A closed heating system is a system in which the coolant (water or other working agent) circulates in a sealed circuit without direct contact with the atmosphere. In such a system, water is heated in a boiler or other heat generator and then moves through pipes through radiators, heated floors or other heating devices, giving off heat to the premises. After this, the coolant returns back […]

A boiler microcontroller is a specialized electronic device used to automate and control the functions of a heating boiler. It performs tasks to control, regulate and monitor the operation of the boiler, ensuring its efficient and safe operation. If you want to automate the heating, this can be done using a buffer tank and a weather controller (similar to a microcontroller, but controlling the secondary heating […]

Hydronic heating is a heating system in which heat is transferred using water circulating through pipes or radiators. Water heated in a boiler or other heat generator transfers its heat to the rooms through radiators, convectors or underfloor heating. The main components of hydronic heating are: Boiler or heat generator: Heats the water to the required temperature. Depending on the type of fuel (gas, oil, […]

Steam heating is a heating system that transfers heat via steam circulating through pipes and radiators. In steam heating, water in a boiler or other heat generator is heated to its boiling point, turns into steam, and then flows to radiators where it releases its heat into the room. The main components of steam heating are: Boiler: Heats water until it turns into steam. […]

The weather algorithm is a heating control system that adapts the operation of the heating system depending on external weather conditions. The main goal of the weather algorithm is to maintain an optimal temperature in the premises and save energy by taking into account changes in the outside air temperature. The main aspects of the weather algorithm are: Measuring the outside temperature: The weather algorithm uses the outside temperature sensor to determine the current weather conditions. […]

A movable grate is a structural element of a solid fuel boiler combustion chamber that ensures efficient fuel combustion and easy removal of ash residues. The grate is a grate installed at the bottom of the combustion chamber through which air passes to maintain combustion and remove ash. The main characteristics and functions of a movable grate: Design: A movable grate consists of a number of horizontally located grates or […]

A mixing unit is a component of a heating system designed to regulate the temperature of the coolant supplied to the underfloor heating circuit or other low-temperature heating systems. The mixing unit mixes the hot coolant from the boiler with the cooled coolant returning from the heating circuit to achieve the required supply temperature. The main components of the mixing unit are: Three-way or four-way valve: Controls the flow of hot and cooled coolant, […]

TEN (Tubular Electric Heater) is an electric heating element widely used in buffer tanks of heating systems to provide additional or backup heating of the coolant. The TEN is a metal tube with a high-resistance conductor running inside it, which heats up when an electric current passes through it. This coolant transfers heat to the environment through the walls of the tube. Functions of the TEN in a buffer tank: Additional heating: […]

A boiler heating circuit is a part of a heating system that includes a boiler and a circulation pump that ensures the movement of the coolant from the boiler to the radiators or other heating devices and back. The boiler circuit can be independent (closed) or part of a more complex system with several circuits and heat exchangers. Main functions: Heat generation: The boiler heats the coolant (water or antifreeze), […]

Metal-plastic pipes for heating are pipes consisting of several layers of different materials, combining the advantages of metal and plastic. They are widely used in heating systems due to their excellent performance characteristics, reliability and durability. You can choose other types of pipes for heating depending on the installed equipment. Metal-plastic pipes for heating: design Inner layer - made of cross-linked […]
