Possible Causes

Optimum start/stop enabled, Incorrect time or time zone, Overlapping schedule periods, Cloud sync delay

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: No electrical work required.

Steps:

  • 1. Check time and time zone: Ensure the thermostat clock and time zone are correct, either manually or via cloud sync.
  • 2. Review optimisation settings: In the settings, disable 'Optimum start' or 'Eco/Smart start' if you want heating to start exactly at the programmed time.
  • 3. Check for overlapping schedules: Ensure there are no conflicting programs for the same zone.
  • 4. Sync via app: Force a sync from the Ideal app after editing schedules.
