Possible Causes
DHW NTC sensor out of calibration, Poor sensor contact with pipe, Mixing valve or thermostatic tap altering temperature, Incorrect parameter settings
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Risk of scalding if water is hotter than indicated. Test carefully.
- 1. Measure actual temperature: Use a thermometer at a hot tap to compare with the heater's display.
- 2. Check sensor mounting: Ensure the DHW NTC is firmly attached to the outlet pipe or properly inserted into its pocket with thermal paste if specified.
- 3. Bypass mixers: Test at a simple tap to rule out thermostatic mixers altering temperature.
- 4. Replace NTC sensor (technician): If readings are consistently offset, replace the DHW NTC sensor and verify calibration.
