6 Troubleshooting
This chapter details frequently asked questions about your heating
system and their respective answers. This will, in many cases,
enable you to troubleshoot perceived faults. Following these, faults
and their remedies are listed in tabular form.
6.1 Frequently asked questions
Why does the room
temperature measured
with a separate
thermometer not
correlate with the set
room temperature?
Different values influence the room temperature. The cold wall
temperature will influence the RC20, if it has been fitted to a cold
wall. If it is installed in a warm part of the room, e.g. close to a
chimney, it will be influenced by the heat from that. Therefore, a
separate thermometer can indicate a different room temperature
than was set at the RC20 room controller.
To compare the actual room temperature with the values
measured by another thermometer, the following are important:
– The separate thermometer and the RC20 room controller must
be physically close to each other.
– The separate thermometer must be accurate.
– Never measure the comparative room temperature during the
heat-up phase of the heating system; the RC20 room controller
and the separate thermometer may react at different speeds to
the rising room temperature.
If you have observed these points, and you still notice a deviation,
your heating contractor can calibrate the room temperature
displayed by the RC20.
