Hello,
we moved into our new build exactly one year ago. We have a KFW55 house with a geothermal heat pump, triple glazing, a ventilation system, and of course underfloor heating. We are very satisfied with the house, but only one thing bothers me, and that is the temperature in the bedrooms. It is always between 20 and 22 degrees (using different thermometers) even though we do not heat there. On the one hand, it is too warm for me and I would like it cooler, and on the other hand, I am surprised about the temperature. Of course, one could sleep with the windows open, which we do quite often, but I am not really satisfied with this solution.
The thermostat in the room is set to 0 degrees. Even the valves for the bedrooms are all turned off. Only the bathroom on the first floor is heated. However, the floor in the bedroom feels noticeably warm in some places. Of course, we have contacted the sanitary company, and they were here and said that the valves are closed and that it cannot be... but I just cannot shake the feeling that the room is still being heated. What do you think? Could it be that the room is only warmed by the heat from the living space below (kitchen/dining and living room)?
Do you have any ideas what it could be due to? Or is it simply like this with such a configuration, room below being heated, good insulation of the house, that the bedrooms are just warmer than they used to be?
Thank you for your advice!
