Hi, I am looking for an adapter to connect Eve Thermo to Danfoss RDR vent. Do you know what adapter shoul I look for? Thank you. Petr- Reply
Hello, we have 3 different sign types at our heating pipelines. 1st: “pi”-like symbol, F OV; 2nd: DN10; 3rd: DN15. Current thermoheads are Oventrop at all of them. Is it possible to know what adapters (if any) should I use to mount the Eve Thermo? Thank You very much!- Reply
Hello filip! It depends as ther are different valve types used by Oventrop. The new ones are M30x1,5, not needing an adapter. Older M30x1,5 fit but are not ready for thermostats with a motor. And a third group is M30x1,0 that always needs an adapter. You may need to ask a pro (plumber) . Best regards, Volker- Reply
Thanks, Volker. Can You tell me how do I identify the vent isn’t ready for motorized thermostat? Can I measure there some proportions to recognize current valve type and find the right adapter without hiring a plumber?- Reply
Hello Filip! The ones I know of (I have two in my own flat) Eve Thermo fits (M30x1,5) but can't be fastened. Best regards, Volker- Reply
Hello, I just would like to offer a solution for Oventrop 30x1,5 ventil owners which cannot tighten Eve Thermo at it (after fastening still loose). I developed a working adapter to be easily 3D printed and inserted between the thermo head and ventil. No problem to provide the 3D model via e-mail for those who are interested.- Reply
I have used Danfoss Living Connect thermostats and is now moving to Eve Thermo. For my radiators, I used this adapter: https://www.vvsobadrum.se/reservdelar/reservdelar-radiatorer/danfoss/danfoss-overgang-mma-m28-till-living-termostat. It's a M28 to M30 adapter. Will this work for Eve Thermo as well? I am concerned because when installed and calibrated, the radiators are way too warm, so my feeling is that it can't properly closde it. Do I need another adapter?- Reply
Hello Jonas! This may be ok, if the valve is an MMA, this is what the link says. These are the links I have for MMAMarkaryd (MMA) Adapter M28,5x1,5 to M30x1,5

Hello Daniel! It is really hard only looking a valve photos. We have +70 valve types in Europe. The one in the link is not an adapter as far as I can see. What is the manufacturer printed on the old, manual thermostat. Best, Volker- Reply
Hi - I have just bought an Eve thermo to try out (I have 8 radiators waiting) and I have determined that my valve is a Danfoss RA. However, the adapter will not really fasten (even when I tighten the screw really really hard, the adapter can stil rotate and be taken off by hand. If I fasten the Eve Thermo onto the adapter, when Calibrating and just get an Error saying calibration failed . I can hear the Eve Thermo working when calibrating, first for a time, then pause, then failure notification and the it retracts I can hear.What to do to debug the installation?

Hello Gianni! I already answered your same question in Amazon Answers and in our support system. Please stick with one and don't double post. Thank you.Eve Thermo comes with the standard M30x1,5 connector and adapters for Danfoss RA, RAV and RAVL. Giacomini needs an adapter:

Hello,I got Eve Thermo for Christmas (yay!) but none of the adaptors fit my valve - I have uploaded an image here https://imgur.com/sIhBtMx
It's old, but not on/off valve as it has a valve now that I can set from off all the way to 5, so I am hopeful an adaptor might be available for this?

Hi, I've just fitted a new Eve Thermo to a radiator that previously had a Myson TRV 2 way. It fitted OK and calibrated. However the radiator is on heating up although the Eve temperature is set at 14.5 C and the room temperature is 21 C. Do I need to do something else. I am wondering whether the Eve plunger is touching the valve pin?- Reply
Hello Philipp, after adding and calibrating in Eve the basic setup has to be done:How to set up Eve Thermo including the Offset
Important note: The temperature displayed below Target Temperature in Eve is measured by Eve Thermo way too close to the heater, please ignore it. Once an Offset is set, it will not be integrated here.
To set up Eve Thermo open the app Eve and goto
Settings > Accessories > Eve Thermo
Set Temperature Offset to 0 degrees.
Then in Eve goto Rooms > Eve Thermo and open Eve Thermo.
Set Target Temperature to 23 degrees for example and let it heat for 2-3 hours.
Then measure the temperature in the middle of the room with a thermometer, Eve Degree or Eve Room.
If it reads for example 20,5 degrees, goto
Settings > Accessories > Eve Thermo and set the Temperature Offset to -2,5 degrees.
You may have to adjust this over the next days a bit.
As stated before, the Temperature Offset is not taken into account in the temperature shown below Target Temperature.
Best regards, Volker

