How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Radiators can be hot. Use gloves and avoid contact with very hot surfaces.

  • Check batteries: Replace TRV batteries and ensure the cover is secure.
  • Verify adapter: Confirm the correct valve adapter is used for your radiator valve body and that it is tight.
  • Free the valve pin: Remove the TRV head and gently press the radiator valve pin in and out with a blunt tool until it moves freely.
  • Recalibrate TRV: Refit the TRV and run any available calibration routine via the Wiser app or TRV button sequence.
  • If still unreliable: Replace the affected Wiser Smart Radiator Thermostat.
