Matching underfloor heating systems, balance valves, actuators, room thermostats and connecting modules work together to create the optimum room climate for individual requirements. The selection of high quality products covers all requirements in the field of heating and cooling distribution.

COMFORT AND ENERGY EFFICIENCY WITH UNDERFLOOR HEATING SYSTEMS

Comfort and energy efficiency are key in any modern heating system and provide convincing arguments why a panel heating system is the first choice for home owners and investors alike.

 

PANEL HEATING SYSTEMS ARE PART OF MODERN ENERGY SYSTEMS

Whether they are used in private homes or open-plan office buildings, low-temperature heating systems offer cozy comfort as well as excellent conditions for using renewable energies and the energy-efficient use of modern heating systems, such as calorific heating systems or heat pumps. When combined with low temperature heat generation, a panel heating system produces a modern, energy-efficient heating system.

 

REGULATION OF PANEL HEATING SYSTEMS

Underfloor heating systems require a precise regulation of the flow rate in the individual heating circuits because low temperature panel heating and high temperature heating systems are slow to respond to adjustments.
This response to regulation is largely influenced by the hydronic characteristics of panel heating systems:

  • The entire floor or wall surface is used to transmit the heat
  • The heat is distributed by means of numerous heating circuits, consisting of long lengths of narrow gauge piping
  • The heat is transmitted at a low temperature and with low-level spread

 

LINK FOR HEAT DISTRIBUTION

Together with the relevant regulators, such as shutoff values and actuators, the heating circuit distributor is thus an important link between the heat generator and the panel heating system and ensures an even level of heat throughout the property.

 

BALANCING THE SYSTEM HYDRONICS

During commissioning it is important to balance the system hydronics so that all heat consumers are supplied with hot water in line with their heat requirements.
In the main distribution system the hot water volume flow is limited by means of hydronic balancing to the flow rates that correspond to the calculated heat output in the various sections of the building.

 

FOCUSED DISTRIBUTION FOR INDIVIDUAL HEATING CIRCUITS

In order to achieve the required room temperatures within one floor of a building, the flow rates for the relevant heating circuits in underfloor heating systems are also regulated.
TopMeter balancing valves make it possible to precisely adjust and immediately check the flow rate: the rate can be adjusted and checked on the flow and return bars of the heating circuit distributor in liters per minute.
This makes it possible to regulate a panel heating system centrally by means of the heating circuit distributor and to achieve this on several heating circuits simultaneously, reducing the expenditure of time. The integrated memory function in the newly developed TopMeter Plus balancing valve allows the last flow rate setting to be reproduced even following shutoff of the flow.

 

FIRST CHOICE

The simple and efficient operation with the TopMeter means that installation companies can avoid costly adjustments. This makes the TopMeter from Taconova the first choice for regulating distribution systems.
