Wireless thermostat not cooling the radiator
Options
I have wireless thermostat in the living room and Radiator thermostat on other rooms.
Living room rads still hot even when I have set wireless to lower temp. Eg 23 in room set to 18. There is one room in the house where I have set the temp to 21 24hr. Any ideas why?

@DonDon I think @GrayDav4276 has hit the nail on the head.
Your wireless thermostat is not capable of stopping hot water flowing through your radiators in the living room. As you say you've got other rooms equipped with tado radiator thermostats capable of calling the boiler to fire, then when they do request heat, the hot water will flow through any open radiators in your home. In this case, that will also include those in your living room.
So while your wireless thermostat is happy and not firing the boiler itself, those radiators will still heat up if another device fires the boiler as tado has no way of shutting those radiators off...

@DonDon
The non Tado radiators in your living room will receive heat whenever your boiler is fired up......if you want your living room radiators to be controlled by the Wireless Thermostat then you will need to get tado SRT's fitted to these radiators and use the Wireless Thermostat as the room "Measuring Device"1
