Hi Mark,

Since there are 11 thermostats in the house, it does not look like a bad score but it becomes a problem if these are the only ones requesting heat from the boiler!
Question: why does this happen? And of course, how do I make these thermostats behave as they should?
I assume that the thermostats are Eurotronic Spirits?
Assuming this is the case, there are numerous reports on the web concerning these thermostats misbehaving at random. It looks like a firmware issue, possibly related to hardware.
@Busta999 gave me a heads-up on a forum post for a different HA system that had a potential work-around for this Spirit issue.
I have now programmed this into the TRV plugin and it is currently undergoing testing with a number of beta testers. I have sent you a PM with the link to the this beta version. The instructions of what specific settings are need is in the PM. Let me know if you try it and what your results are.
I will be posting it as a pre-release version on Github once I have completed a few more changes (probably a few weeks time).
