Netatmo ORIGINAL Valves: Zigbee + Matter Thermo Hub Oct 2026

Netatmo finally finished the new heating ecosystem. Covered on October 2, 2026 by Maison et Domotique and Netatmo’s own ORIGINAL pages, the brand adds room-by-room control on a clean Zigbee + Matter architecture.

Hardware

• Smart Radiator Valve ORIGINAL — €59.99; open-window detect, child lock, anti-seize, ~18-month battery claim; up to 24 valves per install; six adapters in box
• Thermo Hub — mains Zigbee gateway; Matter-certified bridge (valves/thermostats stay Zigbee; hub exposes Matter)
• Wired Thermostat ORIGINAL pack + hub €139.99; wireless pack €149.99; apartment valve+hub pack €119.99
• Additional Thermostat €99.99 for multi-circuit homes; Zigbee repeater €19.99

Control moves to Legrand/Netatmo Home + Control (Energy app sunset for this range), with Arrive/Leave scenes that can also drive lights and blinds.

Compatibility break

Older Netatmo Energy valves used a proprietary radio. ORIGINAL is Zigbee-only—you cannot mix generations. Netatmo says the prior range stays supported; migrating means replacing thermostat, gateway, and valves.

Rocks take

Matter via hub is the right pattern for Home Assistant / Apple Home buyers, but the migration tax is real. Vendor €250/year savings claim is from a 2023 user study—treat as marketing, not a promise. Sources: Maison et Domotique; Netatmo product blog.

Apartment and multi-zone setups

For communal heating apartments, Netatmo lets you skip the ORIGINAL Thermostat and pair radiator valves directly with a Thermo Hub pack (€119.99). Multi-circuit houses can add Additional Thermostats (€99.99) so ground floor and upstairs run independent schedules. Accessories include table stand, wall plate, USB-C continuous power module, Thermo Link wireless boiler receiver (€39.99), and a Zigbee repeater—useful because battery valves do not route the mesh.

French energy-code timing toward room-or-zone automatic controls (deadline discussed toward 2030 for covered existing buildings) is part of Netatmo’s pitch; the €250/year savings figure cited in marketing comes from a July 2023 user study and will vary wildly by home and habits.

FAQ

Do valves speak Matter natively? No—Zigbee to Thermo Hub, Matter from the hub.

Electric radiators? ORIGINAL targets hot-water boilers/heat pumps; Netatmo points elsewhere for electric.
