Vaillant EcoTec Plus 937

Hi, can i use the existing flue i have, my current boiler is also a vailant. Also does this ecotec plus have a built in clock for the heating? also (sorry) does this system come on when the temperature in the house drops for instance below 12 and the heating comes on it self?

thanks

    You can only use the existing flue if it is currently fitted to an Ecomax or Ecotec Plus boiler, otherwise a big NO.

    It does not come with a clock built in and won't come on according to room temp. To do both of these you will need to have a timer and room stat fitted, or a programmable room stat, internal or external.

    In that case it is a definate no.

    I can't really understand what you are asking for a link to.

    It will be best to google whatever you are looking for.
