Using a Nest Learning Thermostat with a fixed schedule

Hi

Totally new to Nest so excuse this question if it seems simple - I am looking to use a Nest Learning Thermostat as a traditional programmable timer (coming on for a few hours morning and evening) but to also get the boiler to come on for a while should one bedroom drop below 17 degrees: I intend to get a Nest TRV valve in that room

Is this possible?  What I dont want, with energy prices being so high, is for the boiler to fire up a lot more than I have had it in the past

Thanks

Hi AndySky,

 

Thanks for reaching out to the Community. I understand that you want to set up schedules for your Nest Thermostat. But no need to worry, help is here.

Before we get started with further details, let me ask you some important questions:

  1. What Generation of Nest Learning Thermostat model do you have?
  2. Is this the first time you are setting up the Nest device?
  3. If not, did you select smart schedules or other temperature preset settings during setup?
  4. Have you reviewed the temperature schedule for your thermostat?

While the Nest Learning Thermostat is designed to learn your habits and create a personalized schedule, you can also manually set a fixed schedule. In the meantime, here are some basic steps you can try to start the process:

Check Thermostat Settings:

  1. Adjust Schedule: You can modify your schedule at any time by tapping on the individual time slots and changing the temperature.
  2. Auto-Schedule: Consider using the thermostat's Auto-Schedule feature, which learns your habits and adjusts the schedule accordingly.
  3. Eco Mode: If you want to save energy, enable Eco Mode to automatically lower the temperature when you're away. Ensure your thermostat is set to the desired mode (heat or cool).

You can check the following guides to learn about the Temperature schedules for the Nest thermostat, to Learn about Nest thermostat temperature schedules and how to change them and to check about Temperature schedules for the Nest Learning Thermostat depending on your device’s model.

Please keep me posted.

 

Best,

Mario
