measurement thermostat valve way off

Mrpinty

HI all

I have an issue with my measurement thermostat valve.

It seems that the reading of the temperature is always way off.

Yesterday I had to adjust to - 9 in the offset setting and it was still too high.

Do you have the same problem? it basically make the thermostat uselss.

Thanks

Hi Luca,

It is an issue that seems to affect TRVs in various degrees (vertically mounted thermostats more).

Some of the people in this community are hoping for an external temperature sensor that could be placed away from the radiator - please see (and vote up) https://community.tado.com/en-gb/discussion/459/launch-an-external-temperature-sensor-for-the-smart-radiator-thermostats#latest

Hi Andrei,

Thanks for your answer, after having read the comments in the forum I deducted that I have the worst situation, vertical TRV on top of the radiator.

Basically either I send the tado back to the store or I need to change the pipe valve.

No really smart from Tado to have created this issue to their clients.

Thanks again
Luca
