Hello dear forum members,
while my house construction ( ) can soon begin, I am once again asking myself this year, as every year, how I can properly control my heating in the currently occupied condominium.
The whole house is supplied with district heating and I have a heating circuit distributor for the heating (underfloor heating) and ERR in the rooms.
The ERR have levels from snowflake to 6 and 4 is a black dot.
You can hear a small click both in the ERR and in a small white box hanging next to the HKV that probably controls the actuators as soon as level 5 or just below is turned.
Then, after some time, there is a noticeable warming of the floor.
Below that, nothing happens.
Problem: It has actually been too warm in the last 4 winters. Nothing regulates down automatically; it seems to me that when the click happens, it just opens until you turn it off again.
Questions:
1. Am I correct in assuming that with district heating no outside temperature or flow or return temperature control can be made since 80°C hot water always arrives?
2. Does this mean that meaningful control can only be done via flow rates at the HKV (indirectly via ERR)?
3. Does anyone know how I can adjust my existing heating differently?
4. Does anyone know an inexpensive alternative system for "upgrading"?
HKV


Control box

ERR

Thanks and regards
