Vitocal 242-G

Vitocal 242-G is fully prepared for solar operation. Operating the compact appliance is extremely easy thanks to the Vitotronic control unit.
With the Vitocal 242-G, the connections for a solar thermal system are already in place, with the required hydraulic connections and the control unit integrated. A 220 l solar cylinder and a Solar Control unit enable high solar yields to be achieved.
The powerful collectors and matching system components from Viessmann back up the heat pump meaning in an average year, 50 to 60 percent of energy usually spent on DHW heating can be saved.
Like all compact appliances, the Vitocal 242-G is also equipped with the extremely user friendly Vitotronic control unit. If in doubt, help is available at the push of a button. The graphic interface will also display heating curves and switching times.
The sound-optimised appliance design makes these compact heat pumps particularly quiet so that they can even be installed close to the living space.
The compact heat pumps can provide a pleasant climate in a low energy house, even on hot summer days. The natural cooling function brings cool underground temperatures into the home. For this, the Viessmann NC-Box is required as an accessory.
Clear, comfortable, intelligent: The Vitotronic offers perfect functions for fast and exact control of every heating system.
Control Vitotronic 200 - Can also be operated using an app via a smartphone at any time.
The Vitoconnect 100 interface is required for operation via the app. Retrofitting earlier heat pumps of the Vitocal series (from year of construction 2010) is possible at any time.
The ViCare app enables system users to control their heating system via smartphone. The operating status can be viewed at any time and the contractor whose details have been stored in the app can be contacted quickly and easily if a fault occurs.
The Vitotrol Plus app enables remote control of all heating circuits in a heating system. It is used to configure operating programs, set values and time programs and display operating and consumption data. It also indicates solar yields.
'The whole is greater than the sum of its parts'. Following this philosophy, Viessmann supplies more than high quality, reliable and effective heating components. In fact, all products are part of a matching total concept, where all components complement one another. After all, only perfect interaction between all system components can draw out the maximum potential of our innovative leading technology.
Viessmann system technology incorporates everything you need for a reliable and economical heating system: From the Vitotronic control unit with wireless remote control, powerful Vitocell DHW cylinders for the highest DHW convenience, right up to high grade solar thermal systems for cost effective central heating backup.
