FAQs

Does the Hive Smart Radiator Valve work with any radiator?

It is compatible with radiators that have standard TRV (Thermostatic Radiator Valve) bodies. Adapters are included to fit most common valve types.

Do I need a Hive Active Heating thermostat to use the radiator valve?

No, you can use the radiator valve independently. However, some advanced features, such as overriding the main thermostat, may not be available without Hive Active Heating.

How long do the batteries last?

Battery life varies depending on usage, but typically, the AA batteries should last for several months.

Can I control the radiator valve remotely?

Yes, you can control the valve remotely through the Hive app on your smartphone or tablet.

What happens if I lose my internet connection?

The radiator valve will continue to operate based on the last set schedule and temperature settings. Remote control will be unavailable until the connection is restored.

Is the installation difficult?

Installation is designed to be easy, typically taking just a few minutes, provided your radiators have compatible TRV bodies.

Can I set different schedules for different rooms?

Yes, the Hive app allows you to create customized schedules for each room where you have a Hive Smart Radiator Valve installed.

Where can I find the Hive app?

The Hive app is available for download on both the Apple App Store (iOS) and the Google Play Store (Android).

Troubleshooting

Check the battery, ensure the valve is within range of the Hive Hub, and restart the valve and the Hub.

App not connecting

Check your internet connection, ensure the Hive Hub is online, and try restarting the app or your mobile device.
