Home Assistant's built-in Tado integration compared with Tado CE. Both have climate, AC and hot water control, a hot water timer, presence and geofencing, and weather data. Only Tado CE has HomeKit local control, multi-home support, Smart Valve Control, Weather Compensation, Actionable Insights, thermal analytics, mould-risk monitoring and a schedule calendar entity. Adaptive polling and Heating Circuit Control exist in both, with different depth. Neither supports the Tado X series.

Which devices work with local HomeKit control. At home, Home Assistant talks to the Internet Bridge V3 or V3+ over HomeKit on your LAN, and the bridge reaches the Smart Thermostat V3 or V3+ and the Smart Radiator Thermostat. The Smart AC Control V3 or V3+ (its own HomeKit pairing is not supported yet), the Wireless Temperature Sensor and a Smart Thermostat V2 with a V2 bridge work only through the Tado cloud. Tado X is not supported.

Quick start: install via HACS, add and authenticate, verify, enable HomeKit local control on the Internet Bridge V3 or V3+ (recommended), configure.

About

Tado CE is a community-built Tado integration that adds local HomeKit control, multi-home support and Smart Valve Control. It is developed independently of Tado and works with V2, V3 and V3+ hardware, while it still needs Tado's cloud for part of its data. With an Internet Bridge paired over HomeKit, room and target temperatures are read locally, which reduces use of Tado's daily API quota. Smart Valve Control uses an external sensor to correct radiator valve readings, either by syncing a temperature offset or by overriding the valve setpoint. Weather Compensation adjusts boiler flow temperature to outdoor conditions and needs the bridge credentials. It also provides a schedule calendar, mold risk and comfort sensors, thermal analytics, and actions for timers, open window handling and meter readings.

After setup

Home Presence (Home/Away)Sync your home's overall presence (Home/Away). About 1 API call each refresh. Refresh interval configurable in Advanced Settings → Polling & API.
Weather DataOutside temperature and solar intensity from Tado. About 1 API call each refresh. Refresh interval configurable in Advanced Settings → Polling & API.
Mobile Device TrackingTrack each phone's location for per-device presence. Updates on HA restart only. To refresh in the background, turn this on, save, then enable Frequent Mobile Sync in Advanced Settings → Polling & API.
Schedule CalendarSee your Tado heating schedules as calendar entries in HA
Device Temperature OffsetsShow the temperature calibration offset that appears in the Tado app on climate entities (+1 API call per device on restart)
Heating Circuit ControlAssign each heating zone to a boiler circuit, or to none so its valves still open for residual heat without firing the boiler. Needs a bridge with boiler circuits. Refreshes on the normal sync cadence, not instantly.
Internet BridgeConnect to your Tado Internet Bridge for boiler flow temperature readings (required for Weather Compensation)
Local Control (HomeKit)Control heating locally via HomeKit, even when Tado's cloud is down
Smart ComfortComfort scoring, mold risk, condensation, and dew point sensors for each zone
Thermal AnalyticsTrack how fast your rooms heat up and how your system performs over time
Adaptive PreheatAutomatically start heating early so your room is warm when the schedule kicks in. Replaces Tado's Early Start with local logic
Weather CompensationNeeds the Internet Bridge enabled first. Automatically adjusts your boiler's flow temperature based on the outdoor weather.
Per-Zone ConfigurationCustomise sensors, manual overrides, and heating per zone
Smart Comfort ModeHow much Tado CE nudges zone target temperature toward comfort. Light = subtle, Aggressive = noticeable. Start with Light.

Window TypeYour window type. Affects how surface temperature is estimated for mold risk
Temperature History (days)How many days of temperature data to use for heating rate estimates (1–30)
Thermal Analytics ZonesChoose which zones show thermal analytics sensors (leave empty for all zones)
Heating Cycle History (days)How many days of heating cycle data to keep (1–30)
Minimum Heating CyclesWait for this many completed cycles before showing results (1–10)
Inertia Threshold (°C)Temperature change below this is considered 'settled' after heating stops (0.05–0.5°C)
Bridge Serial NumberPrinted on the bottom of your bridge (starts with IB, e.g. IB0123456789)
Bridge Auth Code4-digit code from the sticker on your bridge (keep confidential)
Heating System TypeCustom lets you set your own slope; the other options calculate it automatically from your Max/Min Flow, Shutoff and Design Outdoor Temp fields above.
Heating Curve SlopeHow steeply flow temperature rises as it gets colder outside. Higher = more aggressive heating (0.3–3.0). Only used when the heating system preset above is Custom; otherwise it's calculated from your Max/Min Flow, Shutoff and Design Outdoor Temp values.
Design Outdoor TemperatureThe coldest temperature you expect in your area (-30 to 10°C)
Maximum Flow TemperatureHighest flow temperature your boiler should reach at the coldest outdoor temp (25–80°C). Feeds the automatic slope calculation unless the preset above is Custom.
Minimum Flow TemperatureLowest flow temperature, also used when heating shuts off (25–60°C). Feeds the automatic slope calculation unless the preset above is Custom.
Serial NumberStarts with IB (e.g. IB0123456789)

