Nest Heating & Cooling Thermostat Setup:

After a Nest learning thermostat has been mounted to the wall and its wiring connections made, menus on the Nest thermostat will guide you through a sequence of Nest thermostat set-up steps in which you provide basic information that will allow the device to work properly.

Using photographs and text we expand on the Nest learning thermostat installation guide to show you what the various Nest displays look-like and to explain on more detail what you need to do at each step in the Nest initialization pocess.

This article series provides detailed photographs and text describing how to how to install, make wiring connections, and then set-up a Nest Learning Thermostat, beginning with removing the old wall thermostat, labeling its wires, preparing the wall for the new thermostat, then installing the Nest Thermostat and getting it working nicely.

We also provide a MASTER INDEX to this topic, or you can try the page top or bottom SEARCH BOX as a quick way to find information you need.

How to Set Up or Program & Initialize a Nest Thermostat

What Happens when the Nest Thermostat Power is First Turned On: Nest Software Update & Re-Start

When first powered-on after mounting and wiring, the Nest thermostat will then pass through a number of self-intializing steps. The Nest, now happily connected to the Internet, will check for and download any updates to its programming software. After the software has been updated the Nest will turn itself OFF, then back ON to reinitialize its programming.

[Click to enlarge any image]

Depending on the model and software level of your Nest thermostat, you may see displays such as those just above, or other Nest update displays such as the two shown below.

After the Nest has enjoyed visiting it's birth-home website to check for updates to its instructions it will re-start. You may see the display go black, then it will be illuminated again.

When the Nest programming is complete, rotating the outer bezel selects among major features and functions such as checking or setting time, main display or thermostat, setback or energy savings settings, etc, OR when you are in the process of setting a Nest parameter rotating the outer bezel chooses a function or setting that you then activate by pressing the display face inwards.

Programming Steps to Set Up & Initialize a Nest Thermostat

You will see a series of Nest thermostat setup choices and stages.

1. Select your language.

In case it's not immediately obvious, you choose a menu choice by rotating the outer bezel of the Nest thermostat to highlight your selection, then as we illustrate below, to confirm your choice, press the center of the display to select your choice.

For exapmle, below I've dialed the nest outer ring to select the letter 'A' and I'm pressing the display face to select that choice - this step was in the course of entering the Internet router passcode for this thermostat - as you'll see in more detail just below.

2. Connect to the internet: you'll select a wireless internet server (presumably your own), and then enter the router's password by rotating the bezel of the display and pressing its center to select numbers or letters

3. Set your location - the Nest will suggest a City or you may need to enter it manually by setting a zip code or postal code. Setting the location allows Nest to consider the local weather forecast and to set the proper clock time. The Nest will suggest a city. If you say 'No' then you'll enter a country and postal code.

Since this thermostat was not located in Middletown NY (Nest's guess was close but not correct), we rotate the outer ring of the thermostat to select the 'No' option then press the center of the display to activate that choice. When you select 'No' Nest will allow you to select your continent, then your country [illustrated below]

then postal code [in process, with three digits entered, illustrated below].

Don't worry if you make a data entry error. At the end of any step you'll see a CHANGE option that will let you back up to correct a mistake.

4. Describe the type of building in which the Nest thermostat is being installed: single family home, multi-family home, apartment/condo, or business.

5. Select the type of 'Heating' or 'Cooling' system that the Nest thermostat is going to control. Here we're setting up a heating control and choosing among Forced Air, In-Floor Radiant heat, Radiators or 'More Info'.
   The home where this thermostat will be used is heated by a hydronic heating system: forced hot water sent through wall-mounted convectors. We chose RADIATORS as the closest option.

As you progress through the Nest thermostat programming steps you'll see that the display will let you know your progress among the steps.

Above: the check-marks tell us that we've successfully told the Nest thermostat our language, we've set up and successfully connected the thermostat to the internet via a local router and router password, we've told the Nest where the building is located, and we've described the type of heating system that's to be controlled by the thermostat. N
ext will be to tell the Nest some temperature preferences.

6. Set temperature minimum or 'away' level. You'll see that we want the lowest temperature in this building to be set at 50 deg. F.

To understand thermostat set-back settings

see THERMOSTAT SETBACK ADVICE.

