Possible Causes

Relay contacts welded closed, Miswired thermostat (connected to permanent live), Stuck open thermal actuator or valve, Incorrect parameter settings (valve type NC/NO set wrong)

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Isolate mains power before inspecting wiring or valves. Hot water and surfaces can cause burns.

  • Check display: Confirm that the thermostat is not calling for heat (no flame icon). If it is, adjust setpoint or schedule.
  • Verify wiring: Ensure the thermostat output is wired through the correct relay contacts (COM and NO for normally open). If wired to NC, the system may heat when it should be off.
  • Check valve type setting: In the thermostat menu, verify that the valve type (NC = normally closed, NO = normally open) matches the installed Eurotronic actuator.
  • Test actuator: Disconnect power to the actuator. If heating stops after it cools, the actuator may be stuck open and should be replaced.
  • Replace thermostat/relay: If heating continues even with thermostat removed or relay disconnected, the relay contacts may be welded. Replace the thermostat or relay module.
