Thanks in advance.

Hi designwebs,

 

Thanks for reaching out. I understand that you need to know if you Need a Nest power connector. I am here to help you! 

However, based on the wire connection you sent, it appears that you already have the C wire (common wire). If you have the C wire, you don't need the Nest power connector.

 

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Thank you for the reply after asking all these questions I forgot to ask one more.  Sometimes in the winter I have to turn on emergency heat.  This function activate heating coils inside my furnace.  I usually have to do this when the temps drop into the teens.  Will the next thermostat do this function?

"Hi designwebs,

 

Thanks for your question. The emergency heat function is available on all Google Nest Thermostat models. You can activate it using the app or directly on your Google Nest Thermostat.

Please refer to this link for instructions on how to turn emergency heat on or off.

 

Let me know if you have any other questions.
