how do i replace a tekmar 256 controller with a NEST - hot water system with weill mcclain boiler

I have a single zone hot water heating system fired by a  weill mcclain gas fired boiler with a pump

The controller is a Tekmar 256 with outdoor sensor. It seems to have a R T and C wires labelled and the others are just for sensors

The wiring manual for the Tekmar has this picture

How do i put the nest here?

Hey ulall,

 

Reviewing the post and wiring diagram you had sent, I would recommend having a Nest Pro come out and take a closer look. Each system can be a little different, and it's best to have someone in person to review and ensure the device is set up correctly. I understand that this is not the most ideal answer, but I would not want to cause damage to your system if something is installed incorrectly. 

 

Best regards,

Jake
