Longest lasting/best batteries?
I'm looking to swap out all the batteries on my 9 TRVs before I go away for two weeks over Christmas just to be sure nothing will go wrong while I am away. I noticed I can use Alkalines or Eneloop brand rechargeables. Which would last longest? So far I have looked at standard Duracell and the 100% Extra Duracells. I also…

V3+ Support lifetime?
I'm currently investigating my options to "smarten" my heating system. Unfortunately my Junkers heater does not support opentherm. It uses a proprietary HT-bus protocol that the newer Thread-based X system does not support. That is why I'm considering to go for the older V3+ system, but then the question rises: how long…

Installation where to place Wires
I have followed and tried to contact Tado who I’ve just directed me to the app which is not helpful at all. This is my current wiring, and I am just unsure which wire to put in which slot on the Tado wireless receiver. If anybody could please tell me! This is a link to the current wiring and a photograph of where I need to…

Add humidity in the tiles
The current tiles have enough room to add more information like humidity. Additionally you could a a toggle in the settings to toggle on/off certain displays.

Set minimum opening percentage on smart radiator valves
Despite fiddling with pump speeds and lockshields, I still get water rushing noise in some of my radiators when the smart valves are open only a small amount. Being able to increase the minimum opening percentage would prevent this.

V3+ not calling for heat
Bit of background - bought a Hive but realised it was not WiFi, so bought this instead. So the boiler (Morco GB24) has a simple timer switch (heating only being controlled). Fitting the Hive meant using grey wire 4 to the NO side of the timer switch and linking Common and Live on the Hive side leaving the switch in the…

tado v2 behaviour
I have a tado wired (relay) stat and the v2 bridge (the soap bar style one without the homekit integration). Relay rather than digital setup. Now its heating season, all the 'strange' things tado does are back and annoying me like before so I just wanted to see if anyone else is seeing the same behaviour or if I need some…

Don't recalibrate smart radiator thermostats at night
I think I'm slowly getting used to the sound of the radiator valves turning on in the morning. But in the middle of last night I was woken up by the one in the bedroom doing a full on/off cycle - presumably a recalibration? Maybe following an update? I could hear other valves in the house doing a full cycle afterwards,…

Suggestion: enable Homekit Away/ Home automation
Tado should allow homekit users to toggle the home / away status of tado, using homekit automations. Issues; - Expensive - Tado charges £29.99/y just to toggle auto geofencing (extortion). - Privacy issues - I have to always share my location data with tado. I don't want to do this. - No support for guest / multi house…

Tado TRVs Heating Control
I have installed the V3+ along with some smart TRVs. Can anyone tell me how these interact with the heating system? I assumed the TRVs would be just set up to allow the room to heat to the desired temperature as and when the heating comes on. Or is it that the TRVs will bring the heating on if that specific room falls…

Feature suggestion: auto add energy bills
Having to manually add bills is a pain, especially on flexi tariffs, that have multiple bills per month sometimes, and bill in pence per Kwh - not £/kwh. Considering it costs £29.99 I think bills should automatically be synced with energy providers and as a fall back you should be able to share a PDF with the tado app and…

Help with 3 channel thermostat
Hi, I’ve recently purchased a tado wireless v3 starter set. I have a Riello boiler and separate hot water controls with a wired thermostat. I was sure this would work. I’ve now realised that I have a 3 channel thermostat EPH R37 HW which the set up app says is not compatible with tado. I’ve looked online and it seems…

Vaillant Turbomax plus 824E
Has anyone connected the V3+ starter kit to a Vaillant Turbomax plus 824E? I don’t want to go out and buy it and find it’s not compatible or doesn’t work properly once fitted or it takes weeks to set up and is a pain in the buttcheeks. Thanks for any info 👍🏻
