A good way to troubleshoot thermostats (if you have more than one on site), is to switch them around to determine if the problem is with the device, wiring, funace output or the environment. The likelyhood of three stats "drifting" is unlikely. How does the same thermostat perform in a different environment or home? It sounds like you're doing everything right.
