How to Lock my Nest Thermostat, model 1.4

[Sean856]

Hello, I have a Nest, model 1.4, and do not see the Lock option on the Google Home or the the Nest apps, does this version support the lock feature? 

If not can I set temp. ranges so guests at my vacation rental cannot set the temp too low or high?

Hi Sean856,

Thanks for reaching out here in the community! I'm happy to help by checking to see if your Nest thermostat model can lock or establish a temperature range to prevent your vacation rental guests from adjusting the temperature too high or too low.

Based on the information, it appears you have the Nest Thermostat (2020), which has a mirror screen. Could you please confirm if this is correct?

If so, an alternative option is the Hold temperature feature. This feature allows you to maintain a specific temperature until you manually end the hold, either through the thermostat settings or the Google Home app. To learn more about this feature, you can refer to this article: Hold the temperature on your thermostat.

For now, the lock temperature feature is only available on the Nest Thermostat E and Nest Learning Thermostat. For more information, you can check out this article: Lock and unlock your Nest thermostat.

Let me know if you have more questions.

Best regards,

Jenniffer
