tado Wireless Smart Thermostat X

tado° Wireless Smart Thermostat X – Starter Kit

A smart thermostat that replaces your boiler's manual controls, letting you manage heating and hot water from your phone, voice assistant, or the thermostat itself. This is tado's wireless "X" range — the newer generation, not compatible with older tado V3+ kit.

Key features:

  • App, voice & on-device control — works with Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple Home

  • Boiler & hot water control — schedules and adjusts both heating and hot water, works with most Relay or OpenTherm boiler systems

  • Wireless setup — no wiring into your boiler needed; connects via the included Wireless Receiver, which acts as a Thread Border Router (no separate Bridge required, despite "Bridge X" in some listing names)

  • Room-by-room precision — reaches target temperature within 0.5°C

  • Self-guided app installation — step-by-step setup, no engineer needed for most homes

  • Runs on 3x AAA batteries in the thermostat unit, with low-battery alerts

Good to know before buying:

  • Not compatible with tado° V3+ — if you already own older tado kit, you'll need V3+ add-ons instead, not this

  • Requires iOS 16.4+ or Android 9.0+ to install and run the app

  • Suitable for wet areas (e.g. bathrooms), useful if you're mounting near a shower room

  • Comes with a 30-day right of return and a 2-year Premium Direct-Service Warranty

  • If you have a larger home, you can add an extra Bridge X as a signal booster (roughly one per 100m²) — not included by default

Best for anyone starting fresh with smart heating who wants boiler and hot water control without hardwiring, plus flexible voice/app control. If you're expanding an existing tado V3+ system, this isn't the right kit. Check tado's V3+ add-ons instead.
