Open valve

rctneil

Hi,

I love my Tado valves but there are times when i want to be able to do the following:

Set living room radiator valve to 20C, While the living room is getting to temperature, open the valve fully on the radiator in the bedroom. Don't set a setpoint temperature, just open the valve so that room heats up at the same time as the living room. Ignore it's temperature and go on with life.

Basically, is there a way to just tell a valve to manually fully open and to not call for heat, just effectively heat up when other valves call for heat. Just a simple "Open" or "Closed" toggle for each valve. It still continues to report the temperatures etc but doesn't call for heat or turn on or off the system.

Currently i've removed the valve from the radiator so this situation works, but having a way to acheive this without manually removing the valve would be much more useful!

Yes, set it to “independent.”
