I believe my newer Rheem thermostat should be compatible with Nest but when going through the set up questionnaire it says it’s not. Would it be possible to have someone check the photo of my wiring before I return the device?
Hi TFrancis,
Thanks for posting here in the Community forum and for showing interest in our Nest Thermostats. Fortunately, your thermostat wires are compatible with our Nest Learning Thermostat 3rd generation and should be wired to the Nest Learning Thermostat base as shown:
Take note that a jumper wire is not needed for a Nest Thermostat, so you can disregard it. Also, here's a guide for the installation and setup of a Nest Learning Thermostat.
Let us know if you have any other questions.
Best,
Zoe
