As the 2024 heating season gets underway, Viessmann has announced a package of incentives for installers of its most popular domestic and light commercial boilers, and heat pumps.
From September 1st to December 31st, the free warranty on the Vitodens 050-W and 100-W domestic boilers is increased to 10 and 12 years respectively, when products are registered on the company’s installer portal. An extendable 10-year warranty is also now available with Viessmann Vitocal 150-A and 151-A air source heat pumps (without an expiration date).
Existing Viessmann installers can also benefit from unlimited cashback claims of £150 for every five Vitodens 050-W boilers registered and £300 for every five Vitodens 100-W boilers (claims must be made by January 12th 2025). For installers new to the brand, and subject to the same claim period as above, an incentive payment of up to £500 will be made for their first Viessmann product registered. The welcome payment ranges from £100 for a Vitodens 050-W boiler to £500 for a Vitocal 150-A or 151-A air source heat pump.
Installers of Viessmann’s Vitodens 200-W light commercial boilers (49 or 60 kW) can take advantage of an exclusive £700+ pack discount for each boiler plus connection set (pump and LLH), as well as a new 10-year warranty, when purchased through a merchant and registered via the installer portal.
“Backed by product and integration technology that the market is hungry for, we are taking a very serious market approach this heating season with this targeted package of sales incentives and warranty extensions,” says Chris Johnson, director of sales at Viessmann Climate Solutions UK. “For many consumers, this is the autumn and winter in which they will seriously consider heat pumps as boiler replacements for the first time. It’s a great opportunity for our industry and we stand right behind every installer – whether they’ve worked with our Vitocal heat pumps before or not – to give them a leg-up, not just financially, but with our increasingly popular Viessmann Access MCS umbrella scheme, which takes out much of the hassle associated with the transition to installing heat pumps.”
Easier commissioning
The ‘Viessmann Simplified’ campaign is spearheaded by a new boiler commissioning process, designed with input from UK installers. The whole process should take between 10 and 20 minutes, which includes waiting time for filling and venting, depending on water pressure. The boilers can also be commissioned via Viessmann’s ViGuide App, for mobile or desktop, for which a Viessmann account is required.
“Viessmann has made this UK market-specific product improvement after listening to feedback from installers,” explains Chris Johnson. “The launch of the new Vitodens boiler range in 2021 heralded the introduction of digital boiler commissioning to the industry. The new simplified process – designed specifically for the way in which installers have traditionally commissioned boilers in the UK – means Vitodens boilers are easier than ever to fit, and especially to those new installers we are continuously welcoming to the Viessmann brand.”
