If you live in a home without access to the boiler, you can install tado° Smart Radiator Thermostats X. They work with most thermostatic radiator valves, allowing you to control the temperature in each room.

For a more accurate temperature measurement, you can add Wireless Temperature Sensors X to your setup.

You can control these heating systems with one of the following setups:

1. Smart Radiator Thermostats are installed on all radiators in all commonly used rooms (recommended)

If you install Smart Radiator Thermostat X on all radiators in a room, they heat that room together. For a more accurate reading of the temperature, you can add a Wireless Temperature Sensor.

You’ll need the following tado° X devices:

  • 1x Starter Kit - Smart Radiator Thermostat X (includes Smart Radiator Thermostat X and Bridge X)

  • Smart Radiator Thermostats X for every room

  • (optional) Wireless Temperature Sensor X for a more accurate measurement of the room temperature

2. Smart Radiator Thermostats are installed on some radiators in the rooms

You can install Smart Radiator Thermostats X only on some radiators in a room. In this case, you have to control the remaining conventional ones manually. We recommend that you set these to frost protection to allow tado° to accurately heat the room.

You’ll need the following tado° X devices:

  • 1x Starter Kit - Smart Radiator Thermostat X (includes Smart Radiator Thermostat X and Bridge X)

  • Smart Radiator Thermostats X for the radiators in the other rooms

  • (optional) Wireless Temperature Sensor X for a more accurate reading of the temperature
