QuestionI have 8 zones in my home, what would I need to make all of this work using the nest technology?
Asked 7 years ago by Jonmc.
- Answer You would need to purchase one 3rd Generation Nest for each A/C unit you are controlling. Nest recently introduced the Nest Temperature Sensor which works in conjunction with the control unit, where you would place one of these sensors in the zone you want to set for optimal temperature. The logic is that typically the thermostat is not always placed in the room you want the most control. I have a home with three a/c units and added a Temperature Sensor to one bedroom since the thermostat was in the hallway. Works perfectly. Good luck.
  I would recommend:

QuestionI have a Hot water Heating system for heat. I have a AC unit for cooling. I have one thermostat that controls both. Does the nest have the ability to do that?
Asked 7 years ago by LeoGDubreuil.

QuestionIs there an off switch? Or is it allways on? What if I’m at home and I’m already comfortable with the temperature, can I just turn it off?
Asked 7 years ago by R77777.
- Answer It’s a “learning” thermostat so if comfortable simply adjust manually by turning dial or via app and it will turn off the heating/cooling function until schedule changes or you change it.

Asked 7 years ago by Rachel.

QuestionIs this worth buying if I seldom use my a/c or heating? My home usually stays a comfortable temperature.
Asked 7 years ago by R7177.
- Answer Probably not. The real value in this comes from the automatic programming and ability to control your thermostat remotely. If your home is normally a comfortable temperature anyways, I'm not sure that it'd be that easy to justify the 250$ price tag.

QuestionMy house has multiple thermostats. If I install Nest system I assume that each current thermostat must be replaced with a Nest device. Correct?
Asked 8 years ago by Zack.

QuestionI know base comes in different colors (silver, white, copper, etc.). However, what background colors does it come in? Do these colors change, depending upon what the unit is doing? Or are they set or changeable?
Asked 8 years ago by CountryConnie.
- Answer No, at least from what I've been able to determine. The base is the base, and the display is white on black, though it changes color when it's heating (and, I presume, cooling).

QuestionIf a "C" wire is required, why do they NOT show it in the installation video I just watched on their website?
Asked 8 years ago by Partee2017.
This question was asked about the related product: Google - Nest Learning Smart Wifi Thermostat - White
- Answer A C-Wire is not required in the Nest thermostat (as it is required in the Lyric Thermostat) because Nest has managed to have the unit pull power from one of the other wires ... in other words, Nest has found a way to get just enough power from the existing setup without a C-Wire. Although having a C-Wire makes it very easy to install and operate. The Lyric, on the other hand, requires a separate C-Wire connection, or you must use highgrade, and expensive, lithium AAA batteries, which can be costly and have to be replaced at varying rates depending on your heating/cooling system. I had the Lyric and had to replace the battery every 3 weeks. It was annoying and expensive. The Nest, though, has worked with no problems now for three months straight using the existing wiring on my home system and without a C-Wire

QuestionSince 2 zone with 2 thermostat require 2 nest units, will nest have a 2 pack deal? Spending $500 on thermostat seems excessive and PGE only offers rebate on one unit.
Asked 8 years ago by Megabuck2.
- Answer They have sales from time to time and and many utilities have rebates for smart thermostats. I am unaware of any two pack sales. I had to buy two for my dual zone system. The money I saved on heating and cooling bills is worth it. Unless you know of a sale coming up, I wouldn't wait.

QuestionIs this unit always illuminated ? question No. 2 If I take a volt meter to the two wire from the wall and get a reading, 12 or 24 volts, can I use this unit?
Asked 8 years ago by daisy.
- Answer No, the unit is not always illuminated. It lights up when you walk near and displays the current temp and also when you change the settings. That is all. As for voltage, I don't know. Set up is EASY though. Depending on your wiring situation, you refer to a chart on a setup up page on line, select the wires your AC has (which are inserted in labeled slots in your existing unit), and then displays the where they are to be inserted in the unit. If you don't have a C wire, you may need a certified installer to wire it.
