Vaillant

Possible Causes
Room sensor located too close to supply air, Sensor not properly clipped, Oversized Vaillant unit for room size, Airflow short‑circuit due to louver direction
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Isolate power before adjusting internal sensors.
- Check sensor location: Ensure the indoor ambient sensor is positioned to sense room air, not directly in the cold supply stream.
- Adjust louvers: Aim the louvers horizontally or slightly upward to avoid blowing directly on the sensor area.
- Verify sensor clip: Confirm the sensor is firmly clipped in its designated holder and not dangling.
- Use appropriate mode: Avoid setting the temperature extremely low or high; use moderate setpoints to reduce cycling.
- If problem persists: A Vaillant technician can evaluate sensor calibration and system sizing.
