KE100 does not turn heating off properly
KE100 does not turn heating off properly
Hi,
I've installed a KE100 smart thermostatic valve to a radiator some hours ago.
I set it to "freeze protection" which, to my understanding, should completely close the valve unless the temperature sensor detects something below 5°C.
At first, the radiator heated up, due to my testing and configuration. After that, when set to freeze protection, it seems to me that the valve is not completely closed. The temperature sensor shows decreasing room temperature, but the radiator and the tubes leading to the radiator are still too warm for "off".
What is going wrong here?
The mechanical installation looks properly and tight fit, tightening it even more would break it i think.
The old "dumb" thermostatic valve worked fine closing everything completely.
Thanks ahead for your suggestions.

@DialMforMarius thanks a lot for your help.
I observed the last couple of days and must say I am so happy with the heating behavior. These random heating peaks seemed to be gone and it heats when it is hitting the set threshold.
Will the firmware 2.1.0 be available officially? I am thinking about upgrading other radiators with the device as well but would want to have the patched firmware as well.
Thanks a lot again that this worked out with the prompt firmware patch! <3
