A:AnswerThere can be several reasons why this may be happening. A difference of a couple of degrees is acceptable as your benchmarking temperature on the Nest Thermostat. But greater differences do need attention. Below are some steps that may help you with the issue:
- Restart the thermostat. A restart should be sufficient to re-calibrate them and show an accurate value.
- Nest thermostats in the U.S. and Canada are typically installed on a wall. Check for proximity of the thermostat to: air vents / electrical outlets / appliances / plumbing (hot water pipes) / warm air in the wall behind the thermostat. This may also affect the reading for the temperature.
- Some wireless access points cause the Nest thermostat’s wifi chip to overheat, which affects the thermostat’s detected ambient temperature. We can disconnect the network for 24 hours and monitor the temperature.
If the issue persists, we'd like to take a look at it for further examination, so that we can offer a resolution. Please feel free to reach out our support team here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp
A:AnswerYou can have a schedule and heat or cool wherever you need, the schedule and temperature can be adjusted from Home App but device loses connectivity alot
A:AnswerYes, this is 5ghz compatible. That’s why I purchased this product. I have so many devices connected to my 2.4ghz I can’t get it to connect to any other only 2.4ghz devices.
A:AnswerNot sure how much it will save but we enjoy being able to set it from our cell phones. It does seem to be more efficient though. You can set up a schedule for every day of the week so at times when you are not home it will automatically set the temps to what you want them set at.
A:Answerthe google nest is the cheaper and less functional one. i started with the google nest and ended up taking it back for the better one due to functionality or lack there of with the lesser one, i had to keep resynching the google nest one where as the Nest just works period. set it up and bam it works. just spare yourself the trouble and get the better one to begin with.
A:AnswerUnfortunately, Nest Thermostat won’t work with that setup. You can only monitor your Nest Thermostat on the app once it is properly installed, which is connected to your HVAC system, connected to your Wi-Fi network, and successfully added on the app.
A:AnswerThe C wire supplies the 24V required to run/charge the thermostat. There is some documentation out there that states you can still hook it up to older systems without a C wire but you will have to buy and run a separate transformer wire to put on the C wire line to supply the voltage.
A:AnswerSince the thermostat includes a way to check the battery status (how much charge is left), I doubt they are rechargeable. Maybe you can keep checking the charge to see if it gets improved. Otherwise, I'd ask the Google Support team on their website.
A:AnswerNest Thermostat (2020) which is the latest model. It uses two high-quality 1.5 V AAA Alkaline batteries. Check all Nest thermostats technical specifications here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9230098
A:AnswerYes you can. If you set the devices up in Google Home, it asks where the device will be located. Therefore if you say to a Google device, "Change living room thermostats to 68 degrees," all thermostats in that area that you have set will change. Not sure if you can do this with Amazon Echo.
