I'm looking purchasing a Tado system. Still surprised by the lack of companies providing smart thermostats that work with smart TRVs. Being able to independently control heating of rooms seems like a great option.
As a complete electro-phobe, I will not touch any electrics. However all heating engineers in the area wouldn’t look at Tado. I used your video and for the first time ever, I have done something electrical like this. Also the most fantastic thing ever, your exact Nest set up was like mine so it was really easy to follow!!! Thank you so much :)
Awesome, really good to hear the video helped.
Nice video, this is helpful.. One tip of advise.. Use the word "okay" less. This gets pretty annoying to hear after 20 times
👍
Sometimes you go to quick and I can follow it, but almost very good ,thanks!
Excellent video one of the best I’ve seen for a while and good instructional techniques.... describe it, demonstrate it, emulate it 👍
Thanks for the comment much appreciated my friend.
EXCELLENT!!!! The video I need because I wanted to change my nest thermostat with a Tado. Thank you, great job!
❤️
So the smart thermostat alone runs all of the radiators, while the addition of individual radiator thermostats allows for multi-zone control? correct me if im wrong just trying to understand.
Just ordered my Tado starter kit. Excited to get it up and running 🎉🎉🎉
Great video, I'll be getting this set up once I move out :D
Really good video - well done! Perfect instructions and very clear. Well done!
Thanks for the comment very much appreciated!
Pleasure. I'm debating between Tado and Nest but think I will go with Tado after this video. How are you finding it after having used it?
@@victorchirilas9005 this is a video review i did I dont personally use, it's a great product definitely has the edge over the nest but price is high and I didn't want another device were I have to change batteries, I personally hate having to replace on my alarm....especially the bell box outside!
Ah alright, no worries. Does nest have rad control lite Tado? I really like that each room is controlled separately and can activate the gas boiler to pump hot water to each room as required. Do you know if nest can do this?
Excellent review, certainly far better than the Tado web site or chat line. Two questions I have about the smart thermostat. If it’s set to let’s say 18* and the smart radiator thermostats set to various temp above 18* does the heating turn of when the smart thermostat reaches 18* or do the smart radiator thermostats override to keep the boiler on until each smart radiator has reached temp. Tado tell me that the smart thermostat under those circumstances is a relay for the smart radiator thermostats and a method of manually turning the hot water on an off. I too have a Nest system but would like a more controllable system.
I notice Tado also has another thermostat not the smart one, is it for pairing with a smart radiator thermostat to get a more accurate room temp reading rather than the ambiance temp reading at the smart radiator valve. Like I said Tado’s web site is not very informative and if I spen upwards of 4-500 I’d like to get it right. Thanks Colin.
Thanks Colin, its quite interesting how it works the main thermostat and rad thermostat try to maintain a temperature that you set, but if for example the temperature drops in a room that will turn the boiler on and heat that room and then turn off once the temp is reached and obviously if the other rooms are at their ideal temp then they will not heat up.
Excellent tutorial...have you thought of selling it to Tado?
Thanks, no need it was a video I worked on with them so they are aware of this.
i think its billiant it shows you how to install from other devices, my nest has been playing up not connecting (already been replaced once...) i was worried about how to install as i have never done it before with this i can feel confident!! i think im going to buy this..
Do the trv's trigger the boiler to come on or is it just the main room thermostat? Can you have more than one room stat in the home system?
The TRV's can trigger the boiler to come on
@@GeekStreet Can you show that?
Great review.
Considering this for the smart TRV support, which Nest doesn't have yet (I think).
Maybe a silly question, what does happen let's say when the thermostat and the TRVs are set to 18 deg except for one TRV, which is let's say set to 22 deg. Will all of the radiators come on when the system is activated to warm up the one room to 22?
Thanks for the comment, only that one will turn on.
I've just installed the tado setup and it doesn't work that way for me. My main thermostat needs to be calling for heat before the TRVs will do anything, as opposed to a cold trv being able to directly control the boiler.
On a Facebook support forum some people say that it's a setting that tado needs to do on their end which seems absolutely insane but is a common opinion.
