How heating controls work

Smart technology at its best.

Efficient and energy-saving heating is the core purpose of any heating control. By continuously coordinating heating appliances and adjusting device performance, flow temperatures, and heating times to meet the home's warmth needs, modern heating controls ensure optimal operation. Thereby, various methods of temperature control are available. Radiator thermostats represent the simplest form of heating regulation, maintaining set room temperatures by automatically adjusting radiator output. However, traditional radiator thermostats have limitations as they do not provide feedback to the heating device about optimal flow temperatures.

This is where outdoor-temperature guided heating control, also known as weather-dependent regulation, comes into play. It measures external temperature with an outdoor sensor to determine the necessary flow temperature for radiators, guided by a heating curve. On the other hand, room-temperature guided regulation automatically adjusts flow temperatures based on readings from a designated reference room, responding to internal heat gains and losses.

In combination with the outdoor temperature guided heating control, the room temperature guided heating control further enhances efficiency by incorporating both room and outdoor temperature data into the heating operation. This combination enables precise adjustments to heating output, potentially reducing energy consumption.

Smart control solutions for diverse heating setups.

Smart controls are leading the charge as more individuals become digitally savvy. These advanced controls connect to your Wi-Fi via an internet gateway, like the myVAILLANT connect, allowing you to conveniently adjust home temperatures through a smartphone app such as the myVaillant app. Vaillant's range of smart controls harmonises with boilers and heat pumps, ensuring peak performance. In heating systems with more than one heating circuit, a system control such as the sensoCOMFORT automatically adapts to the weather conditions with its outdoor sensor, enhancing efficiency. It enables the control of several different devices, such as heat pumps with solar or a hybrid system with a heat pump and a gas boiler. If it needs to be simple and there is only one heating circuit with a gas boiler, a room temperature controller such as the sensoHOME is suitable.
