Shutting Down the Heating System

Shut down your heating system completely, if it is not

needed for longer periods of time (several months).
Before you switch your heating system OFF for longer
periods, it is advisable to contact your local heating
contractor. Your heating professional will take any
necessary measures, e.g. for freeze protection of the
system or to protect the heat emitter surfaces, e.g.
radiators etc.

1. Close gas shutoff valve and secure against

unintentional opening.

2. Switch OFF line voltage (e.g. at separate fuse/circuit

breaker).
The power supply to the system is now switched off.

Service Instructions for your Heating System

Viessmann strongly recommends inspection/service of the boiler and the system by a licensed professional heating
contractor once per year.
Before the heating season begins, the boiler with its burner(s) and vent system should be serviced by a qualified heating
contractor. Service contracts may be established through gas suppliers or other licensed contractors in your area.
Regular inspection/service ensures trouble free, energy-efficient and environmentally friendly heating activity
of your heating system.

How to Save Energy

.... by heating the right way

Apart from taking advantage of the benefits of a modern
heating system, there is a lot you can do yourself to
achieve additional fuel savings.
For instance:
- Don’t overheat:
Aim at a room temperature of 68º F (20º C).
Every 2º F (1º C) less in room temperature will reduce
your heating bills by up to 6%.
- Close window shutters (if installed) at dusk.
- Operate thermostatic valves 2 correctly.
- Don’t obstruct radiators 3 and thermostatic valves 2.
- Make use of individual adjustment options of the
control unit 4 (supplied by others);
e.g. “normal room temperature” alternating with
“reduced room temperature”.
- Set the domestic hot water temperature of the DHW
tank 5 on the control unit of the tank or on external
controller.
- Control your consumption of hot water:
A shower generally consumes less energy than a bath.
... with regular maintenance
Regular maintenance check-ups of your heating system
6 by a licensed professional heating contractor will
ensure energy savings and environmentally friendly
operation.

.... with effective insulation

If you wish to make use of additional energy-saving
measures, check the thermal insulation:
- of heating and domestic hot water pipes.
- of external walls and the roof.
- between heated and unheated rooms.
- of the windows.
