Rh and rc jumper and Nest thermostat

[Tomb74]

I have a red wire going into the rh terminal, which has a jumper

wire between the rc and rh terminals in my thermostat.  Will the Nest thermostat work with my system if I connect the red wire to the r Nest terminal?

Hello folks,

Thanks for reaching out. I'd be happy to take a look into this.

Nest thermostats don’t use jumper wires, but if your current thermostat has a jumper wire your system may still be Nest compatible.

@Tomb74, you can connect directly the power wire to R terminal and follow the rest of the wire set up. Have a look at this article and let us know if you need more help.

@Natalymartinez, I appreciate you posting the picture of your Nest thermostat. To clarify, does your thermostat only have 2 wires (W & Rh)? Also, could you share us a picture of your previous thermostat wiring configuration?

Looking forward for your response.

Best regards,

Mark
