System version
The system version describes the components of your
heating system, such as a boiler, heating circuit pump,
mixer, valves, control unit, radiators, etc.
Every heating system is individually configured and
adapted to the local conditions by your heating con-
tractor.
Operating program
The operating program enables you to determine for
example how your home and your DHW shall be
heated.
Operating status
See "Time program".
Electric booster heater
An electric booster heater can be used for reheating if
the required room temperature or DHW temperature
cannot be achieved.
Examples of electric booster heaters:
■
Instantaneous heating water heater:
–
For central heating and/or DHW heating
–
Integrated into the heat pump or into the flow of
your heating system
■
Immersion heater:
–
For DHW heating
–
Integrated into the DHW cylinder
Note
■
Constant operation of an electric booster heater
results in high electricity consumption.
Underfloor heating
Underfloor heating systems are slow, low temperature
heating systems and only respond very slowly to short
term temperature changes.
Therefore, heating to the reduced room temperature at
night and enabling
"Economy mode"
during short
absences do not result in significant energy savings.
Standard heating mode
For periods when you are at home during the day, heat
your rooms to the standard room temperature. You
determine the periods (time phases) with the central
heating time program.
Reduced heating mode
For periods when you are absent or during the night,
heat your rooms to the reduced room temperature. You
determine the periods with the central heating time
program. With underfloor heating systems, reduced
heating mode only yields limited energy savings (see
"Underfloor heating system").
Room temperature-dependent heating mode
In room temperature-dependent mode a room is
heated until the set room temperature has been
reached. For this, a separate temperature sensor must
be installed in the room.
The heating output is regulated independently of the
outside temperature.
Weather-compensated heating mode
In weather-compensated mode, the flow temperature
is controlled according to the outside temperature. This
means that only the exact amount of heat necessary to
heat the rooms to the selected temperature is gener-
ated.
The outside temperature is captured by a sensor fitted
on the outside of the building and transferred to the
boiler control unit.
Heating curve
The heating characteristics of your boiler are influ-
enced by the slope and level of the selected
heating
curve
.
Heating curves represent the correlation between the
outside temperature, the room temperature (set tem-
perature) and the (heating circuit) flow temperature.
■
Heating curve:
The
lower
the outside temperature, the
higher
the
flow temperature in the heating circuit.
In order to guarantee sufficient heat at any outside
temperature, the conditions of your building and your
heating system must be taken into consideration. For
this, you can adjust the heating curve.