Window Detection ModeActive: detects only when HVAC is running. Passive: detects regardless of HVAC state. Auto: uses Active when HVAC is on, Passive when off.
Window Detection SensitivityHow easily the window detection triggers. Higher sensitivity = more false positives but catches smaller drafts.
Override Tado's Temperature SensorTurn off to temporarily revert to Tado's built-in sensor. Your selection stays saved, so you can toggle back on anytime.
External Temperature SensorSelect a sensor to override Tado's built-in reading. Disable the toggle above to pause without losing the selection.
Override Tado's Humidity SensorTurn off to temporarily revert to Tado's built-in humidity sensor. Your selection stays saved, so you can toggle back on anytime.
External Humidity SensorSelect a humidity sensor to override Tado's built-in reading. Disable the toggle above to pause without losing the selection.
Smart Valve Control ModeUse your external sensor to improve TRV accuracy. Offset Sync (recommended) quietly corrects the TRV's temperature reading. It works alongside Tado, with better TRV battery life. Valve Target directly overrides the TRV setpoint. It is more aggressive, so use it only when Offset Sync isn't enough.
Offset Sync SensitivityHow much the offset must change before writing to the TRV. Higher values mean fewer writes (better for battery life) but less precise temperature display in the Tado app
Override behaviourHow long a temperature change from HA, the Tado app or a service call lasts before Tado’s schedule resumes.
Override Timer Duration (minutes)Duration for Timer override mode (15 min to 12 hours)

Actions

Set Climate TimerSet heating/cooling with a timer that automatically ends after the specified duration, or until the next schedule block. Compatible with the built-in Tado integration.Fields: Temperature, Time Period, Overlay Type
Set Schedule TemperatureSet a zone's target temperature from an automation, such as a holiday calendar, without Smart Valve Control treating it as a manual override. Smart Valve Control keeps working towards this target and resumes your normal schedule at the next block change.Fields: Temperature, Overlay Type, Force override
Set Water Heater TimerTurn on hot water with a timer and optional temperature setting.Fields: Time Period, Temperature
Resume ScheduleDelete any manual override and return to the automatic schedule.
Set Climate Temperature OffsetSet the temperature offset (calibration) for a Tado climate device. Compatible with the built-in Tado integration.Fields: Entity, Offset
Add Meter ReadingAdd an energy meter reading for Energy IQ. Supports specifying the date for historical readings (Tado CE enhancement).Fields: Reading, Date
Identify DeviceMake a Tado device flash its LED to help identify it.Fields: Device Serial
Set Away ConfigurationConfigure what temperature to use when everyone is away from home.Fields: Entity, Mode, Temperature, Comfort Level
Get Temperature OffsetFetch the current temperature offset (calibration) for a Tado climate device. Returns the offset value for use in automations.Fields: Entity
Activate Open Window (Auto-Assist)Confirm an open window that Tado has already detected, same as tapping the icon in the Tado app. Only works when Tado's built-in detection has flagged an open window event. For triggering open window mode from external sensors, use 'Set Open Window Mode' instead.
Deactivate Open WindowCancel an open window that Tado detected itself, or one you confirmed with 'Activate Open Window', and resume normal heating/cooling. This does not clear 'Set Open Window Mode'. That mode writes a frost overlay, so clear it with 'Resume Schedule' or 'Restore Previous State' instead.
Set Open Window ModeTrigger open window mode from external sensors (Zigbee, Z-Wave contact sensors, etc.). Sets the zone to frost protection temperature, with no Tado detection required. Duration defaults to the zone's Open Window Detection timeout setting, or 15 minutes if not configured.Fields: Duration, Capture State
Restore Previous StateRestore a zone to its state before the last overlay operation. If no captured state exists, falls back to resuming the schedule.
Turn Off All RoomsPlace every climate zone (heating + AC) into a manual OFF overlay. Mirrors the Tado app's 'Turn OFF all rooms' button. Schedules stay suppressed until you manually resume each zone.
RefreshForce an immediate fetch of presence data, bypassing the minimum refresh interval. For users driving their own refresh cadence from an automation; the automatic polling floor still protects your API quota the rest of the time.Fields: Data to refresh

From the README

Tado CE reads your Tado heating locally over HomeKit, saves your daily API calls, and adds what the built-in Home Assistant integration doesn't have: multi-home, Smart Valve Control and Weather Compensation.
Offset Sync (recommended): writes a device temperature offset so Tado's own heating algorithm sees your external sensor's reading. Tado then modulates as normal.
Valve Target (advanced): overrides the TRV setpoint directly. Use when Offset Sync's ±10 °C range isn't enough.
