Adjustment of programmed changeover between day/setback mode
The figure shows a standard heating curve with a slope of 0.8, relative to a set room
temperature for day mode of 20 °C. The lower curve represents the setback curve. For this,
a set room temperature for setback mode of 15 °C is used, in other words the heating curve
is subjected to a parallel offset.

Matching a heating curve to actual conditions
Example: During spring and autumn, the return or flow temperature of a heating system is
too low at an outside temperature between 5 and 15 °C, but is OK at outside temperatures
of ≤ 0 °C. This problem can be remedied by a parallel offset and a simultaneous reduction of
the heating curve. Prior to this adjustment, heating curve 1.0 was adjusted, relative to a set
room temperature of 20 °C. The dotted line indicates the modified heating curve at 0.83 and
a modified set room temperature at 23.2 °C.
