tado Wired Smart Thermostat - Add-On Thermostat For Multizone Control, Digital Heating Management, Easy Installation, Save Heating Energy And Costs - Replacement Of Existing Wired Thermostats

We’ve installed a total of 10 tado° smart radiator thermostats throughout the house – including the bathrooms – and it’s honestly one of the best upgrades we’ve made. With a toddler and a baby in the house, being able to control the temperature in each room individually has been a massive help, especially during unpredictable UK weather. Installation was surprisingly easy. The app gave clear, step-by-step guidance and each valve only took about 10–15 minutes to fit. Once connected, the system worked seamlessly with our WiFi and Alexa. Now, we only heat the rooms we need, when we need them. For example, we keep the baby’s room warm in the evenings but don’t waste energy heating the spare room or hallway all day. The app is easy to use, and we’ve definitely noticed a drop in our heating bill since making the switch. We haven’t paid for the Auto-Assist subscription yet, and to be honest, it still does plenty without it. But we might give it a go next winter to see how much smarter it gets. If you’re looking to save on heating and gain more control room-by-room, I’d absolutely recommend this system.

Smart control of heating systems was raised in a recent catch-up with some former work colleagues. That got me thinking. After some googling, I happened upon Tado. The reviews I saw were very positive with ease of install was a strong point. I took the plunge and ordered a wired thermostat starter kit, an add-on wired thermostat and 7 smart thermostaric radiator valves. This was to control temperatures in downstairs rooms and have the ability to turn on and off heating upstairs (second wired thermostat). Installation was effortless. The instructions for the wired thermostat were a breeze to follow. Likewise, fitting the thermostatic valves to replace the original thermostatic control units was dead easy. We've have the Tado system running for a few weeks now and are massively impressed on how well it performs. Before, we turned the heating on and off based on how hot the Living Room felt, notwithstanding having mechanical thermostatic valves on all radiators. The previous downstairs wired thermostat was at the end of the hall and unaware of air temperatures elsewhere downstairs. Often times we were enduring 25 C+ living room temperatures with an open fire and central heating both pumping in heat. Now with Tado installed, the heating is left on continuously and, thanks to the Rado smart radiator valves, the temperature is regulated to a constant, comfortable 22C. We can also turn off rooms when they are not being used with ease on the Rado app. That would not have happened in the past as it was too much hassle to go to rooms and turn the thermostatic valves to the off position. We are so impressed with its performance, that we've ordered a further 6 radiator thermostatic valves to control the upstairs radiators. Final comment - we wish we'd known about this technology before the current energy price crisis and were able to take full advantage over the past year of hight energy costs. Final final comment, our three kids are equally impressed by what they've seen and are committed to going down the same route. Can't recommend this enough.

This might be a lengthy review but hopefully will provide an insight into my less than successful experience. I took some time looking at reviews of various smart heating systems before deciding on Tado. I spent £420 on 1 smart radiator starter kit, 1 smart thermostat and 3 smart radiator valves after consulting with Tado on the best setup for my home and required usage. I retained the hot water control via my existing programmer so didn’t need the extension kit. The items are packaged in a style and branding not dissimilar to that of Apple and although are of a plastic finish seem reasonably robust The online registration and system installation was easy and intuitive, and having a technical background I found it straightforward. I set up three zones, a living room with the smart thermostat and two smart radiator valves as recommended by Tado, a family room with 2 smart radiator valves on both radiators and 1 bedroom with a smart radiator valve. I didn’t want to invest in any more kit until I was sure that it did what Tado said it would. Connection of the internet bridge and pairing of all the components was uncomplicated as was fitting the valves, only two needed the included adapters, (on Danfoss valves.) I set the system up initially on the web interface and then downloaded the Tado App on to my iPhone. Programming the zones for different times and temperatures was simple to do either via the web interface or on the app. So with everything programmed we woke up to a cold house the next morning. The boiler had only fired for a short period. The schedule was set to warm the bedroom and family rooms before the living room which isn’t used until afternoon. Manually starting the living room by increasing the set temperature above the actual recorded temperature then enabled the other zones to warm up in line with the set-point temperatures. Thinking this might have been a one-off I left it but it did the same the next day, cold house in the morning. So it appears that the zone with the smart room thermostat in must be calling for heat before any other zone even though their smart radiator valves are calling for heat. And this is where it all goes downhill with Tado support. I tried throughout the day to call but was unable to get through, just a recording that all agents are busy and to try later (or leave a message.) So I emailed asking for help, and got a response saying that they had made changes to my system (I have no idea what, they didn’t say – and I couldn’t see any changes) to prevent the boiler short firing and not reaching full temperature on first starting and to let them know if it didn’t work. It didn’t so I replied by email but heard no more. I tried ringing but just got the same recorded message. However, they sent me a satisfaction request in dealing with the problem even though they hadn’t and still haven’t fixed it – unbelievable. I now have a response saying they are still dealing with the request for help which will take a few days more. This is not good enough Tado – I’m a new customer with a zone configuration that you recommended and it doesn’t work. Once the system does decide to start up then generally it works fine during the day although there are noticeable variations in the room temperatures before the system turns on the heating again so you can feel the temperature drop and then increase, i.e it doesn't maintain a comfortable constant temperature. You also need to check the actual room temperature with a separate thermometer agains the Tado set point temperatures and then adjust the offset on which ever device is set to monitor the room temperature. I haven’t tried the Geolocation feature yet or the relationship with Apple Homekit as I’d just like to get it working. So in summary, installation set up, programming and control in principle, very good. Functionality not so good Problem resolution and support poor. Tado if you read this I’d like a resolution please (i.d. 426017) so I can return all the items to Amazon for a refund within 30 days if you can’t fix this for me. EDIT- UPDATE. Tado have now fixed the problem remotely. I have therefore revised my rating.

