Hello MikeNumberOne,
I completely resonate with your enthusiasm for energy conservation and making a positive impact on our environment. Your suggestion to schedule the Nest Thermostat for 15 minutes instead of one hour is a nice way to significantly contribute to energy savings.
By adjusting the thermostat settings in smaller increments, we can ensure that our homes remain comfortable while minimizing unnecessary energy consumption. However, it usually takes time for the system to generate heating or cooling, depending on the ambient temperature and how large the area is, as the system also needs to cool down to avoid unexpected turns on and off.
Thank you for sharing your insight. We're always looking for ways to improve, and we appreciate your feedback.
Best regards,
Mark
