How do I change ownership of my Nest Thermostat
If you’re thinking about changing the ownership of your Nest Thermostat, you’ve come to the right place. Changing the ownership of your Nest Thermostat is a relatively simple process, and in this article, we’ll walk you through the steps you need to take.
First, you need to make sure that you are logged into your Nest Account. If you don’t have a Nest Account yet, you can create one from the Nest website. Once logged in, click on the “Settings” tab at the top of the page. On this page, locate the “Owner & Family” section and click “Change Owner”.
You will then be asked to enter the email address of the person who will become the new owner of your Nest Thermostat. Enter their email address and click “Send Invite”. The new owner will receive an email from Nest with a link to accept the invitation to become the new owner of your Nest Thermostat. Once they accept, they will be able to control your thermostat from their own account.
Next, it is important to make sure that any existing users who had access to your previous Nest Thermostat are removed as owners so that they no longer have access to it. To remove them as owners, go back to the Settings page and click on “Owner & Family” once again. In this section, you’ll see a list of all the current owners of your Nest Thermostat. Click the “Remove” button next to any user you want to remove from the list of owners.
Finally, it’s time to set up the new owner with their own account. Ask them to create a Nest Account if they don’t already have one, then click the “Add Family Member” button in the “Owner & Family” section. This will allow them to control your Nest Thermostat from their own account.
And that’s it! You’ve successfully changed the ownership of your Nest Thermostat to a new owner. Now they can control it from their own account, and you can rest assured that any previous users who had access to it are now removed as owners.
How do I remove Nest Thermostat from previous owner
Removing a Nest Thermostat from the previous owner is usually not a difficult process, but depending on the type of Nest thermostat model you have, the process may vary slightly. The first step is to make sure that you have access to the Nest account that was previously associated with the device. If you don’t have access to this account, the previous owner will need to disconnect the device from their own account before you can connect it to yours.
Once you are sure that the thermostat is no longer connected to any other accounts, you can begin the removal process. Depending on your model of Nest thermostat, there are two different ways to remove it: With a Nest Screwdriver or without one.
If you are removing the Nest Thermostat with a Nest Screwdriver:
1. Unscrew the screws on the back of your Nest thermostat and carefully remove it from the wall.
2. Disconnect all wires from the back of the thermostat.
3. Insert your Nest Screwdriver into the hole on the back of your thermostat and turn it counterclockwise until it stops moving. This will release any remaining power in your thermostat and remove it from its base plate.
4. Carefully lift and remove your thermostat.
If you do not have a Nest Screwdriver:
1. Unscrew the screws on the back of your Nest thermostat and carefully remove it from the wall.
2. Disconnect all wires from the back of the thermostat.
3. Insert a flathead screwdriver into the hole on the back of your thermostat and turn it counterclockwise until it stops moving. This will release any remaining power in your thermostat and remove it from its base plate.
4. Carefully lift and remove your thermostat.
