Nest compatible trv

Would you have any recommendations of smart thermostatic radiator valve TRV? Preferably to work over wifi or zigbee. My plan is to nest compatible trv have separate temperature sensors, one in each room, nest compatible trv, so not to rely on the TRV sensor which would be too close to the heat sourcelike the Aqara temperature and humidity sensor, and to keep the Nest as the thermostat and boiler controller. Hi asanseau, I have the same infrastructure with same question.

There are a lot of messages in this forum from people looking for proper integration between any brand of smart TRV and Nest, not just compatibility but integration. Integration means that the TRV can tell Nest that it needs more heat from the boiler. Of course any TRV can control the radiator but whether any heat is available depends on the boiler controller e. Without integration then I am forced to set the Nest too high and let the Smart TRVs control the temperature in each room, which neatly defeats the ability of Nest to use boiler modulation to ovoid overshoot. Given that Hive can do this, I'm now exploring to see if it can also do boiler modulation. Come on Google.

The previous owners had a Nest system installed that had several Nest thermostats in various rooms around the house, but they took all but one of them when they left, so there is only one left which is currently in the living room. We're looking for ways to reduce the energy he's using, so I considered getting smart TRVs on each radiator. Unfortunately it doesn't appear that Nest TRVs can control the boiler So, for example, when the living room is warm enough, because it has been heated throughout the day and he wants to heat the bedroom just before hitting the sack, or just before getting up, the Nest TRV can't turn the boiler on by itself. If this is how Google designed it, then shame on them. If there is a way of getting a smart TRV to be able to turn on the boiler without the agreement of the Nest controller, please let me know. Many thanks in advance for advice. You would need Tado, Evohome or Wiser to do that.

I have been doing more research since posting the original question, and perhaps you could provide a more helpful answer, to you and also to me, that perhaps micro zoning using sTRVs is not going to reduce the heating bills, but correctly modulating the boiler, which only Nest currently supports out of the current selection of Smart Thermostats, definitely will. It does uses batteries but how long will they last depends on how many times per day smart trv is opening and closing valves.
