tado° Installation Cost in London: What Changes the Price

• Wired thermostat or receiver: swapping a wall thermostat on the same cable is quicker than replacing a programmer
• Hot water: a cylinder system means S-plan or Y-plan wiring and testing both heating and hot water
• Old controls to take out of the circuit: an old wired thermostat or wireless receiver bridged out at the wall
• Radiator thermostats: priced on the number of radiators, and on any valves that need adapters
• Zones: each extra thermostat or receiver is another device to fit and pair
• A Bridge X or second bridge for a large home or thick walls

• tado° says it does not cover installation costs, including where a compatible boiler turns out to need rewiring
• If you return tado° devices within its 30-day window, tado° says the refund does not include the cost of professional installation

A vetted pro prices your job from photos of the boiler, your existing controls and the tado° kit, and the JACK app shows you that fixed price before you book.

What is on your wall now decides the job. A wired thermostat swapped for a Smart Thermostat X on the same cable is the simplest. A receiver in place of a heating and hot water programmer, an old wireless thermostat and its receiver to take out of the circuit, or a home split into zones takes longer. A Smart Radiator Thermostat is simple on its own, so a house full of them is priced on the number of radiators and the valves they sit on.

Every device goes on one booking for one price: the thermostat or receiver, a Bridge X if your kit needs one, and radiator thermostats for each room. Other jobs, such as a smart doorbell, can go on the same visit. Where parking has to be paid for, it is added at cost and agreed before you book.

Prefer to pay for the pro's time? Hourly hire works too: as a guide, smart home installation is typically £45–£95 per hour.
