FAQs
Can I install this myself?
Yes, the design emphasizes ease of installation. However, depending on your chosen mounting location (e.g., recessed installation), some DIY experience or professional help might be beneficial.
What is the maximum length of the capillary tube?
The capillary tube has a hair length that extends from 0 to 5 meters, providing significant flexibility in placement.
How do I set the temperature limits?
The unit features limit and lock settings. Refer to the product manual or look for markings on the adjustment button to set your desired minimum and maximum temperature range.
Is this suitable for all types of radiators?
This element is designed for radiators or convectors. Ensure it is compatible with your specific radiator valve connection.
Does it require electricity?
No, this is a mechanical thermostatic control element and does not require batteries or electrical power.
What temperature range can it control?
The adjustable range is from 8°C to 28°C, allowing for precise climate control.
What does 'anti-frost protection' do?
Anti-frost protection prevents the radiator from freezing in cold conditions by maintaining a minimum temperature, typically around 5-7°C, when the control is set to its lowest setting.
Troubleshooting
Temperature is not adjusting
Verify the capillary tube is correctly connected to the radiator valve and is not kinked. Ensure the adjustment button is set to the desired temperature within the adjustable range (8-28°C).
Unit feels loose after mounting
Re-secure the mounting of the control unit. Ensure appropriate fixings are used for the wall type or mounting location.
Anti-frost protection is not working
Confirm the temperature setting is below the freezing point (typically around 5-7°C) and that the limit settings are not preventing it from reaching this low temperature.
Adjustment button is stiff or difficult to turn
Gently try to operate the button. If it remains stiff, ensure no debris is obstructing it. Avoid forcing the button, as this could cause damage.
