Tips For Greater Comfort - Viessmann VITODENS Operating Instructions Manual

Energy saving tips
DHW heating
DHW circulation pump (see page 36):
■
Only activate the DHW circulation pump for periods
in which DHW is regularly drawn off. Set this via the
time program.
■ DHW consumption:
Consider showering instead of running a bath. A
shower generally uses less energy than a full bath.
Mechanical ventilation
If a ventilation unit is connected to the Vitotronic.
Short absence:
■
Reduce the ventilation level in the ventilation display
area. For this, select "Eco" or the "Basic mode"
operating program.
■ Holidays (see page 37):
If you are going away, select the "Holiday pro-
gram":
The ventilation level is reduced. The room tempera-
ture is reduced and DHW heating is turned off.

Tips for greater comfort

Central heating
■ Standard room temperature (see page 29):
You can select your individual preferred temperature
at any time under "Set room temperature" in the
standard menu.
Time program (see page 16):
■
Make use of the time program. In the time program,
you can set time phases with different room temper-
atures, for example different temperatures for day
and night time.
Heating curve (see page 30):
■
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.
"Comfort mode" (see page 31):
■
Select "Comfort mode" if you want to heat your
rooms to a different temperature from the one set in
the time program.
Example: Late in the evening, the reduced room
temperature is set by the time program. Your guests
stay longer.
