Doesnt this mess with Tado’s PID? is the algoritme still maintaint
Almost a year since @Xitee shared his solution and we are amidst the heating season. I tried out the proposed solution, but find my valves non-responsive.
I am trying to debug, but it seems that ever since implementing the proxy-thermostat the Tado valve doens’t respond or react to the service-calls anymore. So I am thinking:
- Is there a limit to API-calls?
- Is @Xitee’s based on using the home-kit integration instead of the regular Tado-integration?
- Has the API changed over the past year?
Is this solution still working for ya’ll?
I’m using the homekit integration with local control. A few months back I bought a eurotronic thermostat that has a direct valve control and replaced the tado with it.
But since my Tado didn’t have have internet access it should still work.
Thanks for your prompt reply. I am afraid I can’t switch to the homekit integration, as I also use the main thermostat (not the valve) for the entire house.
Thank you, I going to give a try.
What do you think about Better Thermostat from HACS? Have you tried?
Hey, I’m about to get in the same boat here, just fitted my house with TRVs in almost all radiators and realized the temps are way off. I haven’t tried the offset adjustment automations but I think they wouldn’t work for me due to the constant noise nuisance. Where are you at with this now, did you switch to using the homekit integration? I wonder if one could use homekit to control some TRVs while at the same time keep using the cloud integration for the living room where I have a tado thermostat, plus keep my home/away and window detection automations working.
I just ended up buying separate Tado thermostats for most of my rooms, picking them up cheap when there were offers or on eBay.
None of the offset approaches worked smoothly or reliably enough.
I’ve worked my way through this with a blueprint and some SNZB-02D sensors. I now have a light, yet powerful way to manage offsets for my valves without spending too much for a single thermometer from Tado. Offset script will kick in only when a certain difference of temperature is registered between the valve and the zigbee thermometer.
Can you share your code as that sounds ideal for what i need
Here you can use my blueprint!
Thanks for your generosity @dllfpp … I have added your blueprint and created an automation, but it doesn’t seem to be adjusting the offset. There are no faults in the trace… can you assist me with this at all? thanks
