Tempetature drops

I have underfloor heating. I set my thermostat in this cold weather to 20 degrees (large open planned living dining area).  Initially it is good, nice and warm and floor is also warm. After a few hours, although thermostat still says 20, room turns cold and no floor heating. Seems to be cold air coming from somewhere 

What is going on?

Hi Tessav, 

 

Yikes! I'm sorry to hear that the temperature dropped after you called for heat with your thermostat. Let me take a look at this for you. A few questions: 

 

  • Are you located in North America or Europe? 
  • What type of Nest Thermostat do you have? 
  • Is the Nest Thermostat newly installed?
  • Did you use the Compatibility Checker tool to confirm the thermostat's compatibility. 
  • Does the thermostat screen indicate that it’s actively calling for heating? 
  • What type of furnace do you have? (gas, electric, etc.)
  • When did heating last work? 
  • Did heating ever work with the Nest thermostat? 
  • Did the heating work with the previous thermostat? 
  • Did you turn off the power to the HVAC system? 
  • Did you recently turn off any breakers?
  • Have you recently experienced a brownout or blackout? 
  • Is there a light switch near the heater that controls an outlet? 
  • Did you select the correct fuel type? 
  • Do the LED lights blink on the HVAC control board? If yes, locate the light. 
  • When was the last time you changed the furnace's air filter? 
  • Have you experienced extremely cold weather lately?
  • Is this the first notable temperature drop of the year in the area?

 

I'll look forward to your response. 

 

Best,

Zoe
