Is my thermostat wiring compatible?

Yes, it is. It's compatible with Nest Learning Thermostat. You have B, G, Y, W then jumper wire for R/Rc. Do you have heat pump and a furnace?

I have a natural gas furnace so I am assuming I don't have a heat pump. Would you agree?

Alright, then. Do you know if your current thermostat has a common wire?

I don't think so. Please refer to pics of current thermostat wiring on this post.

Since my current thermostat doesn't have a C wire will I need to purchase a nest power connector or is there another workaround?

Your thermostat will work without the c wire.

Don't know if it works yet. It's a Christmas present. Will attempt to install soon after Christmas. Just wanted to know for sure if it will work with my existing thermostat wiring.
