Tado...slow response,inefficiency of the system,no gain...
Hello! I have disconnected my tado V3+ cause to be honest i did not liked the way it worked,and to be more clear and on the matter of facts,i can tell you that after the instalation( bridge+ thermostat+ wireless receiver) and let the Tado to do his work i have discovered it is very annoying and frustrating to see the Tado how at 20.5C temperature set point it is starting only the boiler pump and circulate water for what reason dont understand when water is 25C and is heating nothing,it just waiste electricity for 2-3 hour till get to the 20.3C and only then at a low heat request acording to the app it just fire the boiler for 1-2 minutes then again let only the pump to run the water and not heat at all!!!
And maibe at 20.2 it starting very very slow to heat the water at 36 and after another 45 min it decided to go at 29 degree water temperature and finally after another 30 min it set to 20.5 and stopped....for 30 min and then again to start only the pump(due to low heat request on the app) and so go on again with the pump running for long times and not heating at all(25C water in the system heating what??) and again the same annoying routine especially at night when i hear that pump running for long periods of time. Would not be more simple to start at 0.2 under the set temp and off at 0.2 above the set point. For this reason i have decided to go back to my previous controller and maibe i will give another go with Tado if you improve the way it function and the waiste of energy of running pump for hours in the night is not going to be so frustrating.
My system is: Viesmann 100 35KW B1KC and i tried to use Tado as on-off with weather compensation and external sensor(N and Com conection for receiver,sensor external at 3-4 X21 bridge on boiler) and also connected on opentherm to see how it works. I have used - + on receiver and 1-2 connectors at X21 bridge inside boiler. The same thing happend in both operation sistems,low fire and long long response,pump running for hours. Now use different thermostat to work with Viessmann weather compensation build in software and external sensor....last day gas consumption drop with 30% but have to carefully choose the right shift and slope of the weather compensation to be efficient and keep the water for heat at max 55 C in order to condensate and be efficient. Miss the Tado app though...was nice but too expensive to have only an app from Tado. IS IN THE BOX NOW,FROM NOW AND THEN I WILL TEST IT TO SEE IF IS SAME OR NOT!
Thanks for listen and pacience to read this,hope for better. All the best for you all!
