4 zone voltage capacity

I have a 4 zone system, I currently have 2 Nest thermostats installed. My question is, will my 24v 40VA transformer handle 4 thermostats? I’m not sure if 4 thermostats will be too much of a draw.

Thanks for any input.

Hey Bpjen,

 

Thank you for reaching out. 

Google Nest thermostats are compatible with the zone system. But some zone panels don't provide the Nest thermostat with enough power to stay charged and connected. With that, your additional Nest thermostat needs to have a Nest Power Connector or a common wire to provide stable power.

 

You can contact a Nest Pro in your area to see if the power connector or a common wire is needed and to estimate the cost of installing one in your home in order for your system to become compatible with a Nest thermostat.

 

Regards,

Ryan
