Requirements: How to ensure the efficient operation of a rented heat pump

To ensure efficient operation of a heat pump, the first step is to create the necessary framework conditions. If you rent a heat generator that matches your home’s energy rating, you will benefit from the new heat pump’s advantages. Requirements include adequate thermal insulation and appropriately sized radiators (heating surfaces). To clarify these requirements in advance, homeowners are advised to contact their chosen heating system installer. If the necessary conditions are not met, for example in an older building, it may be worthwhile to consult with a heating contractor to upgrade the energy system and create the appropriate conditions for the new heat pump. Heating contractors offer extensive consultation on this matter, as it is in the interests of both parties that the new heat pump operates optimally. Below are some prerequisites to consider:

Key Points to Consider Before Signing a Contract

A new heat generator requires careful planning, whether purchasing or, as in this case, renting. As with a regular purchase, the right contact is the heating system installer.

This can be done quickly and without obligation on the ” Consultations” page . Viessmann service representatives will contact you promptly after submitting your request and connect you with the appropriate Viessmann sales partner.

Heat Pump Rental: Keeping Costs Under Control

Your monthly payments will be calculated based on the cost of the new heat generator you’re leasing. As a consumer, there’s no cost to purchase a new heat pump, and there are no upfront payments. Further arrangements, such as the contract term and included services, are based on the installer’s quote. The sales partner preparing your quote will also explain how your monthly payment is calculated. The following factors may affect your rental payment:

• Heated area
• Annual electricity consumption
• Additional services (e.g. individual room control via app)
