New furnace

We had a new gas furnace installed recently.  The Nest thermostat installed previously has a new alert.  When I turn up the heat, the notation indicates the length of time it will take to reach that temperature. Sometimes it is 30 minutes, higher temperature could take 60 minutes.  The old furnace never noted that time indicator.  Should I do a reset for the new furnace?

The time estimate is calculated by the Nest thermostat and it it uses the weather data from the internet and the past heating system performance. It will get more and more accurate the longer it operates the furnace.  Over the course of a few weeks it will achieve this needed accuracy.
