[Released with tado° X] Make the Smart Radiator Valves quieter
Comments

@Rob I am also interested to get an update on this. I love my tado system but I cannot put valves in my bedrooms due to noise. Have you thought about surveying users to ask them how many more TRVs they would purchase if there was a quiet mode. In my case 5 more. You might find the business case very positive for a small development cost.

I think you’re being very optimistic in expecting an outcome just three months later, given Tado’s glacial development pace on everything else.0

Has anyone tried what David suggested and fitted U pieces between bracket and radiator, in my case it's definitely radiator amplifying the noise of TRV. I don't want to go through hassle of taking rad off if doesn't resolve noise issue significantly.0

I would absolutely pay extra for a premium radiator valve which I could set to run quieter.
In the meantime I'm going to try out some of the suggestions in this thread and report back.

I may be missing something here, couldn't you just leave wax based TRVs in the bedrooms, and have the boiler switch on using timer in IFTTT or something?1

My TRVs are definitely loud, and I have plastic pipe through my house so it’s certainly not ‘amplified’ any more than is fundamentally unavoidable.
I would certainly rather have my valves step change much slower if it means they would be quieter, slower the better0 -
I should have done some more research before wildly installing Tado everywhere this summer. I can hear the valves move throughout the house when all is quiet at night :(0

Hello @14spc
tado° X thermostats are substantially less loud than V3+.
Customers have been very happy with this change, describing it as one of the best aspects of the new hardware.
Unfortunately, there is not much than can be done with V3+ Smart Radiator Thermostats in terms of noise.0
