Modulating in relay mode
Is there a way to prevent this?

Hi @Danger8,
The Tado methodology of "assessing" the boiler heating activity is......inaccurate as it doesn't take into account any "real time" heating activity. The feature "looks good" but is meaningless.0 -
@Danger8 I don't think that 1 'wavey line' contributes to the time in 'heating activity?
For me, if I only have 1 'wavey line' showing in the app, the time does not go up. (or, it didn't when I thought the same...!)0 -
@Danger8 I also have tado thermostat wired in relay mode to the boiler (2 wires). The thermostat also shows only 1 wavy line for most of the time. What I think is a problem is that the boiler turns on for like 2-3 minutes and then water pump runs for another 5 minutes and it turns off. Everything is turned off for 2-3 minutes and then boilers turns on again. This scenario repeats over and over again. I'm not really sure if this is good for the water pump. How does you boiler work with tado? Is it the same?

@andertl same happens to my boiler: it starts for around 16 sec and then it enters in a strange stage (maybe pump is re-circulating the hot water) for around 2 min and 52 sec, this happens for many times. Also it seems to try to modulate the power - that sin wave icon shows just one item
Did you managed to solve the issue?

@ValiE Contact support. They are able to set minimum heating time and minimum time between two cycles. Default values are 180 seconds and 1200 seconds. I don't understand why this settings is not in the app. I had Netatmo previously and it was possible to set these parameters in the app.
