Ecotec plus 832 with SensoHome/SensoNet

[ScottishGasMan]

Glad to hear its all working. Don't worry if the sensoAPP seems a bit sluggish to use, everyone is being moved over to the MyVaillant app bit by bit, and it runs through different servers etc which are quicker. You don't need to do anything, you'll get an email when there ready to move you, download app, enter code, and let sensonet do a firmware update and youll be good to go.

Sorry to hijack your thread, but can I please ask :
1-the outside temp sensor will save money or not
2- the only place to install it in my case will be under the bathroom window as I m on the 2nd floor.
I have a Vaillant Ecotec pro 28 + a sensohome_vrt_380f and looking for a glow external temp sensor.
Kind regards

@ScottishGasMan will have a more valid opinion than me, but I think that sensohome is great but you don't fully utilise it without an external sensor. there are definitely some savings to be made with weather compensation but the first few days will be a trial as you'll try to set up the heat curve (started from 1.8 and I am now in 1.5, I may try even lower if it doesn't change with adaptive heat curve).

Place it as far as possible from a window and you should be ok, preference is for shadowy northerly looking wall.

Glow warm is working, ignore any faults it may give you the first day.

I am on the last floor and only with scaffolding i can install it properly, I was thinking to fix it on the flashing under the bathroom window.
I will go tomorrow and get one from city plumbing, worst case I can return it.

Yes I believe thats the plan, The 700s will probably get moved over a bit further down the line.
