Power consumption greatly increased by at least a third

Power consumption jumped after installing NESST.  I saw another thread where 3-4 people said same thing but no real answer but check your schedules.  There are all check and we ensure they go on and off at the right time.  Might need to replace.

Hi Hardingdg,

 

Thanks for reaching out to the Google Nest Community.

 

We're sorry to hear about what's happening and we're here to help. Could you tell us what type of HVAC system you're using (heat-pump, dual fuel, multi-zone)? Have you tried setting your temperature schedule on your Nest Thermostat? 

 

Also, check out this link to know more on how we can save energy using the Nest Thermostat.

 

Best regards,

Ryan

In case anyone else see this, the thermostat was programmed with the wrong wires codes during the setup.  The heat was only working off of emergency heat so it was using double the consumption.
