Possible Causes

Heating curve slope set too high, Outdoor sensor installed on sunny or sheltered wall, Incorrect minimum/maximum flow temperature limits, Outdoor sensor not calibrated

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Control adjustments only; do not open the boiler.

  • Review heating curve:
    • Lower the slope and/or shift of the weather compensation curve in the thermostat installer menu.
  • Check outdoor sensor placement:
    • Ensure the Ferroli outdoor sensor is on a north or north‑west facing wall, away from direct sun and heat sources.
  • Set flow limits:
    • Configure reasonable minimum and maximum flow temperatures to prevent excessive boiler output.
  • Monitor and fine‑tune:
    • Observe comfort and gas usage over several days and adjust the curve gradually.
