Possible Causes
Heating curve slope or shift set too high, Room sensor offset misconfigured, Thermostat installed near heat source, Stuck open TRVs or zone valves
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Radiators and pipes may be hot; avoid prolonged contact.
- Verify setpoint and schedule: Ensure no temporary override or party mode is active raising the temperature.
- Lower heating curve: Reduce the heating curve slope or parallel shift slightly and observe the effect over a day.
- Check thermostat location: Move heat sources (lamps, electronics) away from the thermostat and avoid direct sunlight.
- Inspect valves: Ensure thermostatic radiator valves and zone valves can close properly and are not stuck open.
