, the heating circuit concerned is put out of service immediately. The valve is closed and the
pump is switched off after t = 2 x valve transit time. Heating operation is restarted immediately
when the outdoor temperature falls below this value (less 0.5 °C hysteresis).
With the default settings, this means that, during the warm season, the system is switched off at
an outdoor temperature of 22 °C.

the heating circuit concerned is put out of service immediately. The valve is closed and the
pump is switched off after t = 2 x valve transit time. Heating operation is restarted immediately
when the outdoor temperature falls below this value (less 0.5 °C hysteresis).
With the default settings, this means that, at night, the system is switched off at an outdoor
temperature of 15 °C to save energy. Nevertheless, remember that the system requires some
time in the morning to heat up the building.
