Our pick: Aqara W600 Smart Radiator Thermostat
The W600 replaces the control head on a compatible thermostatic radiator valve, giving you app-based temperature control and schedules for individual rooms. It is a good fit for people who want to heat the rooms they are actually using instead of treating the whole house as one zone.
- Room-by-room heating control
- Schedules and temperature adjustments from your smart-home setup
- Works within the Aqara ecosystem and supports modern smart-home connectivity
- A useful winter upgrade without replacing the entire heating system
Need a hub? Add the Aqara M100
If you do not already have a suitable Aqara hub, the compact M100 is the companion product we would look at. It gives the W600 and other compatible Aqara devices a central connection point and also makes sense if you plan to add more sensors or smart-home devices later.
Who should consider the pair?
This combination makes the most sense if you are starting an Aqara heating setup from scratch. You can begin with one W600 and the M100, then add more radiator thermostats room by room rather than buying everything at once.
If you already own a compatible Aqara hub, you may only need the W600. Before ordering, check that your radiator valve is compatible and whether an adaptor is required for your particular valve body.
Why we like it for autumn
Smart radiator controls are one of those upgrades that become far more useful as the heating season starts. The appeal here is not flashy automation for its own sake: it is having finer control over when individual rooms are heated, with a setup you can expand gradually.
