Just a theory. Wiring issue if this happened after stat installed. What color on each terminal and what brand of heat pump?</P> Sun, 09 Jan 2022 07:13:58 GMT Mace67 2022-01-09T07:13:58Z https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Nest-Thermostats/Heat-cycles-on-for-a-minute-to-two-before-the-AC-starts/m-p/78961#M17619 <P>Just installed a Nest programable thermostat in our Florida home. Air conditioner blows heat for two minutes when thermostat calls for cooling. We have a heat pump system. Anyone have an idea as to why?</P> Sat, 08 Jan 2022 13:17:22 GMT https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Nest-Thermostats/Heat-cycles-on-for-a-minute-to-two-before-the-AC-starts/m-p/78961#M17619 PamP 2022-01-08T13:17:22Z https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Nest-Thermostats/Heat-cycles-on-for-a-minute-to-two-before-the-AC-starts/m-p/79524#M17764 <P>Sounds like your heat strips are running with the air conditioner.&nbsp; There may be a 5 minute delay on compressor and you are feeling heat.during that time.
