Nest Heating

Why Choose a Nest Smart Thermostat?

Nest are one of the major players in the smart home tech boom. They make smart smoke alarms, security cameras, video doorbells and their flagship product is their learning thermostat. The Nest Gen 3 is the third generation of their learning thermostats and makes for a seriously smart home product.

There are two options to consider when buying a Nest Smart Thermostat: The Nest Learning Thermostat or the Nest Thermostat E. What they do is give their user a completely digital and smart way to control and track your heating. The Nest will also learn on the job to help you save energy. Nest Thermostats have been proven to help you save money on your energy bills, so these clever bits of kit can eventually end up paying for themselves.

The Nest Thermostat comes in a number of colour options and needs to be installed onto the wall or on a special stand by a professional. It connects with your heating apparatus and other smart home devices like Google Home or Amazon Echo. Not all homes are the same and the Nest will learn whether your home is draughty, when you’re in, what temperature you like and constantly adjusts and evolves to help match your personal tastes and habits. You can also control the hot water with Nest. This can also all be done via app, so you can make sure you’re returning to a toasty house and even track your usage all from your phone.

The Nest Thermostat E doesn’t need to be professionally set up, is cheaper to buy and can be installed anywhere in the house. It has a fantastic clean, minimal design, as do all their products, with a frosted display that helps it to blend seamlessly into your home. It can’t control the hot water but is a convenient and smart home device.
