Thanks!

@zekromxyz , your current thermostat appears to be controlling only a heating system.  I would recommend you use a Nest Thermostat and not a Nest Learning Thermostat. You have extra conductors so it is possible to add a common wire.

Hi zekromxyz,

 

Thanks for getting back to us. Put the red wire to the W (heat) terminal and the black wire to the R (power) terminal on the Nest Thermostat. Hit this link for more information about installing a Nest Thermostat. Let us know your update here. 

 

Regards,

Emerson
