tado° Smart Radiator Thermostat - Quattro Pack, Add-ons for Multi-Room Control, Intelligent Heating Control

Product Information

When not being heated it'll report -2C colder than it actually is which causes the heating to be unnessessarily turned on. We didn’t have to sacrifice any heat to save energy, and that feels like what smart heating should be all about. as real users, posing a threat to a site’s security, so the site sometimes runs random security checks. Nest’s setup (which only records the temperature from one point in the home) was unable to recognise when it was cold upstairs, and hence wouldn’t turn the heating on.

Control from the Apple Home app is a little basic, and changes to temperature follow the rule you have set for manual changes in the app (it’s effectively the same as changing the temperature from the main thermostat). You can add as many additional Smart Thermostats, Smart Radiator Thermostats or Add-ons to your Starter Kit as you want. One work around was to put a Smart Thermostat into the room, which would default to be the primary temperature sensor. Add-on for individual control of radiators or rooms, offering possibility of additional energy savings.A standard smart thermostat today, an system that gives you control over each radiator individually tomorrow, the Tado system can grow with you. I (1) create a timeblock, (2) set it to the highest temperature, (3) divide the block into two halves, (4) divide the second halve into two halves, (5) lower the temperature for the newly created blocks. Window detection is configurable on a per-room basis, both as a toggle switch to turn the feature on or off, and a setting to choose how long it lasts for.

I work as a BMS engineer (heating and ventilation controls) and this product is actually embarrassing.The central thermostat is a little unintuitive to use because of its combination of a physical button and a touchscreen. Somewhat confusingly, the area to the left of the physical button is then used as a touchpad to raise and lower the temperature. However, Tado has since rectified this and made it possible to copy schedules to make setting up the smart thermostat far easier. While playing with all the bells and whistles of a smart heating system is fun, the real test is how much energy it saves you.
