| Questions to check before buying | A published compatibility list is a manufacturer statement, not a tested installation guarantee; the manufacturer compatibility checker and the actual wiring decide. The spec page lists the trim plate and steel plate as included accessories; the Nest Power Connector is not in the box list. Energy savings figures on the manufacturer pages are marketing claims and are not recorded as facts. |
