With the heating season just around the corner, many of your customers are probably thinking about how to stay comfortable during the colder months. Get ready and stock up with Nest thermostats. They all come with energy-saving smarts, HVAC monitoring and heat pump controls. And with three competitive price points, you'll have solutions for every customer.
HVAC monitoring
Google Nest HVAC monitoring can help identify issues with eligible heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. It's a feature built into all Nest thermostats that looks out for potential problems with a customer's system and sends an alert if something doesn't seem right, so they can easily book a repair with you—their Nest Pro.1 No additional subscriptions, sensors, hardware or labour required. It's a great way to stay connected to your customer through the life of the system, from maintenance to repairs and eventual replacement.
HVAC monitoring is available in eligible regions in the US and Canada. If you would like to learn more about HVAC monitoring, click here.
Nest thermostats work with standard 24 V controlled heat pumps.2
Nest thermostats have improved intelligent features built in to make the heat pump work even more efficiently.3 They use information from a recent heating or cooling cycle—including the heat pump's runtime, data from local weather forecasts and the temperature in the home—to actively adjust how much auxiliary heat is used. For example, if the system heats to the customer's preferred temperature quickly, the auxiliary lockout temperature may decrease.
Nest thermostats help prevent overheating the home by turning off expensive auxiliary heat before reaching the target temperature, so it's only used when it's needed. That keeps the temperature just right, while maximizing savings for your customers.
