System technology for your Viessmann heating system

Creating comprehensive solutions with Viessmann system technology

"In line with this philosophy, Viessmann does not simply supply individual heating components that meet Viessmann's high standards of quality, reliability and efficiency.

All products are matched and designed to work together as a single system right at the factory. Only perfect interaction between all system components can unlock the full potential of our innovative, cutting-edge technology. This applies not only to new buildings but also to existing ones, as many components can be easily upgraded and expanded.

Your personal path to an effective comprehensive system

Viessmann system technology improves overall efficiency through the optimal interaction of individual components. This has both environmental and economic benefits. By using resources sparingly, both CO2 emissions and operating costs can be reduced. Attractive subsidies for energy-efficient system solutions ensure an even faster return on investment.

Individual components grow together

When it comes to innovative energy solutions, the combination of electricity and heat is becoming increasingly important. For example, the Viessmann Vitovolt photovoltaic system supplies solar energy not only to home and consumer electronics and electric vehicles, but also to electricity-powered heat generators, such as heat pumps. Vitocharge storage systems, when paired with photovoltaic systems, provide even greater self-sufficiency. This is because they provide electricity even when the sun doesn't shine.

Solar energy can also be used for heating. If the system technology includes solar thermal energy, the energy generated can be used for domestic hot water and for combined backup central heating. Combining storage systems with Vitosol solar thermal systems also allows for optimal use of thermal energy according to individual requirements.

Viessmann's system technology also enables the combination of renewable and fossil fuels, facilitating the transition to sustainable integrated solutions. In hybrid systems, the innovative Hybrid Pro Control energy manager automatically selects the most efficient operating mode—either a conventional or renewable heat generator—by the control system. The system then operates according to economic or environmental criteria, depending on need.

A competent partner at your side

The building's energy status, the orientation and size of the roof surface, and existing heating equipment are just some of the factors that play a role in selecting the appropriate system technology. Viessmann partners consider all these factors to provide you with personalized advice. They are also reliable partners for financing and government subsidies for energy-efficient system solutions.

Connectivity for easy energy management

The traditional way to control room temperature is by adjusting the thermostat on the radiator . However, Viessmann's system technology is distinguished by its connectivity. This allows all components of the complete system to be connected via the internet and controlled via an app. But connectivity doesn't just improve ease of use. New energy management features help identify and exploit potential savings. If your trusted installer has access, they receive notifications directly via the service app and can quickly optimize operation. The following video, using the new Vitocal with photovoltaics and energy storage, demonstrates how seamlessly the individual components interact thanks to the digital network:

Convenient system control via the app

Once connected to the network, Viessmann ViCare offers innovative control options—no matter where you are. The app can be used, for example, to create customized heating schedules and monitor consumption and room climate. The app also allows you to use Viessmann One Base , a platform that integrates all Viessmann appliances and smart home solutions. The app's integrated energy management feature allows you to visualize energy flows in your home—from self-generated solar energy and battery charge status to self-consumption. This makes saving energy even easier.

The advantages of Viessmann ViCare at a glance

The standard control unit also offers a wide range of functions

With Vitoconnect, Viessmann appliances that don't yet have a built-in web interface can be controlled via an app. Vitoconnect connects directly to the Vitotronic control unit. However, the latter allows for comprehensive and intuitive control of small boilers, wall-mounted appliances, mid-sized boilers, and heat pumps, even without an internet connection. For the Vitotronic 200/300, this is achieved through features such as:

Control programs for systems of any size

From single-boiler systems to multi-boiler systems with a central distribution unit, Viessmann offers perfectly coordinated solutions. The Vitotronic control system with communication capabilities is an electronic control system for economical and reliable heating system operation. It sets the standard for installation, operation, and maintenance.

Expand and optimize - accessories for complex systems

Viessmann creates optimal technical conditions for integration into new and existing complete solutions. This means that heat generators and components such as photovoltaic and solar panels, storage devices, and accessories can be easily added to optimize the overall system. In addition to high-quality Viessmann products, we also offer system components from other renowned manufacturers with the Vitoset accessory range. This includes:

Solar thermal and photovoltaic energy

Solar thermal energy

Solar thermal systems for hot water heating and backup central heating

Underfloor heating

Viessmann underfloor heating systems – energy savings, safety, convenience and everything from a single source.

Hot water softening systems

Protect water pipes and connected components from calcification.

Fuel oil tanks

They meet all requirements for economical, compact and uninterrupted fuel storage.

Fast and hygienic heating of hot water

Water heaters provide a reliable supply of hot water or act as intermediate heat storage for heating systems and solar thermal systems. This not only improves convenience for residents but also enhances the system's energy efficiency. After all, the heat already captured isn't simply lost but can be used later. With the Vitocell line of water heaters, Viessmann offers the right cylindrical solution for every need. For fast and hygienic hot water heating, a range of Viessmann freshwater modules is available in combination with water heating buffer cylinders.

Hot water supply cylinders

In the Vitocell cylinder range you will find the DHW cylinder that suits your requirements.

Convenient and hygienic hot water heating based on the principle of instantaneous water heating

Maximum use of thermal energy

Viessmann heat exchangers are particularly efficient at transferring thermal energy. They are used in a wide range of applications:

Renting system technologies instead of buying them

Purchasing innovative integrated solutions always entails investment costs. For those who shy away from such investments, this doesn't mean they have to make do without the latest technology. Viessmann Strom and Viessmann Wärme offer an alternative.

Viessmann Warme: Simply rent a new heat pump, gas, or oil condensing heating system. Various heating packages allow you to tailor the system to your individual needs. Heating system maintenance and repairs are always included in the monthly costs.

Viessmann Strom: Rental of a new photovoltaic system and additional components, such as energy storage units, wall units, and heat pumps. The all-inclusive support package includes a full warranty, insurance, maintenance, repairs, and administrative services.

A systems approach to sustainable energy supply

With the ViShare energy community, you become part of an even larger system that works together to advance the energy transition. It allows you to contribute electricity generated by your photovoltaic systems or fuel cells to the community and purchase 100% green electricity from them if your own production is insufficient. However, you don't have to generate your own electricity to become part of the ViShare energy community. You can also purchase green electricity for household use and heating at appropriate rates if your complete Viessmann system doesn't include any power-generating components.
