One way to check it is to stand next to your existing system and stream a video online. Chances are that if the video runs smoothly without any pauses then your wifi is good enough. If it doesn\u2019t then you might want to consider upgrading your wifi.<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>Wiring: After turning it off check the wiring of the existing system. If there are 2 wires then you probably have a 220V heat, which isn\u2019t recommended for wifi thermostats. However, if there are thin wires of 18 gauge, then it has a lower voltage. Although if there is a C terminal, then that means that any thermostat will work for you.<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>Type of HVAC system: Not all thermostats are compatible with all kinds of HVAC systems. You need to determine the number of heating and cooling stages so that they are compatible with your thermostat. The easiest way to find out about this is by researching the model number written at the back of the unit online.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Presenting the product<\/h2>\n<p>If you are someone who fits the above criteria and would benefit from wifi thermostat, while remaining under a budget, then you should consider the Nest E thermostat. The reason why this model is cheap compared to other Nest thermostat models is that it has a plastic body instead of a glass or stainless steel one.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Despite being made of plastic, it still has a modern and attractive design. The interface is simple and has a frosted screen.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, it is easy to replace it with your old thermostat and simple to plug into any HVAC system. The Nest E is compatible with almost 85% of 24V HVAC systems.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Much like any other thermostat, it is compatible with Google Home, Amazon\u2019s Alexa, but is not compatible with Apple HomeKit. What\u2019s more, is that you can choose from a range of heating and cooling modes. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, Nest E can alert you once the filter or furnace needs to be replaced. It also generates reports that summarize the energy use of your house and sends them to you via email.<\/p>\n<p>While Nest E offers a great lot of features under the price that it is for, but a lot of people also prefer the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B06W56TBLN?tag=climesense-20&amp;linkCode=ogi&amp;th=1&amp;psc=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ecobee 3 Lite<\/a> in the same price range because it works well if the rooms are far away from the thermostat. Moreover, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B0131RG6VK?tag=climesense-20&amp;linkCode=ogi&amp;th=1&amp;psc=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nest Learning thermostats<\/a>, which are a bit more expensive than this offer more features and have a glass and stainless steel device that is compatible with almost 10% more HVAC systems.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Also if you want a cheaper alternative then the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B01LTHM8LG?tag=climesense-20&amp;linkCode=ogi&amp;th=1&amp;psc=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Honeywell Home T5+<\/a> is a good option that is compatible with the Apple home system as well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 20px; text-align: left;\"><strong>Pros<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCompatible with Alexa and Google Home<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCheaper than other Nest models<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSimple installation<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSimple installation<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tGenerates reports<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"font-size: 20px; text-align: left;\"><strong>Cons<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tNot compatible with Apple Homekit<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe remote monitor does not have occupancy<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe frosted screen can be hard to read<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Features &amp; Benefits<\/h2>\n<h3>Let\u2019s see the features that the Nest E has that make it a must-have:<\/h3>\n<h4>1. Compatibility with HVAC systems<\/h4>\n<p>Even though it has lesser inputs than other Nest models, it is compatible with quite a few HVAC systems. Nest also at times provides a tool that determines if your system is compatible with it or not.<\/p>\n<p>Frozen pipes in winter are very common especially when your thermostat has been sitting idle. The safety mode in the Nest V3 activates itself if the temperature drops below the pre-set one. You also get notified when the temperature returns to the normal one.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>2<\/strong>. Eco Mode<\/h4>\n<p>This allows the thermostat to automatically deduce if you are home or not. If no one is home, then it goes into the eco mode to save your energy consumption. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>3.<\/strong> Multiple Heating &amp; Cooling<\/h4>\n<p>The efficiency of the thermostat is great because you can enable the Eco temperature mode in which the thermostat adjusts to low temperature when it gets hot and high temperature when it gets cold.<\/p>\n<h4>4. Auto scheduling<\/h4>\n<p>Similar to the Nest Learning thermostats, this too learns your temperature settings on its own and automatically replays that schedule without you having to reprogram it.<\/p>\n<h4>5. Airwave<\/h4>\n<p>This is a great power-saving tool. The AC shuts off the compressor when the temperature reaches a specific point. Once the temperature starts getting warm it automatically switches off the fan and turns on the air compressor.<\/p>\n<h2>Social Proof<\/h2>\n<p>Before I bought the Nest E thermostat, I studied tons of customer reviews, so I knew what I was getting into. Most of them praised the price factor and appreciated the fact that it had most of the features that the high-end models did.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Many also complimented its design and instead of complaining about the plastic material, they appreciated it for its simplicity.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, many found that the installation was very easy and was compatible with most HVAC systems. Many found that this was a very affordable thermostat especially since these people were the ones who had bought similar models in this price range which weren\u2019t as advanced as the Nest E thermostat.<\/p>\n<p>The following are some of the reviews:<\/p>\n<div class=\"ast-oembed-container\" style=\"height: 100%;\"><iframe title=\"How to install the Google Nest Thermostat E\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/83Wa2aMt5Ns?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"427\" height=\"170\" src=\"https:\/\/climesense.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/sss.jpg\" alt=\"sss\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/climesense.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/sss.jpg 427w, https:\/\/climesense.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/sss-300x119.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 427px) 100vw, 427px\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"483\" height=\"231\" src=\"https:\/\/climesense.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/ssss.jpg\" alt=\"ssss\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/climesense.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/ssss.jpg 483w, https:\/\/climesense.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/ssss-300x143.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 483px) 100vw, 483px\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"507\" height=\"238\" src=\"https:\/\/climesense.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/sssss.jpg\" alt=\"sssss\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/climesense.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/sssss.jpg 507w, https:\/\/climesense.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/sssss-300x141.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 507px) 100vw, 507px\"><\/p>\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>The Nest E thermostat overall is a very budget-friendly thermostat that offers quite a lot in its price range. It can learn your schedules, instead of manually programming it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The installation is very easy and it is a must-have if you have Nest temperature sensors. Its design, despite being made of cheaper material is still sought after because of its simplicity and modern design.<\/p>\n<p>Although it\u2019s true that it lacks some features and is not compatible with Apple homeKit, it is still a good purchase. It is essentially a junior form of the Nest Learning thermostats &#8211; that are a bit more high end &#8211; but has similar learning features as them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you still feel you would prefer other models then this article recommends some as well.<\/p>\n<p>Click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B074NBTCY7?tag=climesense-20&amp;linkCode=ogi&amp;th=1&amp;psc=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a> to shop now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How many times have we considered changing our thermostats because they kept breaking down and the extra money spent on the repair could have been used to buy a new one?