I have also noticed that my thermostat won't work wirelessly, ie if I remove it from the wall mount, it doesn't work, like it isn't connecting to the extension kit.
I don't know if the extension kit should be installed first before the thermostat.
I have contacted support but they can be really slow, with tools ole covid surely exacerbating that particular situation.
So helpful info. Many Thanks.
Can you set the temperature on thermostat only by 1 degree Celsius or by 0.5C like nest?
Amazing review, very informative! Thanks👏👍
Impressive review & kit, just wish I could afford it... :)
Thanks, yes it's pretty expensive.
Hello. Is TADO best than the Nest 3rd? Tks
Can you place the thermostat in the same room as the radiator TVR? I've read no, but it TADO SMART enough make them work together properly?
superb video and info- one question .if all the rooms are off on the rad thermostat but you want just a bedroom on does it mater what the main thermostat is set to? ie the boiler will be heating one rad. Thanks
Thanks, no it will turn on, which suprised me.
@@GeekStreet My current room thermostat is wired to the boiler. it has two wires yellow and Red. Can i use this system without having to wire in a wireless boiler controller and just wire the Tado directly in with existing thermostat wires? No worries .Thanks again.
@Russell Silcox not sure, it maybe worth contacting the tado support team to confirm.
Great review
Do you have any thoughts on how this compares to Honeywell’s EvoHome system?
Thanks for the comment much appreciated, sorry I haven't reviewed that. I may do in the future.
I have a 3 wire stat on the wall
is there any smart WiFi thermostats that just replace that and you use alexa or a app to do the heat, timer without a control box
Excellent video, thanks!
You're welcome!
Any ideea why smart thermostat go to frost protection every evening same time?
I'm a bit lost, have a Ranger Powermax 140 Combination boiler with thermostat in the living room. I'm looking for a smart system to control the water as well or is it just best to do the heating? Also does the heating have to be on constant to be able to control the heating or use the programme settings for each On/Off settings then just use the smart system to control the temp?
It should be able to do that but contact their support team to verify
Hi - could you please clarify for me... It looks like this thermostat in your example can be either wired or wireless (battery powered) - is that right? If you go for wireless - is it true wirless...? i.e. You can put it wherever you like, no wires needed. Thanks
Yes its battery powered and you can put wherever you want.
@@GeekStreet Thank you!
@@djh_uk25 you're welcome!
Thank you for the excellent thorough video.
Are Tado still charging users £2.99/month to use geo locating?
Thanks, not sure if tado is still charging.
Top video, thanks Mate.
I have a boiler downstairs and an unvented-hot water tank on the top floor. There is a control box next to the hot water tank.
There is a wired thermostat in the downstairs hall-way(controls heating+hot water) and another wired thermostat in the master bedroom (controls heating only).
Could you comment on what parts from Tado I need to purchase ? (not planning on getting radiator thermostats for now....) - I think I need the internet bridge, extension kit - but I'm not sure if I need to get 2x Wired Thermostats (or) 2x Wireless Thermostats (or) 1xWired + 1xWireless Thermostat.
Thanks mate, best to contact their support team they are pretty good.
What I’d like to know is can one fit just the Tado TRVs the receiver ect and control the heating without a central thermostat, in much the same way as with the Honeywell Home system.
From what I recall you can
Hi so do you need nest aswel? Or just connect this kit without it ?
No the Nest is not needed.
Why have you left a live link in 1 hot water off ? This is for a Y plan only...Also sleeve the earth with brown if your using it as a signal ! The whole idea of moving the orange link is because the common is already live, you simply need a HW out on number three (if you have a cylinder) and a heating out on number 4 (cylinder or combi)
The wiring I used is what was recommended by Tado's team.
Great video
Thanks!
can somebody tell me what functionalities require that you pay every month and what functionalities are free ? thanks
Is this actually worth it? The system seems interesting at first but I've been reading a lot of negative reviews about it. Mainly stating that any support is non-existent and that there are a lot of connectivity problems, both hardware and software related.
Its a tough one in in terms of cost it comes really high but that more more to do with the smart thermostats. I didnt like the idea of having to change all those batteries every few years, but having said that it does provide better control over your radiators as it and more acturate temperature settings over a traditional thermostat. I'd definitely recommend giving it a go and if it doesn't work out just return it.
