Nest thermostats, located on the wall at the start of the hallway, don’t have a touch screen. Use it just like a normal thermostat, turn the ring up when you want it a little warmer, and turn it down when you want it a little cooler. Press your thermostat ring towards the wall to see more options.
The thermostat is locked between 72 to 80 degree range.
Reaching desired temperature requires adequate time especially during summer months due to extreme heat. Lowering the thermostat to 50 degrees will not cool the home faster.

Before you turn the gas key, first, ignite the long and put it over the firepit. NEVER turn the gas key first then try to light the firepit.
Turn the gas valve slowly
Turn the gas key slowly, to the left, until the fire ignites. Turning it too fast and too much could result in a big ignition resulting in burns or injury.
Keep flame manageable
After ignition, please keep the flame small and manageable. You may turn it up in small increments if you need more heat. The firepit produces a lot of heat at higher settings and could be dangerous when left at higher settings.
