    At least they could provide basic functionality without navigating through miserable user interface.. turn on fan to recirc? why would they make that easy. Aside from that I set it up the way it wanted me to. It was 60 degrees outside, doors were open to air out the house and the darn A/C started ...real energy saving right there! Took it back next day and bought the Honeywell

    Not easy to operate. Keeps disconnecting from the internet so then it has to reset and you have to recheck your schedule.

    I know that this thermostat is highly rated however I couldn't get it to work with my system. We think that there is a problem with my wiring configuration so I had to return it for now and will have my system checked out by an A/C specialist. Therefore I cannot rate it at this time but it is making me do a rating before I leave this screen so that said I can't give a high rating. They should have a no rating option.

    This thermostat keeps shutting my furnace off then on then off then on then off then on, etc. Nest support is obviously just reading from a script. I reinstalled the old smart thermostat this was supposed to replace and everything worked fine. I do not recommend this product at all.

    Common Wire Installation

    I purchased this for my new condo and it worked well for a year. After that, the system kept disconnecting. I had to reach out to the Nest team and they told me I'd have to have a common wire installed in order for it to operate correctly. They connected me with a technician and it was installed the next day. The product works like new again.

      Hi JoeW. It sounds like you're frustrated with a malfunctioning appliance that's only blowing cold air, and Google customer service hasn't been helpful despite your attempts to reach them. Here are some steps you can take:

      1.Identify the appliance: Is it a heater, air conditioner, refrigerator, or something else? Knowing the specific appliance will help narrow down potential causes.

      2.Check the basics: Refer to the appliance's user manual for troubleshooting tips. Common issues include:

      3.Thermostat setting: Make sure it's set to heat (for heaters) or a higher temperature (for air conditioners).
      Dirty filters: A clogged air filter can restrict airflow and hinder heating/cooling efficiency. Clean or replace the filter as recommended.
      4.Blocked vents: Ensure vents aren't blocked by furniture or debris.
      Search online resources: Search for troubleshooting guides specific to your appliance model. Websites like [manufacturer name] support pages or forums might offer solutions.

      5.Consider alternative contact methods: If calling hasn't worked, try reaching out to Google customer service through their online chat option (if available) or social media platforms like Twitter.

      6.Seek professional help: If troubleshooting fails, consider contacting a qualified repair technician for your appliance. https://store.google.com/us/magazine/installation?hl=en-US

      Here's an additional tip: When contacting customer service again, politely explain the situation and the number of times you've tried reaching them. Request to speak to a supervisor if your issue isn't resolved promptly. Nest
