Nest Thermostat Compatibility Check

Hello, I tried the Google Compatibility checker and it told me to post a picture to get a closer look. If someone could help it would be appreciated! It is not letting me post a picture.

Hi Samurai3000,

 

Thanks for posting in the community! I understand the Google compatibility checker asked for a picture, and you're having trouble uploading it. I'm satisfied to help you figure out the best way to share the necessary information.

You have a couple of options to provide us with the details needed for a compatibility assessment:

Option 1: Describe Your Wiring.

Since you're having trouble uploading a picture, describing your wiring in detail is a great alternative. Please provide the following:

  • What specific Google Nest thermostat model are you planning to install? (If you're unsure, "How to tell which Nest thermostat you have" can help.)
  • What type of HVAC system do you have?
  • Please list all the wire colors connected to your current thermostat and their corresponding terminal labels (e.g., 'Red wire on R,' 'White wire on W,' 'Blue wire on C').

Option 2: Try Uploading Your Picture.

If you'd still like to try uploading the picture, please follow these steps:

  1. Reply to this post to open the message editor.
  2. Look for the camera icon (or a similar attachment icon) in the toolbar above the text box.
  3. Click the icon; you'll likely be asked to drag and drop your picture into the designated area.
  4. Please ensure your picture is in .JPG or .PNG format, as both are generally accepted.
  5. Drag your picture into the upload area. If the file size exceeds the limit, you'll see a warning message.
  6. Once the picture is uploaded, post your message.

If the above steps still don't allow you to upload the picture, please save it to a cloud service (like Google Drive, Dropbox, etc.) and provide us with a shareable link.

Once I have the necessary information, whether through a description or a picture, I can give you a more accurate compatibility assessment. I look forward to assisting you.

 

Regards,

Humberto
