Possible Causes

Room thermostat calibration error, Incorrect heating curve on the Hoval controller, Stuck open zone valve, Sensor located in the wrong room.

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Control adjustments are generally safe, but follow the manual.

  • Check thermostat setting: Confirm the setpoint is correct and that any schedule is appropriate.
  • Relocate sensor: If the Hoval room sensor is in a cold hallway or near a draught, move it to a representative living area.
  • Adjust heating curve: Reduce the heating curve or maximum flow temperature on the Hoval controller to moderate room temperatures.
  • Zone valves: Ensure motorised valves close properly when there is no demand. Replace faulty actuators.
