have the fan constantly on, reduces electric bill. You can also have it set for the fan to kick on if the humidity inside your house gets too high.

A:AnswerDawn,
Sounds like something isn't wired right. I would reach out to Nest and they can assist you. Their support in troubleshooting a software issue with my original thermostat took a bit but they knew what they were doing.
A:AnswerIt depends mate. Do you have two zone? if the answer is you only have one zone than no. But if you have two zone than you will need two nest to control each zone.
A:AnswerIf the thermostat is set at 73 and I am warm, I can turn the thermostat to 72 and it kicks on. So I would say 1 degree difference. I have never stood there and watched it but I would assume, based on my experience, that if you have it set to 72 then the AC is going to kick on at 73. It will run the compressor till it reaches 72 then turn the compressor off and it will run the fan for several more mins blowing all the cool air out of the system. Which keeps it cooler and saves money.
A:Answerwe have found that the number of rush hour days are limited by our utility company and they seem to be relatively rare, i.e., averages a day every couple of weeks or so
