3.1 Choosing the right installation position
3.1.1 Installation in reference room
If the system is room-temperature controlled, the following requirements must be
observed:
– Installation position on an internal wall (Fig. 1)
– Maintain the specified distance from the door(s) (to avoid draughts).
– Allow clearance below the programming unit (Fig. 1, shaded area) (to ensure correct
temperature measurement).
– The reference room (= installation room) must be as representative as possible of the
entire home. External heat sources in the reference room (like sunlight or other heat
sources such as an open fire) affect the control's function. This means it may be too
cold in rooms without external heat sources.
– The thermostatic valves on the radiators in the reference room must always stay fully
open so that the two temperature controls do not affect one another.
Fig. 1 Minimum clearances for installation in a reference room
If there is no suitable reference room, we recommend setting the system to out-
side temperature control instead (this requires an outside sensor). Alternatively
you could install an external room sensor in the room with the greatest heating
requirements (e.g. living room).
