Another good video Andrew and I am definitely biased when it comes to Viessmann products

I have done it this way quite a few times, I just upsize the tees, It kinda works ok.

It's interesting if you look at CCTs through your infrared camera. You can see the level at which the Tees do not provide hydraulic separation.

I've not seen any love a viessmann more than you. Wowser, what a long term relationship. Anniversary must be coming up. Thanks for sharing your work for us to learn and enjoy

I think anyone that has any good understanding of hydraulic design could not fail but to make the choice for Viessmann every time.

@@andrewmillwardwatford9410 ok so it's mainly hydraulic separation that separates viessmann from the competition.

@@CommercialGasEngineerVideos you can use hydraulic separation on many boilers. But the v200 has superiority about every feature on a boiler.

@@andrewmillwardwatford9410 the main exposure I've had with these boilers was years ago when a viessmann evangelist in Watford told me about them. The man would not install anything other than a viessmann. I reckon he has shares in the company and if not should have. Since then I've probably seen no more than 10. I've seen 3-5 in commercial settings. Vitodens 200w recently. I was quite impressed when technical support video called me. Never seen that before. I don't think Andrewmann boilers haven't made much of a breakthrough in the commercial world as yet. Anyways I'm looking forward to hearing how this boiler beats others in hydraulic separation.

Out of interest what BMS are you using yo control the esbe mixxers? Or is it the boiler?

A v200 can operate 3 mixed and One unmixed circuit. Each mixed circuit requires a control to be added.

Have been using Viessmann now for a about 2 years - full range of boilers from 050/100/200 and now HP’s this year 2no ground source and 2 ASHP with 2 more in the pipeline - great products but you have to work hard to fully understand them Reason for the comment - I’ve always used their divicons never been brave enough to use separate pump & ebse mixers due to I might be longer wiring than plumbing - how about a video on the wiring or are you keeping that a trade secret 😉

The wiring of these is covered on a video I made a while ago. The wiring process is exceptionally easy so next time save yourself a fortune and try it with the esbe mixers

Hi Andrew another lovely install! Are those non return valves on all three of the returns?

@andrewmillwardwatford9410

Yes so much of the Returns to prevent backflow in case of any pump being inactive. Interestingly on the pre-built pumping stations the non-return valve is on the return on the secondary side, I can't see the point in this but on the vaisman schematic it is clearly showing in the position I have placed it in this job. I have on different jobs placed non-return valves in different locations and I'm not sure if I've got this correct every time

Hi andrew.. sorry if i sound stupid here. You have 3 pumps running off the close coupled tee. Would they not be fighting against each other? Is it more beneficial with 3 individual pumps on each circuit rather than 1 decent sized pump? Love the videos! Very intresting stuff.

@andrewmillwardwatford9410

These pumps are after each mixer. You can't place the pump the other side.

Those two grey plastic pipes on the left with the plastic 90s spoil the look.😉

Andrew, this might be a daft question but I have the submount mixer on my 200W, the unmixed radiator circuit suffers from poor control and bedrooms too hot at night.setback. If I could rearrange the pipes on the submount to give me a second flow and return off the plate hx for a second mixed circuit, would it be necessary to retain a unmixed circuit off the boiler F&R?

It may be better to use the mixed circuit for the radiators underfloor heating. This is especially true if you still have room stats and actuators fitted to your underfloor heating system

So run the UFH on the unmixed circuit? How does that work when generally rads run at higher flow temps? Also when generally the boiler flow temp is set (differential) to give a higher temp than the mixed circuit?

@@SkellyMr a lot of the answers I need to give would end up in me writing a book. I encourage people to call me when an answer is potentially very long as a few minutes on a telephone call can transfer so much more information than text. If you Google my name you will get through to my company and they can put you in touch with me. But the basic principle is that the flow temperature required at the mixer for the underfloor heating is likely to be very close to the radiator flow temperature or higher. Also most underfloor heating systems are still being fitted with room thermostats and actuators. So underfloor heating fitted with actuators can tolerate a slightly higher flow temperature without any significant negative impact what radiators circuits are unlikely to be controlled in the same way. Although thermostatic radiator valves can be used to limit the maximum temperature of a room it is a pain to have to turn them down at night and up in the morning rather than to use the programmed profile on the boiler.
