When the temperature falls down, the heater turns on. However, the heater turns off after a minute or so, and then almost immediately turns on again. The heater does it 2-3 times before it stays on to reach the desired temperature. What could be the issue here?

I have this same issue, with both of my Nests, on 2 separate heating units. These are new Nest thermostats, and it doesn't happen all the time.

Me, too. It doesn’t always do that so its really difficult to analyze whats wrong and I’m hesitant to call HVAC technician since it happens maybe 1 out of 4 times… Did you resolve it by any chance?

No... still an issue and I had an HVAC guy out and he couldn't figure it out either, everything is wired properly and the heater is functioning properly too. I have two furnaces, and 2 new Nests. Both Nests do this, with both furnaces. This did not occur with the prior thermostats. Frustrating as I've wasted about $550 on worthless thermostats from Nest.

Could be driven by the Aquastat that controls off/on if it's a hyrdo coil

Having the exact same issue ... system has a C wire. Had HVAC person out and he said to trash the Nest. He connected a Honeywell and showed it started up on first try. Is there a way to fix this or should I really trash the Nest?

I had HVAC repair out last fall…he ‘fixed’ it but said he didn’t like Nest: I do like best! Still getting warning from Nest. I wonder if it is doing this when the temp is ‘close’ to setting and doesn’t require much heater intervention, so it keeps bumping the heat. I don’t want to pay for another trip from HVAC for the same issue!
