You need to add another puck and the Whole home pack.

You can do this within the 'Your product' section of the MySky app.

 

The extra puck will cost you a one off fee of £39.95 and the whole home pack is around £12  a month, depending on any deals.

Watching Sky in different rooms (Whole Home pack)

Smarten up any other TVs you’ve already got with extra Sky Stream pucks and the Whole Home monthly subscription.

Plug the Sky Stream puck into your TV to enjoy your Sky TV package in another room. Big matches in the lounge. Dinosaurs in the kitchen. With the Whole Home pack, you can fill your home with unlimited entertainment.

With the Whole Home pack you can also watch on four devices at the same time on the Sky Go app and on your games console.

  • One-off set-up fee for each Sky Stream puck applies.
  • Monthly subscription charge applies.
  • Sky Ultimate TV subscription required.

@Sharksfinn 

Each television set requires a Steam puck, and the address must be covered by the Whole Home subscription supplement in addition to the channel bundle.

Of course, but presumably there's a much better profit margin on Glass.

Re: How to stream to second tv

I was also told that you could stream to all TVs in the home without additional boxes!! That was the only reason I signed up! There was no mention of needed to purchase additional boxes or having to add on the whole home package!!

@Terrina  You need a puck for each TV you want to watch Sky on, the pucks cannot stream to other TV as they need to be physically  connected by HDMO, either the CSA is seriosusly imisinformed or they simply did not expain fully how stream works.

Like you I'm a customer here, Sky Employees are clearly identified as such.

Re: How to stream to second tv

I have sky glass as my primary tv, I've just signed up for whole home and got a puck for my bedroom tv. However the tv itself is 8 years old and the uhd is showing deficiencies in the picture. If I get sky glass air as my bedroom tv(so my second tv) will I need to use the puck or will it use the tv's operating system? Seems silly to need to use the puck for an actual sky tv.

Re: How to stream to second tv

Unless you definately need a Glass TV, then keep the puck and look for another TV for the bedroom. Chances are you can find a better spec. TV for the same price as Glass.

You can stream to any TV in your house just not simultaneously. 

I have a power adapter and HDMI sticking out of each TV and I swap it between downstairs and upstairs depending on where I am/time of day etc....
