I’m having an issue with my thermostats and was wondering if anyone has an idea what might be wrong.
I’m using the Mushroom card in Home Assistant, but I don’t think the problem is related to that – let’s start from the beginning:
I have 6 Tuya thermostats (model: TS0601) installed in different rooms. All of them are showing the exact same issue. When I set the target temperature to, say, 25°C – and the current room temperature is below that – the thermostat does not start heating.
In Zigbee2MQTT, the reported values look correct: target and current temperature are accurate. However, the radiator remains cold and no heating is triggered.
Where does the heat need to come from? The radiator thermostats are only controlling the valve, the central heating unit also needs to be told to start heating. What is used to drive that device (opentherm or on/off)
The heating system has an ‘automatic’ mode and measures the temperature at the thermostat. If the room temperature is too low, it starts heating. Once the desired room temperature is reached, it stops heating.
So when that thermostat measures temperature above setting, there will be no heating
The other valves will not be able to drive ‘heat demand’ as i see it with this info. What is your thermostat brand that does the heating?
