My setup is as follows:

Wireless Receiver

4 x Smart Rad Valves Basic (STRV)

1 x Wireless Temperature Sensor (WTS)

I only wish to heat the rooms I am using often. The question: What does the Wireless Temperature Sensor do?

Where should I put the WTS (no inappropriate answers please)?

If I place it in a room with a STRV, which takes precedence?

Do I need it at all?

I would appreciate any ideas, thank you

    It can provide a more accurate temp reading than a trv, especially in a room with multiple trvs are ones that are hidden behind furniture. You can set any Tado device to be the measuring device but usually people use the wireless temp sensor for the above reason.

    Place it somewhere in a room away from, radiators, direct sunlight and draughts and it should be reasonably accurate.
