Hi Rmorell, 

 

Oh no! I'm sorry to hear that your heat keeps turning on while termostat is on cool and raises temperature to one degree. Let's see what's going on. A few questions: 

 

  • Are you located in North America or Europe? 
  • What type of Nest Thermostat do you have?
  • Is the Nest thermostat newly installed?
  • Does the thermostat screen indicate that it’s actively calling for heating?
  • What type of furnace do you have? (gas, electric, etc.)
  • When did heating last work?
  • Did heating ever work with the Nest thermostat?
  • Did you turn off the power to the HVAC system?
    • Did you recently turn off any breakers?
    • Have you recently experienced a brownout or blackout?
    • Is there a light switch near the heater that controls an outlet?
  • Did you select the correct fuel type?
  • Do the LED lights blink on the HVAC control board? If yes, locate the light.
  • When was the last time you changed the furnace's air filter?
  • Have you experienced extremely cold weather lately?
  • Is this the first notable temperature drop of the year in the area?

 

I'll look forward to your response. 

 

Best,

Zoe
