Outside the City

How do I get my new nest thermostat to use the zip code from another city for more accurate outside temperatures?  I live 8 miles outside the city that my zip code is associated with (unincorporated city life). I have another city much closer to where I live with much more similar temperatures.

Hi there,

 

Thanks for the follow up information. You have a Nest Thermostat 2020. You can change your thermostat address by going to Settings then Home Info in the Google Home app. 

 

Regards,

Jenelyn

Hey Nest7405,

Just one final check in here since activity has slowed down. We'll be locking the thread in the next 24 hours, but if you still need help, we would be happy to keep it open. If there's more we can do, just let us know.

Best,
Emerson

Jenelyn,  thank you. I was able to make the change.  It was a little odd but it worked. My actual address is now wrong for google home but I get a closer temperature match and was able to use the embedded map feature to ensure my nest knows physically where it is located.  This would be great information for others that live far from their incorporated city.

Hi Nest7405,

 

We appreciate your update. It's understandable that your home address would be different because of the changes you've  made. It's part of the integration of your Google account for more accurate connections with your other Nest devices. Let us know if you have more questions in mind.
