Possible Causes

Outdoor reset curve set too low, Maximum setpoint limited in the control, Raypak boiler undersized for peak load, Mixing valve set too low

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Only adjust control parameters if you understand their function; otherwise, consult a professional.

Steps:

  • Review the boiler setpoint and maximum temperature limits in the Raypak control menu.
  • If outdoor reset is enabled, verify the design temperatures and slope are appropriate for your climate and system.
  • Check any mixing valves or thermostatic valves for correct settings.

If the boiler cannot maintain temperature even at maximum safe settings, a load calculation and system review by a heating contractor are recommended.
