Possible Causes

TRVs not correctly bound to room thermostat, Incorrect room assignment in Wiser app, Stuck TRV valve pin, Firmware mismatch causing desynchronisation

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: TRVs are battery-powered; no mains isolation is usually required, but always follow manufacturer guidance.

  • Check room mapping: In the Wiser app, ensure each TRV is assigned to the correct room and controller thermostat.
  • Reset and rebind TRVs: Remove the TRV from the app, reset it according to Drayton instructions, then re-add and assign it to the correct room.
  • Check valve pin: Remove the TRV head and ensure the radiator valve pin moves freely and returns under spring pressure. Free gently if stuck.
  • Update firmware: Use the app to update TRV firmware to the latest version.
