Weather Compensation Explained!

 

Weather compensation controls enable a condensing boiler to work at its optimum efficiency. The controls allow the boiler to vary its operating flow temperature automatically, day by day to suit the weather outside and the temperatures inside the house.

 

Weather compensation works with a sensor outside and another in the boiler communicating with each other, all the time and varying the boiler's water flow temperature accordingly, rather than the boiler turning on and off which wastes energy. The aim is to keep the temperature as low as possible and so the boiler condenses for virtually all of its operating period.

 

Fitting weather compensation can increase the efficiency gain of your boiler by 10% and this can all be achieved from as little as £100 extra. Viessmann boilers come with the connections and control on the boiler to make weather compensation a "plug and play" option.
