Im so confused! I have a KNX installation in my one house, and Fibaro on second one. Heating with Fibaro is f*** joke!!! 

You can see heating floor temperature log. NEVER, N E V E R install Fibaro. This is worthless system I've even used.

The jump in temperature above the set value depends mainly on the inertia of the heating source - it will be different with underfloor heating and still different with radiators. The temperature of the air in the room is not easy to correct because it is also affected by outdoor temperature and insolation, the efficiency of recuperation (if any) and the type of room (e.g. kitchen, bathroom). In addition, it is important at what height you have the temperature sensor to correctly measure its value.

As you can see, there are many conditions affecting the temperature of the room, and the most important thing is to correctly understand the principles of operation and the factors affecting the whole. Comparing and evaluating two systems just by their name without providing any additional configuration details misses the point.

 I use  Fibaro Thermostat established in the HC3  to link my Fibaro multi sensor, that measures the temperature, to  a Z-wave switch that turns my heating source on or off.  I then use the HC3 Heating Schedule to set up a schedule that changes the set point throughout the day.  It works well for me.    I might be able to assist if you could post a screen shot of the Thermostat device that you must have set up .   If not try setting a 'Virtual Thermostat ' in Settings>Devices > Add Device> Other Device> Thermostat.... then link your thermometer to your on/ off switch.   Let me know if you need more detail.

    Tomasz, what are you talking about? I'm in building automation business for 13-14 years (BMS systems, KNX, etc). I exactly understand what did you write. The point is: expected temperature in the room is set on 21,5 degrees, and Fibaro thermostat doesn't go even close this value. The "system" is heating and heating... Please don't write about compensation if you want to ;)

    Please don't talk marketing and pseudo-expert s**t. If you are "learner" I would expect, that you type a propose how to change PWM settings, or something else...

    If you have problem with it, you can type in Polish.

    As I said before: IMHO Fibaro is worthless if you have floor heating in your building. Period.

     

    Mike, typing "Z-wave switch that turns my heating source on or off" you mean simple on/off states? I'm afraid that It won't work properly with floor heating. PWM is expected... but must be better than Fibaro's. Thank you for your feedback.

    @ioryuewi Maybe ease down a bit. You didn't introduced yourself and immediately start swearing in your first posts. That is not the way. I wouldn't walk in a pub acting like that, so also not on a forum.

    SME - Thank you very much! This is the best my problems solution. I don't care what do you do in pubs. I care about my wasted money. This product is the best in marketing only (from the beginning by the way), and this is point of my first post. Yes, I'm angry, because NOONE from Fibaro helped me before (I try to resolve this from a month), so I wrote my first post.

    Anyway: if you don't know where the problem with thermostat is, go to the pub with useless Fibaro experts, ok? No offense.

     

    So... todays log below (if you can help me, I'll send you surprise to Netherlands ;)

    I read this thread twice and i do not understand anything.

     

    Can you please share with us what is the setup that you have ?  As in what devices are you using and so on.  From what you said so far i understood it is about floor heating, but then you mentiond PWM.  Fibaro has only one heating PWM device and that is designed for something else , not underfloor heating. 

     

    Cheers.
