    FROST PROTECTION SYSTEM The VIBE MAX is equipped with a built-in frost protection system, this enables the boiler to over-ride the time controls – even if switched off – and operate the burner and/or pump, should the temperature drop below 5°C. In particular the burner will be in ON status until the appliance temperature reaches 35°C.