Hello, I'm planning on fitting the Eve Thermo to another radiator and it has 1/2 written on it and also F-8164. I can't tell what company the valve is from but the logo looks like the pi symbol. Which adapter would I need for such a radiator please? Thank you, David- Reply
Hello David! In case this is an on/off valve as the other you have, it needs to be replaced by a plumper. We recommend betting ist replaced with a valve that hast the standard connector M30x1.5. Best regards, Volker- Reply
Hi Volker, I had a plumber come today to look at my radiators. He said he could change the joints for me to M30x1.5 but he said it wasn't guaranteed that the Eve Thermos will work with the radiators even after that. I don't know why he said that, he didn't seem to be a fan of smart thermostats. I'm not sure if he had encountered Eve Thermos before.Is there any reason why the Eve Thermo wouldn't work well with our radiators after we change the joints to M30x1.5? Our heating here is collective, so the water is the same temperature for all of the building (apartment block). I think the thing that controls the temperature is the amount the water that flows through the radiator, and that's controlled via the screw tap on each radiator. Thank you, David

Hello David, as most modern thermostats als almost all smart thermostats use M30x1,5 valves it is a clever move to get tehm replaced. Best regards, Volker- Reply
Hello, I have a radiator valve with "SAR 1/2" written on it. I understand this radiator company is old and now Euromap Comap now makes the valves for it.Here are two photos of the valve, one of the photos has a small metal adapter that I currently have on the radiator. I'm not sure of it's function but I can take it off:
https://imgur.com/a/cUPWZYq
There are two threads. The largest screw thread is 29mm and the smallest thread is 19mm. The distance between the end of the largest thread and the tip of the valve is about 3cm. The nut on the metal adapter I removed in one of the photos is 2cm in diameter. I measured all of that myself so it might be a millimetre or so off.
If you know what I need to get to fit the Eve Thermo on I'd appreciate the info! And also, in my photos you see the valve I've got. Do I need to take that off at all? Or does the adapter I will buy just fit on top of that?
Thank you, David

Hello David! Thanks for the photo. You need to get the valve replaced with one suitable for Thermostats. The one you have is not it is just an on/off wheel. Best regards, Volker- Reply

Hello,I just bought 4 Eve Thermo (Second generation) and tried to install them on my heaters. I am using a M30x1 to M30x1.5 adapter from Oventrop (bought on Amazon.de, metal version, should be the first listing at the top).
Eve Thermo starts calibrating, you can hear the valve opening and closing but it always fails at about 75% of the progress bar giving me a „general installation error“. Resetting did not help either.
Any ideas that could get these things running? I can provide pictures of my heater when needed.

I have bought 6 eve thermo. We replaced piping and valves for our house. Brand new valves are danfoas RA-N models. I get constant E1 calibration error. I tested these before piping work, we had danfoss ravl valves and only one radiator I was able to calibrate thermo at that time, didnt spend much time thinking this as new valves were coming. But now still e1 error from multiplw valves and thermos.- Reply
Hello Tero!For a RA-N valve you need a special adapter to M30x1,5. No way using the provided ones, they are only for Danfoss RA, RAV and RAVL.

I had Eve thermo working last year, now the batteries were dead so I replaced them. Now it will not calibrate anymore...What to do?
- Reply
Hello Mark,Please try the following step-by-step procedure including the trick with the 2 cent coin. We have recently learned that around 10% of the valves used in Germany have a slightly too small stroke, the coin compensates for this.
1. Delete Eve Thermo from Eve app
2. Un-mount Eve Thermo and make sure that you can move the valve on heater side (if not use grease and eventually hit the valve's body with a hammer to solve the problem)
3. Put new batteries in Eve Thermo ("Er" means either calibration problem or discharged batteries)
4. Press one of the arrow on screen until "Er" disappears (the screen will then show "no", which means "mounting" and the valve will move to a correct mounting position)
5. Hard reset Eve Thermo until the 66/99 appears on the LED.
6. Re-pair Eve Thermo in Eve app and follow instructions to mount it and calibrate it.
7. Insert a 2 cent coin into the valve holder of Eve Thermo.
8. Follow the assembly and calibration instructions.
If the code ER does not appear on the display of the Eve Thermo during step 4, please skip this step.

Hello Argo!Depends on the valve the heater is using. Most customers search at Amazon or other places. You need to search for M30x1,5 and the valve name you have. Best regards, volker
