Vaillant × CheckYout: your heating knows when the guest has left

Guest checks out, your heating knows: your Vaillant switches to away mode. Hours less heating per turnover — before the next arrival it warms back up in time.

In the Pro plan — CHF 9.90/month

Widespread in DACH

Vaillant heating systems are common in vacation rentals across Germany, Austria and Switzerland. CheckYout supports vSMART, eRELAX and ambiSENSE.

Lower energy costs

Empty rentals don’t need a flow temperature. Depending on the system and vacancy, that’s hours less heating per month — visible on the electricity bill if you run a heat pump.

Simple setup

Enter Vaillant credentials once, assign thermostats to properties. About 5 minutes.

Secure

Your Vaillant password is discarded immediately after connection. CheckYout only stores the API token — securely in your account.

Heat-pump setup

With a Vaillant heat pump (aroTHERM, flexoTHERM, recoCOMPACT), away mode pays off more: electricity instead of gas, every empty hour costs visibly.

How it works

1

Enter your myVAILLANT or vSMART login once in CheckYout (only the API token is stored)

2

Check-out detected — thermostat switches to away mode

3

Before the next arrival it warms back up (6-hour pre-heat, configurable — with PMS)

Compatible thermostats

Vaillant vSMART
Vaillant eRELAX
Vaillant ambiSENSE

You log in with your myVAILLANT or vSMART account — whichever app you use on your phone.

07:30 Uhr

Vaillant switches to away mode

Only if no arrival is planned on the same day

On arrival days, Vaillant pre-heats 6 h before check-in

08:00 Uhr

Cleaning team arrives (about 30 min drive)

ca. 10:30 Uhr

Cleaning complete, host is notified

ca. 11:00 Uhr

Cleaning team starts the next job

3 h earlier

More properties per day, especially in high season

ab 14:00 Uhr

Next guest can check in

2 h earlier

Instead of the default 4 PM check-in

Every hour counts in high season. Many cleaning businesses handle 5 to 10 holiday rentals a day. Starting earlier thanks to CheckYout means more properties done and more predictable cleanings for the host.

Pre-heating requires a connected PMS.

How do I automate my Vaillant heating for vacation rentals?

CheckYout connects to your myVAILLANT or vSMART account and switches to away mode at check-out. Before the next arrival the system pre-heats in time — lead time configurable, with a connected PMS.

Which Vaillant thermostats are supported?

All Vaillant thermostats that work with the vSMART, eRELAX or myVAILLANT app: vSMART, eRELAX and ambiSENSE. You sign in with the account you already use on your phone — regardless of which of the three apps.

How much can I save with a Vaillant heat pump?

With a heat pump (aroTHERM, flexoTHERM, recoCOMPACT) away mode pays off clearly: electricity instead of gas, every empty hour costs visibly. In typical vacation rentals CheckYout Pro pays for itself after the first heating season.

How do I connect myVAILLANT with CheckYout?

You enter your myVAILLANT or vSMART login once in CheckYout. After authentication, the password is discarded immediately — only the API token is stored. Then you assign thermostats to your properties.

Does it also work with gas boilers?

Yes. Away mode acts on the thermostat, not on the heat source — whether it’s a heat pump, gas condensing boiler or pellet boiler. With a gas boiler the hourly saving is smaller than with a heat pump, but it still adds up.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about the Vaillant integration

Is my Vaillant password stored?

No. Your login is used once to establish the connection and then discarded. What is stored is only the technical token that lets CheckYout temporarily control the thermostat. You can revoke access at any time from your Vaillant account.

What happens if I have several Vaillant thermostats?

For each property you pick which thermostat should react to the check-out. One sign per property, one thermostat per sign.

Can I set the eco-mode target temperature myself?

Yes. In the integration settings you set, per property, the target temperature for eco mode at check-out, as well as the warm-up temperature before the next check-in. The values stay in place until you change them.

Multiple properties? Each connected individually.

Do you have your own Vaillant thermostat in every property? Each one is assigned individually to its property. Each property has its own temperature profiles and preheat times.

  • One CheckYout account covers your whole portfolio
  • Per property, a dedicated assignment — thermostat, zone, temperature profile
  • Configurations don’t interfere with each other

No more heating for empty rentals

5-minute setup. With a heat pump, CheckYout Pro pays for itself after the first heating season.
