Nest thermostat compatibility

I tried to chat with support but chat was not working. Attached is a pic of my wiring in the wall. Will this be compatible with a nest thermostat?

Your current thermostat is only compatible with the Nest Learning Thermostat, 3rd Gen.

You want to use the bottom labels for "Heat Pump." Just match the label except for the black wire labeled L. That wire isn't used and should be taped off.

I have a split unit (heat pump is separate from other unit). Would I use the bottom or top labels?

I was able to install two learning thermostats in my home over the weekend. The info here in this thread helped. Thanks!

Hey Atilla76,

 

Thank you so much for reaching out. From the information you have provided, I am unsure if you are compatible. Do you mind me asking if you know what the Q11, and Q14 wires functions are? Are you able to upload a picture of your current wire setup? Please let me know, as I would be happy to take a closer look.

 

Best regards,

Jake

Hi Jack, 

Je n'ai pas trouvé de réponse pour mon installation. 

Je n'arrive cependant pas à télécharger de photo sur ce site. 

Je ne sais pas à quoi correspond ces deux fil malheureusement.

Hey Atilla76,


I am sorry to hear you are having trouble still. We have limited information on HVAC systems, and I would recommend contacting a pro for further help. They would be able to review your system, and determine what the functions of the wires do. I know this is not the most ideal answer, but please let me know if you have any questions from here.

 

Best regards,

Jake

Bonjour à tous, 

Comme neilm3050 je cherche à savoir si mon installation serait compatible. 

J'ai 4 fils qui arrive sur mon thermostat actuel (Siemens). Phase (Rouge) + Neutre (Bleu). 

 1 fil noir sur une bornier Q11 et un gris sur un bornier Q14. 

Par avance merci!

PS : je n'ai réussi à mettre de photo.
