Useful information: The VRC700f uses weather compensation to modulate the heating system in response to outdoor conditions. As outside temperatures fall, it can increase heat delivery, as conditions improve, it can reduce output to avoid unnecessary energy use.

Compatibility note: This control is intended for use with Vaillant heating appliances via an eBUS interface. The wireless outdoor temperature sensor and radio receiver should be positioned where radio signal strength is sufficient. Installation, commissioning and electrical connections must be carried out by a competent, qualified person.

Model identification: The listing reference for this product is 0020259829.
