What the VR940f does

On its own, none of the Vaillant senso thermostats communicate with a phone. The VR940f is the bridge: it plugs into the boiler’s CIM port and your home network, then connects the existing control to the myVAILLANT cloud. From there, the homeowner gets scheduling via the app, a live energy dashboard, geofencing and holiday mode controls, and voice control via Amazon Alexa and Apple HomeKit. The gateway doesn’t change how the thermostat or boiler operate it just adds a remote control layer on top of the existing eBUS modulating control.

Key features

• Remote control, scheduling and energy dashboard via myVAILLANT app (iOS and Android)
• Amazon Alexa and Apple HomeKit compatible
• Single cable to CIM port on current ecoTEC plus no separate power supply needed
• Retrofits to any existing senso control or VRC700 without replacing the thermostat
• Free Vaillant Smart Home subscription included
• Compatible with sensoROOM pure, sensoROOM, sensoHOME, sensoCOMFORT, VRC700
• For pre-2018 eBUS boilers, pair with VRA42 power adaptor board (sold separately)

myVAILLANT connect vs sensoNET which gateway?

There are two Vaillant gateways currently available. The VR940f (this product) is the current gateway and uses the myVAILLANT app. The older sensoNET (VR921) uses the separate sensoAPP and is only required if the installation includes ambiSENSE smart radiator valves. For any new installation without ambiSENSE, the VR940f is the correct choice.
