Possible Causes

Thermostat installed on cold external wall, High indoor humidity, Water leak behind wall or near boiler, Inadequate sealing of cable entry points on control module

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Moisture and electricity are hazardous. Turn off power to the control module and boiler before touching any damp equipment.

  • Dry the area: Allow the thermostat or control module to dry naturally; do not use direct heat sources.
  • Check for leaks: Inspect for plumbing leaks, roof leaks, or condensation on pipes near the device.
  • Improve placement: If on an external wall, consider relocating the thermostat to an internal wall or adding insulation behind it.
  • Seal cable entries: For the control module, ensure grommets and cable glands are properly fitted to reduce moisture ingress.

If corrosion or repeated moisture is observed, replace the affected Ngenic device and correct the underlying moisture problem.
