typical day today been on three different job locations so salisa tell us about what you do so people can understand why you're the perfect candidate to road test our nest alright well I'm an interior designer and I specialize in kitchen and bath designs and part of that is how warm you know how comfortable is the space going to be both from a flow perspective as well as the temperature perspective so are you familiar with the Nest Learning Thermostat mmm no I have seen it in the apple store but I've not used it all right so salisa what I'm gonna do is give you this nest learning thermostat and I'm hoping that you'll install one in your house and then take one with you on job sites see how your contractors respond maybe clients just kind of integrate it into your interior design business awesome I'll give it a whirl here's your nest can't wait to try it elegant box looks like a hockey puck look any action hahaha yay we actually have an LED display very exciting so the installation i wouldn't say was difficult it was a little bit challenging i emailed nest they helped me and then we got it booted up how is going to be set to 63 degrees when we do it a bit awesome we'll check it out in the morning and we'll teach it what temp we want it to be when we wake up good morning day one this is kind of cool watch how'd you need it I'm going to set it back down to 64 and hopefully it'll learn from us that that's the low temperature that we want during the day because our birds need it to be a little warm these are our actual birds that live in our nest and here's flasher you can say hello flasher hi buddy so here i am i'm home i'm feeling like i don't want to get up and adjust my thermostat so i'm just going to do it for my phone well have it activate there it goes and I hear the furnace is kicked on awesome don't even have to leave my chair so good morning we're on day three of our nest so let's just crank it up to 66 and i'll check it from the road and just see where we are I want to see what the temperature situation is at the house so I want to make sure it doesn't get too cold it's kind of cool that on my phone or on my iPad I can check to see like oh did I turn the thermostat down or did it really learn that when I'm gone I want it down to 64 degrees so that's pretty cool all of a sudden I'm totally obsessed with thermostat check this baby out even high design places have low design thermostats time for it to change so Larry I have your nest excellent the nest is a digital thermostat or looks sleek adjust it to where you want it to be and then it will remember and it learns what temperature you like to keep your house at ya instrument to see how it works if it was it doesn't I have to whisper because I'm getting a massage but check out this wall tile thermostat so one question I had about the nest is whether or not I can move or replace my thermostat for my baseboard heaters in my office with the nest as well because it gets really cold down here I'm gone a lot and sometimes I forget to crank it down but unfortunately the nest does not work with high voltage systems so with this kind of set up a nest won't work too bad I wanted to show all this stuff this is really cool going back here to energy this indicator saying that the away feature cause our energy usage to be below the weekly average so it's still early for us to really have an average since it's only been just over a week but I think it's really cool yeah i think the nest is a great alternative to your typical plastic box this is really good looking and a way that our aesthetic alternative to a traditional thermostat