More about setting back a thermostat and about freezeproofing a building can be read

at WINTERIZE - HEAT ON PROCEDURE

Also see this ARTICLE INDEX to BUILDING FREEZE PROTECTION

7. Allow the system to proceed through a system test to confirm that the thermostat can turn heating or cooling 'on' or 'off'

Below the Nest is letting us know how the test of its connection to the heating system is going.

[Click any image to see a larger, detailed version] The Nest informs us that it's testing the W1 wire that should turn on heat, and it asks us to confirm that the radiators are in fact getting warm. Below you can see the Nest thermostat's report of the results of its test that it could control the heating system.

[Click to enlarge any image] to see a larger, sharp-resolution image of the Nest self-test display. The two images below are taken from a Nest 2 learning thermostat installation.

Below: this is what you'll see when the Nest 3 Thermostat installation and programming are complete. The display shows the present temperature (71 deg F) and the set temperature - the temperature that you're asking-for (60 deg F).

Below: I have set the Nest thermostat to call for 69 degrees F in the room by rotating the silver outer ring of the Nest. And just below the thermostat itself, I'm using an Exergen infrared temperature scanner to compare the approximate temperature of the wall below the Nest thermostat to the Nest's own indication of the room temperature. They both agree that the room - in the area of the thermostat - was at 71 deg F

'The Nest Learning Thermostat' is an electronic device that can control room temperatures and possibly other components connected to or installed as part of a home automation system. We have installed three of these in our test building and will report further on ease of installation, programming, and use as well as using and adjusting the Nest thermostat remotely from your cellphone, computer, or tablet.

Separately at NEST CAM INSTALLATION & USE we describe installing and using Nest cams (security cameras) or drop cams for both home security monitoring and for remote monitoring of a building for leaks, loss of heat, water or ice damage, or for intrusion or security issues.

Switch the Nest Thermostat to Cooling Mode

Question: can't switch Nest thermostat between heating & cooling

2019/11/19 Dennis said:

The nest stat does not bring on the fossil fuel furnace when the heat pump is set to shut off.

Dennis,

**IF** when your Nest thermostat was installed the thermostat wires that were connected included both heating and cooling systems, then your Nest TT can switch between those modes in two ways:

1. Manually, at the thermostat, press the Thermostat, then turn the dial to select cooling mode. I illustrate that just below.

Some CAT Mobile Phone User Manuals PDF are above the page.Caterpillar (CAT) is known as a manufacturer of, diesel engines, and even shoes. Cat s50 phone user manual pdf 2 10.

2. Remotely using the Nest thermostat control app; touch the 'heat' or 'cool' icon at the bottom left of the thermostat display screen to see the thermostat setting options.

If your thermostat is wired to control heating-only, then the only options that appear are 'HEAT' and 'OFF'.

If that's what you see (shown above intwo images) then your thermostat cannot control cooling mode and some wiring changes are needed.

Meanwhile, most-likely there is a second separate thermostat: one controlling heat and the other cooling. (That second case would be an odd installation for a heat pump set-up).

If your Nest thermostat is wired to control heating and cooling then when you press the icon at lower left on your app or dial to it on the nest themostat itself, the options you'll see are 'HEAT' 'COOL' and also 'HEAT-COOL' and 'OFF' as I show below.

By selecting among these icons on your Nest thermostat itself (dial and press) or on your smartphone app (press the icon), you can manually switch between HEAT and COOL - or - you can select HEAT-COOL and the thermostat itself will choose when it needs to change mode between heating and cooling.

Download Nest Thermostat Manual Instructions

If you think that your thermostat should be able to control both heating and cooling modes then let's check what wiring is connected.

Stepping through the thermostat set-up steps at the thermostat and that can also be reviewed beginning at NEST THERMOSTAT SET-UP & PROGRAMMING, you will find this display that shows the presence of both a 'heating' wire and a 'cooling' wire in your thermostat connections.

If you don't see both of those (as I show above then either the wire is not connected or it's broken or disconnected somhere in its route.

For heat pump set-ups that should be able to provid both heating and cooling, if the system won't switch into HEAT mode from COOL when it should or vice versa, and if the problem is not the thermostat or thermostat settings or wiring, then the problem is more-likely at the heat pump control-board or at the relay in the heat pump that switches between heating and cooling modes in the unit itself.
