Hi, I am looking to install a Tado X solution into my home which currently has an old 'non-smart' setup installed. I am wondering if my setup can be solution-ed with a Tado , and which devices are required. Current setup is….

Worcestor-Bosch greenstar boiler

System Hotwater tank

Old Drayton Heating and Hot water timing programmer

3 CH zones, each with wired thermostats zone valve

A wet underfloor heating zone, with its own thermostat and timer control

Any help appreciated in determining if it is possible to change what seems like (to an amatuer) quite a complicated setup!

    Questions.

    1. Which precise model of boiler? Greenstars, when digitally modulated tend to operate on EMS-BUS, which the X series doesnt handle. However the V3 series does handle it.
    2. is your house very large, any specific reason you want to use the X series?
    3. How many UFH thermostats do you have? Are there wiring centre dedicated to the UFH manifold(s)?
    4. How many non UFH wired thermostats do you have right now? Makes and models please. Are they all connected to two-port motorised zone valves?
    5. The HW storage tank.. does it have a dedicated zone valve? What is its thermostat make and model? There are a few out there which are EMS compatible.

    It is complicated to undertstand in the beginning but this doesnt have to be stressful. It may take a few exchanges here to work out the steps. You might also decided you will need a good electrician with central heating experience to work on the wiring, but thats not always necessary.

    Come back…
