I have an office with multiple Nest thermostats. I need to install a Nest Temperature Sensor for each thermostat. All the thermostats are on the same Nest account. Is this possible?

Hey David,

I wanted to jump in and see if I could be of some help. Each compatible thermostat can have up to 6 temp sensors each, for a total of 18. If you have multiple thermostats, you can link a temp sensor to those, no problem. You can follow the link here to learn more. Please let me know if that helps, or if you still have any questions from here.

Can you connect the same temperature sensor to two different thermostats? I will have one thermostat for my heating system and one for my cooling system...

Hello timhreha,

Thanks for your interest about Nest Temperature Sensor.

Each Nest Thermostats can support up to 6 sensors, however your thermostat can only use one at a time. You can pick which area in your home is the most essential by using Nest Temperature Sensors so your Nest Thermostat uses different sensors at different times. To know more how it works, here's the link.

If there’s anything else I can help you with, please let me know.

Best,

Mark

Thanks, Mark, but my question is different...

It is not "can my Nest use multiple sensors?" (answer, yes, up to 6, but only control to one at a time)

It is "can my Nest Temperature Sensor be paired with multiple thermostats?" so that during heating season, I can control to any sensor (up to 6) with my heating Nest thermostat AND during cooling season, I can control to any of the same sensors (up to 6) with my different cooling Nest thermostat.

Hi there,

Thanks for clarification and apologies for the confusion.

You can add multiple Nest Temperature Sensors with Nest Learning Thermostats, but Nest Temperature Sensor can only connect to one Nest Learning Thermostat. Here's another link related to Nest Temperature Sensor.

Let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.

Thanks,

Mark
