Central heating
■
Standard room temperature
(
"Set room tempera-
ture"
, see page 23):
Never overheat your home. Every degree of room
temperature reduction saves up to 6 % on your heat-
ing bills.
Never set your standard room temperature higher
than 20 °C.
■
Time program
(see page 17):
Heat your rooms to the standard room temperature
during the day and the reduced temperature at night.
Set the time program for this.
■
Operating program
:
If you do not require central heating, select one of
the following operating programs:
–
"Only DHW"
If you require no heating for your home in summer,
but you need hot water.
–
"Standby mode"
(see page 21):
If you don't need to heat your home and don't need
hot water for longer periods.
■
Short absence
(see page 25):
Reduce the room temperature if you are going shop-
ping, for example. For this, select
"Economy
mode"
.
■
Holidays
(see page 26):
If you are going away, select the
"Holiday pro-
gram"
:
The room temperature will be reduced, and DHW
heating will be turned off.
■
Ventilation
:
To ventilate, close the thermostatic valves and open
the windows fully for a short time.
■
Roller shutters
:
Close roller shutters (where installed) at dusk.
■
Thermostatic valves
:
Ensure that thermostatic valves are properly set.
■
Radiators
:
Never cover radiators or thermostatic valves.
DHW heating
■
DHW circulation pump
(see page 29):
Only activate the DHW circulation pump for periods
in which DHW is regularly drawn off. Set the time
program for this.
■
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.
