Will a Nest Thermostat work for me?

I have a Freidrich heating and cooling unit in our bonus room.  It was wired but we never had a thermostat installed.  When it was installed we told them that we wanted to eventually hook up a Nest thermostat but I'm thinking that this is not an option.  Looking at the wires on the unit they're labelled R, W, Y, O, GL, GH, C.

Is there any Nest thermostat that will work for me here?

Adding that the wires available are red, green, black, brown and blue.

Hi there mcpen,

 

I appreciate you reaching out to the community.

 

While most of your wires suggest a Nest thermostat might be compatible, two wire labels hint that your current system uses different wires to control the fan speed settings.

 

To confirm full compatibility, we recommend contacting one of our recommended technicians. You can refer to this compatibility checker for more information regarding thermostat wires.

 

Let me know how it goes.

 

Regards,

Angel.
