Hello
Ahead of purchasing a Nest Learning thermostat (3rd generation) I'd like to make sure it is compatible with my furnance, for which I have heard is "old". The Nest installation videos I watched online all have 4 wires, which is what I have too. However, I have a blue wire coming, while the videos I have seen all have green wire coming in.
Would anyone know if this is simply blue=green.
Thanks in afance

You need to pull the wall plate off of the back of the thermostat so we can see the terminal block and its labels.

Thank you @Patrick_Caezza
This is the back of the existing thermostat, with the panel taken off. Does that help?

Yes, it is compatible.
Just match the labels from this thermostat to the ones on the Nest, and you can ignore the gold jumper between R and Rc.
