Viessmann Climate Solutions, based in Allendorf (Eder), Germany, was founded in 1917 as a heating technology manufacturer and has been part of Carrier Global Corporation since January 2024. Its Vitocal heat pump range covers R290 monoblock air-to-water units (Vitocal 150-A, 250-A, 200-A ie), R32 split units (Vitocal 200-S, 222-S), brine and water-to-water units (Vitocal 222-G, 300-G, 350-G) and domestic hot water heat pumps (Vitocal 060-A, 262-A).

Viessmann in Zerofy

Beta

Zerofy reads Viessmann heat pumps through the manufacturer's cloud (ViCare), with the account the heat pump is already registered with. Autopilot then moves heat into the building and the hot water tank when your own solar power is available or the electricity price is low.

Viessmann Air-to-water monoblock

The whole refrigerant circuit sits in one outdoor unit; only water pipes run into the house. The most common choice for retrofits, because no refrigerant lines need to be installed inside.

Viessmann Air-to-water split

An outdoor unit plus an indoor hydraulic station, joined by refrigerant lines. The pipework inside the house stays frost-free without glycol, and the indoor part is often quieter to place.

Viessmann Ground-source (brine/water)

Draws heat from a borehole or ground loop, so the source stays at a steady temperature all winter. Higher efficiency and no outdoor noise, but boreholes cost money and need a permit.

Viessmann Hot water heat pumps

A small heat pump built onto a hot water tank. It heats drinking water only and is a good way to turn surplus solar into stored heat – or to add hot water to a house that is otherwise heated differently.

Heating output is the figure in the manufacturer's datasheet; the basis (nominal output at A7/W35 or B0/W35, or design heat load) differs between brands, so check the datasheet before comparing. * = design heat load Pdesignh at 35 °C from the BAFA portal.

SG Ready is a label of the Bundesverband Wärmepumpe (BWP) e.V.; “Yes” means the manufacturer documents the two-input interface or declares it on the BAFA portal, not that the series carries the BWP label – the label list is at waermepumpe.de. EEBUS is a standard of the EEBus Initiative e.V.; Modbus is a registered trademark of Schneider Electric, licensed to the Modbus Organization. Product names, logos and photos belong to their manufacturers and are shown to identify the products. Grant data: BAFA Wärmeerzeuger-Portal and Lista ZUM (IOŚ-PIB) as of the dates shown; the SCOP at 55 °C in the BAFA tables is calculated by Zerofy from the portal's ηs value.
