Does the MAX! system work?

Post by ceemjay »

Can anyone explain what's going on here:

Room 1 - Target 17C, actual temperature reported by valve 21.7C, Valve still open 28%
Room 2 - Target 17C, Actual 20.7C, Valve 25%

Shouldn't the valves be closed if the rooms are 3C or 4C over temperature?

Thanks
Clive

PS The current actual temperature was reported by Max!Buddy and I have also posted this on their English forum

I've seen similar readings here. I suspect that the valve is kept open for longer to compensate for the fact that the temp sensor is near the radiator instead of in the room, but I don't know how they implemented this exactly, of course. Perhaps someone else has done some more thorough observations?