Very informative
Thanks for the comment much appreciated, don't forget to like and subscribe as it makes these videos possible.
If "okay" informs you a lot. I wonder if he ever counted the okays he said.
@@IXtremos666 How or why do you care if I found it informative, does it bother you that much. If so I suggest you get that looked into. Where toys not shared with you as a child? were you not loved, or do you just want to say something to stand out. Go somewhere else because no 1 wants you here.
@@grantc8353 dickwick
Trolling....nothing else to do...ok
For a newbie coming to this kind of thing, it seems like a hideous amount of setup involved and I don’t understand why you needed this anyway because you already have Nest? And how many AA batteries are you going to go through?
This was just for a review, I don't use myself.
Does it do intelligent heating? ie: If you set a temp of 20 degrees for 8am, our Netatmo system learns the heating "performance" of your house, and looks at the current temp of the house etc, and starts the heating appropriately early to get to 20 degrees at 8am. eg: eg: If it's particularly cold it might turn the heating on at 7am to get to 20 degrees for 8am.
It also takes into account thermal inertia, so if you set your temp to 20 degrees, and it's currently 18. It'll probably turn your heating off at something like 19.5, knowing that the heating will continue to warm the house up to 20... And likewise, it will then logically pulse the heating to keep it from dropping (much) below 20 degrees. In this way you don't get the typical fall and rise of the temp around a desired point. I can look at my temperature and it'll say sit around 19.9 and 20.1 for hours on end when set to keep the house at 20 degrees.
The phone interface of the Netatmo also great, with lifetime graphs of temperatures and heating.
The big downside of the Netatmo is its heating only. Not hot water :(
Yes you can set it to preheat so you will be at a certain temperature at a specific time.
@@GeekStreet Nice
Nice one, can I kindly know whether you are replacing nest external receiver with tado extension kit. if yes, is the nest being replaced by tado in this video. lil confused here due to nest external receiver in the video
Yes I replaced the Nest for the Tado in this review.
@@GeekStreet thanks for the reply. That's logical then. If I have existing nest 3rd generation in ground floor and hot water, I presume for first floor with TRV, We do not need extension kit to be replaced. Kindly advice.
Ground floor is hot water based under floor heating with nest 3rd generation thermostat.
I’ve got hive set up but the hive valves are a waste of money - totally utterly crap! Could I use tado valves only while I use the hive overall thermostat?
You could but it wouldn't make the most of the system.
@@GeekStreet thanks. What thermostat setup do you use?
@@TheArchitect101 i use the nest 🤣😂
Will it work with Worcester Bosch combi boilers
I'm not 100% sure but what you can do is sign up online like I showed in the video and pick your boiler and from that it can confirm if its compatible!
Nice one
Why batteries?? Doesn't it get juice from the wire?
Unfortunately not.
@@GeekStreet mmm 1-0 for Nest then...
@@czondag lol yeah for that one! But the combination of thermostat and trv's is awesome
@@GeekStreet yup, that's nice but i think honeywell does that also for years and has a big screen to adjust... for tado you need your mobile everytime?
@@czondag yes mobile or computer.
One thing i dont see on all these thermostats is a usage calculator, i should be able to put in my unit and standing charge to see how much i spend on heating. And if i want also set a budget.
Thanks for the comment, it's a very good point.
Can somebody help?
I want to control the pump from my heating system. I have now a room termostate in my living room, and when my living room is heated the termostatt ofcourse turns the pump off, and thats ok. But then i dont heave heating in other rooms because the pump is off.
If i install on every radiator a smart thermostate, and all rooms are at the givent temp. Will the pumo go off? And lets there is rom i want to be warmer, will the pump turns on only for that one room?
And lets say all thermo valves (all rooms) are heated will the pump go off the
I hope somebody understand my question and know the amsware.
Thank you all
Okay!?
Ok
Okay okay okay
ok
Titre en Français et il parle anglais, hein
What a lot of hassle for a thermostat there’s better and easier out there
