Possible Causes

Oversized boiler for system, Incorrect control settings, Poor system water volume, Faulty room thermostat placement

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Adjust only user-accessible settings unless you are a qualified technician.

  • Check thermostat location: Ensure the room thermostat is not located near heat sources or in draughts, which can cause rapid temperature swings.
  • Adjust hysteresis: If the thermostat allows, increase the temperature differential (hysteresis) to reduce cycling.
  • Enable anti-cycling (if available): Some Elnur boilers have an anti-cycling time parameter. Increase this within recommended limits.
  • Increase system volume: Adding a buffer tank or additional radiators can help if the boiler is significantly oversized.
