More instructional videos need to be like this one. It was easy to follow. You speak calmly and clearly with a fatherly figure tone, and you didn't have a 6 minute intro telling us the story of how you got your thermostat. This is a prime example of a great " how to..." video. Thank you.

I bought the Nest Thermostat which ideally requires 5 wires but my old thermostat that was installed when the house was built in 2003 only has 4 wires and some of the wire colours are different than what the Nest Thermostat calls for, so this is how I connected it: My four wires coming out of the wall are Red, Green, Black and Blue. So, I connected the red wire to R, the green wire to G, the blue wire to Y and the black wire to W.

Don’t forget to let them know the major issues with Nest thermostats! Especially the one that pulses in your Y signal and makes contactor chatter which ultimately leads to equipment damage! I throw out a few nests per week. Supply houses and manufacturers have made us aware of the problems associated with nests. We actually have a higher diagnostic fee for nests. Not to mention the amazing technical support! You love em or hate em! Hvac mechanic for 27 years by the way. But great video!

Very useful video. I have a question. My thermostat has the usual Y, G, and W termini. In addition, it has an R and an Rc with a jumper between. When I entered these in Google Home, it returned as incompatible. However, you video showed that one can ignore the jumper and treat R and Rc as if there is only one R. Which is correct and why? Thank you!
@HowSkills
Жыл бұрын
The Nest has a built-in internal jumper that takes the place of the physical jumper in your original thermostat, which was the same situation as was mine. So only one R connection is needed.
