About this product
The tado° Smart Radiator Thermostat 3-Pack offers a flexible approach to managing your home’s heating. Designed in Germany and already used by millions across Europe, this system allows you to control multiple radiators and rooms individually, maximizing energy savings and comfort. It is ideal for homeowners seeking improved temperature management and reduced energy bills, particularly those with multi-zone heating systems or who want to optimise their routines.
This add-on kit expands the functionality of your existing tado° Starter Kit (V2, V3, V3+), which must be purchased separately. Each Smart Radiator Thermostat replaces your current TRV head and can be mounted vertically or horizontally. The pack includes six adapters to ensure compatibility with a wide range of radiator brands, alongside six AA batteries for operation.
Installation is designed to be straightforward, guided by instructions within the app. A metal nut provides a secure hold, minimising the risk of leakage during installation. Features include Advanced Geofencing, Weather adaptation, statistics, an energy savings report, and multi-room control – though additional smart radiator thermostats are required to fully utilise this capability.
Connectivity is achieved via WLAN (via Bridge) utilising 868 MHz technology, and it offers button control alongside app control. The thermostat utilises a DC 24 Volt power source and features an LED display with backlight. It’s compatible with Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, Apple Home, and the tado° App.
