Energy Savings Report - Open Window Stats

I am finding the report quite confusing and not easy to understand ( ͡° ʖ̯ ͡°)

Open Window Detection is permanently disabled.

    When I installed Tado last October I put blind faith in the figures and signed up for a year of the Assist package. I've since come to realise what a load of baloney most of the numbers are. I pay no attention to the energy saving report. It's all smoke and mirrors. Open window detection is without doubt faulty - it can be triggered simply by walking past a sensor - and I really don't care what the stats from Tado say. In fact, just yesterday I cancelled auto renewal of the Assist package. I won't be needing it.

    I prefer to review my energy saving performance based on consumption data from my supplier. Here are my March figures compared to last year....

    Now that's what I call energy saving. But how much is down to Tado, how much is down to the weather, how much is down to new double and triple glazing and new external doors and how much is down to replacing defective 33 year old TRVs with shiny new ones? Oh, and how much is down to me learning the importance of balancing the system and keeping boiler return temperatures as low as possible?

    @rafm5 whilst I agree with the other comments above that most of what is reported is nonsense, and nothing better than guesswork, to answer your original point about the open window detection:

    When you disabled open window detection, you simply told your tado system not to react when it thinks it detected an open window. It does however still detect them, as the algorithm is still running, hence why it is able to produce that somewhat meaningless statistic...

    They focus a lot on features that impress the casual person intending to buy a system and not so much on the features people find out they need after they have installed it. Apparently optimized on sales, not on customer satisfaction.
