tadoSmart AC Control with Stand - Digital Air Conditioner Control - Control Your Home Temperature From Anywhere Via App - Save Energy - Works With Alexa, Apple HomeKit, and Google Assistant

I put this in my self, of course I have sound logic I would think so if you don't then maybe don't attempt it. Otherwise it's fairly easy, just use your intuition and read the instructions they're not hard to follow either they give you plenty of help on the instructions.The device it's self is wireless and handy, comes with a bridge which tbh is a bit annoying wish it was standalone. I see people complain about how if power goes out etc, we'll if ur power goes out ur boiler turns off anyways.If your WiFi goes out, then you can go to the boiler and manually turn off heating / on from the tado control box in there or just on the boiler it's self. It's not hard, dry your tears and just go back to manual until ur wifi is up?The temprature control is easy, however it's not energy efficient until your purchase additional units for other rooms the radiator valves are on my list to get next I believe they will save on energy due to having the ability to control individual rooms.Even though when they're on sale, the new thermostats for the rads are a bit expensive sadly, hopefully in due time I can get some thought without breaking the bank too much.

Living in an old house with thick granite walls put me off investing in the original Tado system (V3+) however the Tado X system overcomes that with a newer communication protocol. I have an oil fired boiler with a gravity fed system/hot water cylinder and currently have 15 radiator smart thermostats installed plus the Bridge X and room temperature sensor and all communicating fine plus all linked with Alexa and the Echo Smart Home widget. Install and setup was a breeze (although if you're not comfortable with wires then best to get someone who is for the central heating controller although Tado does provide a step-by-step guide with pictures) as was linking with Alexa.Now, I have control over the house on a room-by-room schedule rather than previously where there was no control and the whole house was heated, very inefficient. I can now have the bedroom and en-suite warm for getting up without heating the whole house and set daily schedules for each room in the house depending on where we spend the most time. So far the house is certainly more comfortable and while I haven't had it long enough to estimate any savings in fuel oil consumption the boiler does appear to be running way less than previously which is a good sign.This will also control your hot water feed to the cylinder and includes similar schedules as the heating zones/rooms however I have this feature turned off at the moment as I'm controlling on an immersion heater and have plans to add some smart thermostat technology in that area as well that will tie in with the Tado control (although won't be fully integrated).In summary, brilliant system and time will tell over battery life/reliability etc but if the previous system is anything to go by then this shouldn't be a worry.One final point to note is that if you intend to configure within Alexa then you may need to upgrade your Echo devices to ensure that they support Matter (easily done, just search Amazon site for this information). Most do however worth checking.

The Tado° Smart Thermostat has been a game-changer for managing my home’s temperature. The setup was quick, and the app is intuitive, allowing me to control the heating and cooling from anywhere. I love the smart scheduling feature, which helps optimize energy use and saves money on bills.Integration with Alexa and Apple HomeKit works flawlessly, making it super convenient to adjust the temperature with voice commands. The geofencing feature is also a great addition—it automatically adjusts the temperature when I leave or return home, which is really efficient.The design is sleek and modern, and the stand makes it easy to place wherever needed. Overall, if you’re looking for a smart, energy-saving thermostat that’s easy to use and packed with features, this is a fantastic choice!
