New install, Vaillant boiler

Post by 1animal1 »

Hi, having fitted a full evohome system before using opentherm and underfloor, having moved into a new build recently, I've decided to fit it again.

I have a Valiant ecotec boiler which is quite far away from the cylinder. The set up is a 2 zone plus HW, so 3 zone valves. My plan is to remove the upstairs zone stat and fit the evohome controller in the position of the down stairs zone stat. I will be following the Y plan wiring schematic.

Couple of questions...

The Vaillant boiler I understand has a pump live feed, so in the wiring I'll connect the pump live to that.

The boiler also has the full mains plus an RT connection, which I presume is the switched live for the above circuit? The main live fitted as permanent.

Also, I presume I'm fine wiring the two heating zone valves together.

Thanks

Tim

Hi Tim,

Why would you follow the Y Plan diagram, if you have S Plan Plus?

Best diagram to use when using smart TRV's is page 46 of the latest evohome installation guide.
