How to prevent radiator valves whistling?

Hi

Sometimes my radiators are wheezing (not just with the Tado smart valves, but the old manual ones too), I think when most of them are closed and a few ones are barely open.

this only happens when Tado sets them to 'barely open', in the past I've prevented this by either fully closing on having them on medium-high opening.

If it possible to set some kind of "minumum opening value" on the smart valves to prevent wheezing?

Or what other solutions do exist?

    The circulating pressure in your system may be too high, do you have one radiator without any sort of TRV ? If not you might need to consider fitting an automatic bypass valve to relieve pressure when all the TRVs are almost closed . . .
