Nest Learning Thermostat - Set time duration of operation

[CF-188]

Hello there,

It's a quick/easy question, does the "Nest Learning Thermostat" allow you to control how long you want your operation to be active for? Let's say I want it to heat up the place up for only 20 minutes at a particular time.

I've been trying to find an article on this topic but I haven't yet. Perhaps this option is not included with this brand? 

Thanks!

I don't think that's a direct option, but can you do it indirectly?  E.g., set your schedule to heat to 75 at 9:00 and to 50 at 9:20.

Hi CF-188,

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

What CBFox has mentioned was right. There were no direct options for us to control how long you want your HVAC system operation to be active for. What you can do is to set a temperature schedule and from there, your thermostat will activate the heating and cooling depending on the set schedule.

Thanks for your help, CBFox.

Best regards,

Ryan
