My radiator is not achieving my set
point
Is your radiator sized correctly? If the radiator is not powerful enough to heat the space it is in, then you will need a
bigger or second radiator. We would suggest 100 watts per square meter on average insulation, 80 watts per square
meter on very good insulation and 120watts per square meter in conservatories or properties with poor insulation.
Check that your radiator is not positioned near or door or window that you open often as this will prompt the open
window feature to enable. If your radiator is positioned in a drafty area, this feature could also activate. To disable
this function, go into your configuration menu and scroll down to ‘Open window detection’ press OK so that this
says ‘Detection Off’ then press the arrow up key and OK to select back. Then press the arrow up and back again.
Please note positioning your radiator in a drafty area is not advised as this will still effect the temperature the
sensor is reading.
Is your radiator showing as calling for heat when it should be heating? You should see 3 wavy lines in the bottom
left of the screen. If these are on, is your radiator warm? Check all the way along the radiator to check for any
cooler spots. The edges may take a little longer to heat up.
How can I turn my radiator off?
Aeroflow radiators are not really designed to be turned off as such. You just need to programme the radiator to suit
your schedule. We would always recommend leaving your radiator on a minimum of 5 degrees in order to prevent
your home from freezing over on particularly cold days. Otherwise we rely on the thermostatic control and the timer
to look after your temperature requirements.
Please remember that the radiator will only ever begin to heat up if your room temperature is lower than your set
point. On warmer days, your radiator will not heat up if the temperature is naturally above your set point.
If you are thinking that you would like to turn your radiator off during the night or when you are out during the day,
just select a set point of somewhere between 5 and 10 degrees for these time frames. The radiator will then only
begin to heat should the temperature in your room fall below this, which is unlikely on most days.
If you are going on holiday, you can set your radiator to ‘holiday mode’. This simply put the radiator into your ant-frost
mode until you return. To select your ant-frost temperature, select anti – freeze in your configuration menu and select
your desired anti-freeze temperature, we would suggest 5 degrees.
To set holiday mode, in the configuration menu, use the arrow down key to scroll to ‘Holiday’ press ok and then select
the number of days you are going to be away for, press OK and then enter the time you will be returning and press ok,
select the temperature you wish your room to be upon your return and then press ok. You should now see a suitcase
on your working screen with a number at the side of it to show how many days the radiator is off for. The radiator will
now go into your anti-frost temperature until you return.
