Central heating

temperature reduction saves up to 6% on your heating
bills. Never set your standard room temperature higher
than 68°F (20°C).
H Time program:
Heat your home to the standard room temperature
during the day and the reduced temperature at night.
Set the time program for this.
H Operating program:
If you do not require central heating, select one of the
following operating programs:
– "DHW only":
If you require no heating for your home in summer,
but you need hot water.
– "Standby mode":
If you don't need to heat your home and don't need
hot water for long periods.
H Short absence:
Reduce the room temperature if you are going out
shopping, for example. For this, select "Economy
mode".

Tips for Greater Comfort

Central heating
H Standard room temperature
("Room temp set point"):
You can select your individual preferred temperature
at any time in the standard menu.
H Time program:
Make use of the time program. In the time program,
you can set time phases with different room
temperatures, for example different temperatures for
day and night time.
H Heating curve:
The heating curve enables you to individually adjust
the heating system to the actual heat demand in your
home.
If set correctly, your preferred temperature will be
achieved all year round.
H Holiday:
If you are going away, select the "Holiday program":
The room temperature will be reduced, and DHW
heating will be turned off.
H Ventilation:
Close the thermostatic valves when ventilating.
Open the windows fully for a brief time.
H Roller shutters:
Close roller shutters (if installed) at dusk.
H Thermostatic valves:
Ensure that thermostatic valves are properly adjusted.
H Radiators:
Never cover radiators or thermostatic valves.
DHW heating
H DHW recirculation pump:
Only activate the DHW recirculation pump for periods
in which DHW is regularly drawn off. Set the time
program for this.
H DHW consumption:
Consider showering instead of running a bath. A
shower generally uses less energy than a full bath.
For additional energy saving functions of the Vitotronic
control unit, please contact your heating contractor.
H "Comfort mode":
Select "Comfort mode" if you want to heat your
interior at a temperature that deviates from that
in a time program.
Example: Late in the evening, the reduced room
temperature is set by the time program.
Your guests stay longer.
