Possible Causes

Incorrect hysteresis or minimum run time configured, Firmware bug in anti‑cycle logic, Room sensor reading unstable due to drafts, Thermostat installed in poor location causing rapid temperature swings

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: No direct electrical risk, but frequent cycling can damage the boiler.

  • Adjust settings:
    • Increase temperature hysteresis (difference between on and off) in the installer menu.
    • Increase minimum burner on/off times if available.
  • Improve thermostat location:
    • Ensure the thermostat is on an internal wall, away from drafts, direct sunlight, and heat sources.
    • Relocate if necessary.
  • Check sensor stability:
    • Monitor the displayed room temperature; if it jumps quickly, there may be a sensor or placement issue.
  • If F19 remains and cycling continues:
    • Update firmware or replace the Ferroli smart thermostat if the control logic is faulty.
