Is the Viessmann Vitodens 200-W 19kW a system boiler, a combi boiler or a regular boiler?

The Viessmann Vitodens 200-W 19kW is a system boiler you may wish to consider if you want this particular type of boiler for your house or flat.

System boilers share many similarities with more traditional heat only boilers, like the need to program the times you want them to provide you with heat and hot water - just use the control panel to do this.

Where they differ from regular boilers is that they do not require a separate cold-water tank - everything is done within the hot water cylinder, which contains built-in circulating pumps. This makes them easier to install as there is one less component to fit and makes them more suitable for properties with no loft space, smaller lofts or for homeowners who are considering converting their loft.

As long as you have programmed your system boiler in advance, you will have the hot water you need ready for whenever you want to use it. Once the water is heated, it will remain available, warm, inside the tank until it’s all used up. It will then draw more water from the mains to start heating so that it can provide heat and hot water for the times you've told the system boiler you need it.

Is the Viessmann Vitodens 200-W 19kW system boiler the right choice for my house or apartment?

Whether this Viessmann Vitodens 200-W 19kW System boiler is right for where you live depends on its size or "output" level. Size does not mean its physical dimensions - it means how powerful it is.

The output level of a boiler tells you how much power it has to heat the water coming from your taps and warming up your radiators. The higher the output level, the greater the volume of water it can heat up.

If the output (measured in kilowatts) is too high, you'll pay higher gas bills and your water will be piping hot. Too low and the water coming out of your taps and being fed into your radiators will often be lukewarm.

The Viessmann Vitodens 200-W 19kW system outputs at a maximum of 19 kW, so which types of property would this Viessmann Vitodens 200-W 19kW System boiler be appropriate for?
