Heating curves and adjustments
▀
The right heating curve is essential to get a pleasant indoor climate. The heat curve shall be
adjusted for your properties energy need at different outdoor temperatures. All properties have
different energy needs, which could mean that one house would need a 80˚F flow at a outdoor
temperature of +-32˚F while another house needs 115˚F.
Adjustment of the heating curve is done in the "Shunt control" menu. There you set choosen curve and adjust it. It
can take several weeks to find the right curve and make the fine tunings needed. During the time the adjustment
are made it is important that:
- The outdoor temperature must not be higher than +41˚F.
- Energy saver function must be switched off.
- Valves on the radiators must be fully open.
- Radiators must be checked and in function..
It is hard to find the right curve from the start, you may have an idea of which temperature you used to have on your
heating system. If you do not know which temperature your house needs you can use our recommended values:
- Houses with underfloor heating. "Slope 95"
- Well insulated low energy house with low temp. radiators. "Slope 105"
- A high temp. radiator system in a older house with poor insulation. "slope 130"
Example of slope:
If the slope is set to 130
outdoor temperature of 5°F.
signifacantly lower as described above.
Example of adjustment:
Adjustment of the curve means that the temperature can be raised or lowered at a
certain outdoor temperature. Adjustment 0 means that the flow is 68
temperature of 68°F. Adjustment -10 means that flow temperature is instead 58°F.
