SPRSUN
Temperature Control Overshoot
Water temperature overshoots the setpoint by several degrees before the heater shuts off.

Possible Causes
Thermostat differential set too wide, Slow response of water temperature sensor, Sensor not in proper location, Control algorithm parameters incorrect
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: No internal access is usually required; work via the control panel.
- Check differential setting: If the SPRSUN controller allows, reduce the temperature differential or hysteresis so the heater stops closer to the setpoint.
- Verify sensor placement: Ensure the water temperature sensor is installed in a location with good mixing, not in a dead-end pipe.
- Improve circulation: Run the pool pump at an adequate speed to ensure uniform water temperature.
- Firmware/parameter check: If overshoot is severe, a technician may need to review control parameters or update firmware.
