Room thermostat / individual room control for underfloor heating next to the door?

Hello. We had a conversation with our electrician for our new building. He recommends that the room thermostats should not be integrated into the switch panel (next to the doors). He would install the switch panel at a distance of about 20cm from the door at a height of 1.15m. Then, at a distance of 15cm, the room thermostat would follow at a height of 1.50m.

Does that make sense? It bothers me a bit that the room thermostat would only be about 35cm away from the door. As far as I have read, one should avoid drafts or mounting near the door. Such a door can also be left open sometimes when children are around. Is the distance of 35cm from the door to the individual room controller sufficient to ensure the functionality of the room thermostats? What do you think?

Best regards Pädda

What reason does the electrician give? Actually, it doesn't matter, because in a well-adjusted heating system the ERR should be nonfunctional anyway. Unfortunately, they are mandatory due to the Energy Saving Ordinance, otherwise they would simply be omitted altogether...

Imagine what that looks like. Have fun with such an electrician.

He would install the switch strip about 20cm away from the door at a height of 1.15m. Then, with a distance of 15cm, the room thermostat follows at a height of 1.50m.

Does that make sense?

The vertical spacing is done like this in all installations that are designed for people (keyword user-friendly) and do not follow a rigid pattern.

So yes, this is absolutely common. However, of course, without offset but in a straight line with the switches and sockets below.

It is quite common that the ERR is higher than the switches. Installed like that with us too, although decommissioned.

Yes, higher, but then 15 cm next to it?! Or did the OP maybe misunderstand that?

He would have a distance of about 20cm to the door

The distance of 35cm from the door is enough
