      Brian PatelAug 3, 2025
      If there's no flow from the Acorn Control Unit valve, make sure the hot and cold supplies are working and the shutoffs are open. Also, inspect and clean the filters, as they might be blocked with debris.

      Anthony FisherAug 10, 2025
      If the Acorn Control Unit does not maintain the outlet temperature or it changes over time, the fluctuation in supply pressures or filters blocked with debris could be the reason. Check the differential temperature between supplies and outlet. Clean the filters.

    Why set point is difficult to set in Acorn Control Unit?
    • E
      Edward MartinezAug 26, 2025
      If the set point is difficult to set or cannot be reached on your Acorn Control Unit, it could be due to the supply temperatures not being within specified limits, or the hot and cold supplies being reversed. Check the differential temperature between supplies and outlet. Reinstall the valve with supplies connected to marked inlets.
