Vaillant sensoCOMFORT
Smart Heating Control for Multi-Zone Systems
Works with Vaillant's heat pump range ♨️
Introduction
The sensoCOMFORT is Vaillant's advanced control for multi-zone heating systems. Designed for ease of installation and use, it operates via Vaillant's proprietary eBUS protocol, ensuring seamless communication between system components for optimal performance. It is ideal for multi-zone gas-fuelled, hybrid, or renewable heating installations.
The system features guided commissioning that automatically detects components and suggests pre-defined settings to optimize heating, simplifying installation and saving time. Its simplified interface makes it intuitive for users. Time programs can be set up quickly. With the myVAILLANT connect internet gateway, the myVAILLANT app allows for convenient remote management of heating and hot water ?.
The sensoCOMFORT includes an energy dashboard ? providing insights into energy consumption over two years, including renewable energy gain when paired with a Vaillant heat pump.
For weather compensation, an outdoor sensor ☀️ is included, which automatically adjusts boiler flow rate for maximum efficiency.
The wireless (RF) version supports up to three heating zones. The system can also cascade up to seven boilers, making it suitable for larger commercial installations.
