Are there now more sophisticated ways of programming heating than a thermostat and timer?
A. Yes, more intelligent heating controls are now available that can increase your comfort and save energy. For example, wireless heat controls in every room can be re-set remotely from your laptop – very useful if the time you thought you’d arrive home changes. Weather compensation controls do just what they say by monitoring the outside temperature and the room temperature using Vaillant’s VRC 400 or VRC 430 controls and then adjusting the boiler to achieve the required heat output. On a sunny day, for example, the heat output from the boiler will be reduced, as a result radiators may feel cool to touch.