Great product and very simple to install as already had a wired thermostat. As it’s Matter compatible I’m using Apple HomeKit and can keep all my automations in one place as Tado has subscriptions and Apple can do all that free of charge. If you already have matter products you don’t need to buy Tado started kit you can just buy the thermostat

Seems very good and well made. Easy to instal - connection adapters even for m 50 year old manual thermostatic valves. Quite pricey when you need a few.. but guessing it should pay off over the long term and nice to have accurate and easy control so we do switch it off when rooms are not in use.

Installate in appartamento con riscaldamento centralizzato. Sto testando ormai da una settimana le valvole termostatiche unitamente al bridge. Super soddisfatto su tutti i livelli. Inizio col dire che prima della scelta di acquistare le valvole termostatiche di Tado ho valutato con attenzione tutte le Marche, alcune già utilizzate dai amici. Ottimo il designer delle valvole, lo schermino tuch è a colori, essenziale e di facile comprensione. La parte superiore è costituita da anello mobile per la regolazione anche manuale della temperatura, il meccanismo ruota molto facilmente senza impuntature dando sensazione di grande qualità del meccanismo. Un plus a mio avviso è costituito dalla possibilità di ricaricare le batterie con usb, estendo la parte inferiore, dotata di ingresso usb tipo C. Non dovendo quindi utilizzare pacchi batterie da scartare o ricaricare. Quindi si guadagna in praticità. Il software mi ha sorpreso, super intuitivo, con una molteplicità di personalizzazione davvero notevole. Ogni valvola può lavorare indipendentemente ed essere personalizzata. La app permette di fare una programmazione settimanale per ogni valvola e quindi ogni stanza/calorifero, rileva anche l'umidità ed eventualmente se una finestra è aperta, se ne accorge, senza necessità di installare sensori sulle finestre stesse, e chiude in automatico la valvola, questo perché rileva un cambio termico improvviso. Utilizzabile anche la geocalizzazione familiare, ovvero a casa vuota rileva l'assenza delle persone e spegne le valvole o abbassa al minimo la temperatura a seconda di come impostate. Quindi quando si lascia la casa non ci si deve preoccupare di andare sulla app per diminuire al minimo la temperatura o spegnere in quando il sistema fa tutto da sé. La app è talmente completa che rende anche superfluo l'uso di Alexa o google home. Molto molto soddisfatto.

De momento funciona perfectamente. Compré 4 lo que me permite encender desde el móvil la calefacción de las estancias de forma independiente.

Fantástica solución de TADO para poder controlar de forma individual todos los radiadores de la casa ya que mediante una app y un equipo minúsculo conectado a un puerto ethernet del router, es posible controlar la temperatura de cada habitación de la casa. El único problema sería que el instalador desconozca la marca ya que los tutoriales son algo escuetos y, si no, se trataría de realizar una instalación de tipo ensayo-error, que al no representar ningún problema el desmontaje del cabezal termostático se hace sin problema. Una ventaja es que el cabezal incorpora 8 adaptadores para la unión entre el cabezal termostatico y la llave del radiador, por lo que es muy difícil que no se pueda hacer.

Die Installation der Thermostate war überraschend einfach und in wenigen Minuten erledigt. Die App ist übersichtlich aufgebaut und macht die Steuerung der einzelnen Räume wirklich komfortabel. Zeitpläne lassen sich flexibel einstellen, und man sieht sofort, wo Heizkosten eingespart werden können. Besonders praktisch finde ich die Einzelraumregelung und die automatische Anpassung an Abwesenheit oder offene Fenster. Das System reagiert zuverlässig und sorgt dafür, dass es immer genau dann warm ist, wenn man es braucht – und nicht unnötig Energie verbraucht. Die Verarbeitung wirkt hochwertig, die Verbindung läuft stabil und der Alltag wird spürbar erleichtert. Insgesamt ein sehr durchdachtes Smart-Home-Produkt, das Komfort und Effizienz sinnvoll kombiniert. Klare Empfehlung.
