Will Google "Learning" Thermostat work with Bosch Heat Pump?

ccmulder

So apparently the Bosch system I had installed (heat/AC) has a sophisticated variable speed heat pump that has algorithms that allegedly the Google Nest "learning" thermostat interferes with and thus should not be used.  I had them install the Bosch Thermostat but I'd really much prefer the Google Thermostat.  I don't use the "learning" capabilities anyway and have that turned off.    Can I use the Nest with the Bosch inverter heat pump?

I tried installing a nest on my Bosch system and it doesn't work.

I am having problems with my Nest on my Bosch 2-stage heat pump now also.

Worked fine for last 10 months but now it won't reach desired temperature and barely cools.  

Nest tech support says it will work BUT I spoke with a Bosch expert today who says they do not recommend Nest as the Bosch unit has variable speed compressor output etc..  Several online posts regarding this same problem.

Like you, I also prefer the Nest but....

Hey everyone,

 

Thanks for reaching out here in the Google Nest Community.

 

There are a couple of things that we can check why we're getting this behavior from the Nest Thermostat. The location, HVAC filters and the equipment selection settings is significant.

 

@ccmulder, could you share a photo of your current wiring configuration so we can further check its compatibility.

 

Regards,

Ryan

Ryan, we are not in need of help because we gave up on the adventure and put the old thermostat back on.

Hi JMCisar,

 

Thanks for the reply.

 

We're sad to hear about the experience. It is not what we want, instead, we want to make it up to you by further checking what's going on and help you.


@ccmulder, I'd like to know if you've seen my last response. I'd like to take a look at your current wiring configuration so we can check its compatibility with the Nest Thermostat.

 

I hope to hear from you soon.

 

Regards,

Ryan
