I have a nest Gen 3 nest thermostat hooked up to an oil fired boiler which heats the radiators in our house and also hot water cylinder.
I can schedule both heating and hot water tank separately and they work just fine. However with oil prices through the roof it makes allot of sense to have the hot water schedule tied to the heating schedule - I only need the hot water to turn on for around 2 hours a day and my heating is on for around 4 hours a day. The boiler only has one burner so to run the two systems in sync would not use much or any extra oil.
It would be a really nice feature for Nest to add tie hot water schedule to heating, where the hot water only comes on with the heating - and then give an option to boost or schedule the hot water in the summer when the heating is used less/if atall.
Where can I submit this as a feature request? Right now I have this enabled through a bypass switch, but all the function is in next just not enabled in the software. I'd expect this would save approx 2 hours of oil/boiler use per day or more in the winter.
