OPTIMISE YOUR HOME'S HEATING What Is Weather Compensation?

Weather compensation is a technology found in smart heating controls that uses weather live data to fine-tune your heating. By adjusting the heating output based on the outdoor temperature, weather compensation ensures that your home remains comfortable while reducing energy consumption.

How Does Weather Compensation Work?

Weather compensation works by using an outdoor sensor or local weather data from the internet to monitor the external temperature. This data is then sent to your heating control, which adjusts the boiler or heat pump’s output accordingly.

On colder days, the system increases the heat output to maintain your desired indoor temperature. In comparison, on milder days, it reduces the heat output, preventing unnecessary energy use.

Let’s see how it can benefit your home.

  • Enhanced Comfort

    Thanks to weather compensation, your control will communicate with your heating system to increase the temperature when it gets colder outside. This means your home should always be a cosy temperature regardless of the weather outside.

  • Energy Efficiency

    By syncing your heating with outdoor temperatures, weather compensation lowers energy use. This can result in reduced bills as your heating system is only working as hard as it needs to.

  • Prolonged System Life

    Constantly adjusting your gas boiler or heat pump’s output to match the outdoor temperature can put a strain on your heating system. Weather compensation can prevent this as there is no real need for you to alter your settings on your control. This can lead to fewer breakdowns and a longer lifespan for your gas boiler or heat pump, saving you money on repairs and replacements.

  • Seamless Integration

    Weather compensation technology integrates seamlessly with Vaillant’s smart controls as we use our own protocol, eBUS. eBUS allows Vaillant products communicate to each other seamlessly, meaning it knows exactly what your heating needs are. Our controls talk to the boiler, making smart decisions beyond just turning it on and off.
