Hi Teleka,

Thanks for reaching out to us and welcome to the community! We're happy to see that you're considering Google Nest to be a part of your home. Let's check out your wiring system.

I see you have an R wire and a Y wire, which can likely support a Nest thermostat. Here's a guide on what your wires mean. However, we can't detail the specifications of what your HVAC system provides, so we suggest using a Nest Pro to safely install the unit if you're unsure which wires need to go where.

Hi backdraft0017,

Thanks for reaching out and we're sorry for the delay.

If you're still unable to connect your system your Nest Thermostat, we could try the following wiring configurations:

• green wire to G terminal
• yellow wire to Y terminal
• white wire to W terminal
• red wire to Rc or Rh terminal on the Nest Thermostat

Let us know how it goes by replying to this thread.
