The whole of the population on this site seem incapable of:
(a) Knowing what the Maximum Duration setting is, on a Nest Thermostat, and
(b) Having the intelligence to answer a straightforward question without introducing irrelevancies.
Please, Senior Managers, and Google employees follow threads from my account, and put your house in order. I can find no other way of directing you to the correspondence.
My most recent post was as follows:
I am not surprised at your answer. I don't believe that anybody in Nest understands what the Maximum Duration is. I don't know what the exact, scientific possibilities are, but I provided approximate, sample, temperatures and times as possible scenarios. You seem unable to understand these simple concepts. Your reply included the following:
"To answer your question, the reason might be that the coldest it is , the longer it would take the boiler itself to warm up the house, regardless of the Max Duration. This depends very much on the power of the boiler."
THE ABOVE IS SO OBVIOUS THAT IT DOESN'T NEED STATING. IT IS NOT RELATED TO MY EXAMPLE.
You also state:
"It should be technically impossible in a scenario where you need to reach 23 from -30 in 2 hours of full blast heating. You can leave it set for 5 hours just in case, and the thermostat should learn that it doesn't always need 5 hours to heat up and it should start whenever it's reachable. The 5 hours are only the threshold. "
YOU OBVIOUSLY DON'T KNOW WHAT THE MAXIMUM DURATION IS. IT ALSO APPEARS THAT NOBODY ELSE IN NEST KNOW WHAT THE MAXIMUM DURATION IS.
DOES ANY MANAGER OR ANY EMPLOYEE OF GOOGLE KNOW WHAT THE MAXIMUM DURATION IS, OR ARE YOU SELLING AN ILLEGALLY_ADVERTISED PRODUCT?
