MoHo: New Adria Matrix Supreme 670 DL
System : Alde Compact 3030 version 1.17
Panel version : 1.97
We collected the new MoHo on Tuesday and are having problems with the alde heating system. As we’ve not had Alde before, it could well be user error.
The problem:
First Night:
We wanted the system to maintain a minimum temperature of 16 degrees over night. Before going to bed, I adjusted the indoor temperature setting to 16 degrees and left everything else the same. In the morning, however, the van was really cold and the panel was showing 11 degrees indoor temperature!
So assuming user error, I set up night mode and day mode. Night mode was set to run from 10pm to 7am all days with a temp setting of 16 degrees, hot water off, Use bed sensor off.
The day mode settings are start :0700 End 22:00, temperature 21 degrees, Hot water On. All days
I also adjusted the indoor calibration to +1.5 degrees to bring the temperature readings to match the Adria temperature readings. I need to get a thermometer to find the true indoor temperatures, and calibrate accordingly.
Night Two:
The system switched to night mode correctly at 10pm, but in the morning at 06:45, the van was cold again, the heating wasn’t working and the panel was showing a temperature of 13 degrees.
However, the panel was showing the pump circulating symbol and the EHU symbol was illuminated showing that the system was using electricity. It seems that the panel was reacting to the low temperature but the boiler/circulatory system wasn’t.
At 07:00 the panel switched to day mode correctly, and the system started to heat up the van.
1) Should Pump be set to continuous? It currently isn’t but when I set it to continuous, a message says “Normal hot water disabled” so I leave continuous mode off.
2) Under system configuration Pump is set to manual. There are two choices manual or PWM. As I can’t find out what PWM is in the manual, I’ve left it at manual. Is that correct?
It all seems to work fine during the day, but takes time to warm up from cold, but at night the system isn’t maintaining the target temperature.
Any thoughts and advice, greatly appreciated!!
Thanks
