Emergency heat not engaging

When the temperature outside falls below freezing my thermostat isn’t engaging emergency heat. Is there a setting that I may not have correct?

 Hi Bowman3120,

 

Thank you for posting in the community. I understand that your thermostat isn’t engaging emergency heat. I'm happy to help you!

To help me find the best solution, I'll need to ask you a few questions:

  • Did work before?
  • Have you recently experienced a brownout or blackout?
  • Is the Nest thermostat newly installed?
    • If so, Did you install the thermostat yourself or was it done by a technician?
  • When did the inconvenience start? 
  • To help us get a better picture of what's happening, do you mind sharing a photo of the wiring of your Nest thermostat?

Keep me posted.

 

Best regards,

Rusell
