Hi all
I have a wired smart thermostat V3+ Starter kit with internet bridge which turns the boiler on and off and I am looking to get some tado smart radiator thermostat valves, do they work through the wired smart thermostat to turn the boiler on or will I need the extension kit to the boiler. I have a traditional boiler with timer for hot water.

    The radiator valves will communicate with the wired thermostat to turn the the boiler on/off. You simply need to buy the valves, nothing else.

    When you do install the valves they don’t have to communicate with the main thermostat, referred to as the zone controller. You can put the valves in independent mode where they don’t call for heat, but they simply regulate the temperature. This means the valve is only active when the rest of the home is being heated, a bit like a conventional TRV.

    Ok thanks that makes sense, did think that’s how they would work but wanted to be sure before buying.
