Where to Install the KT-2A Room Controller

Correct placement of the KT-2A room controller is essential for accurate temperature regulation and efficient heat-pump operation. Because the controller measures room temperature and sends signals to the system, its location has a direct impact on comfort and energy performance.

Recommended Installation Guidelines

For the best performance, keep these key principles in mind:

• Avoid heat sources and direct sunlight. Radiators, heaters, fireplaces and sun-exposed spots can cause the controller to detect an artificially high temperature.

• Stay clear of drafts and strong airflow. Positioning near open windows, exterior doors, vents or fans may lead to fluctuating readings.

• Choose an interior wall in a frequently used room. The ideal location is a space that best represents the average temperature of the home.

• Install at a height of around 1.5 metres. This height helps the controller measure temperature at a level that reflects normal living conditions.

• Keep away from electrical interference. Electronics that generate heat or signal noise can affect the temperature sensor.

Best Locations in the Home

A central living area or hallway with stable, consistent temperatures is usually ideal. Ensure the controller has free airflow around it and is not hidden behind furniture or curtains. Rooms with extreme humidity or rapid temperature changes, such as kitchens and bathrooms, should be avoided.

Why Placement Matters

A well-positioned KT-2A ensures:

• Accurate temperature readings, preventing over- or under-heating.

• Improved comfort, thanks to steady and reliable temperature control.

• Greater energy efficiency, as the heat pump only works as much as it needs to.

• Long-term system performance, free from interference caused by poor placement.
