Hi spjones,

Have a look at the Chromecast help center links below that show you how to first factory reset your Chromecast.

https://support.google.com/chromecast/answer/6254654 

And then set up the device for your new WiFi network.

Open your Google Home app on your phone or tablet and go to the Set Up Device button. This will set up a direct connection to your Chromecast and load your current WiFi info into it. You shouldn't need to factory reset anything. At least, I never have in the dozens of times I've added or moved a Chromecast.
