Heat interface units

Central fresh hot water stations heat domestic hot water in a central heating system and distribute it to the tap points through a hot water and circulation pipe. A heating buffer cylinder supplies the necessary heating water to produce hot water as needed. Since there is no storage of domestic hot water, it is heated only on demand. However, energy consumption is higher compared to decentralized systems.

Decentralised stations are characterised by their energy-efficient performance. They only produce the hot water required, minimising energy costs, and can be easily combined with renewable energy sources.Uponor’s Heat Interface Units offer a high degree of customisation and prefabrication, resulting in greater efficiency and quality on the construction sites of decentralised systems. This reduces installation time / costs and material requirements and significantly shortens building time. All processes, from planning to implementation, can be streamlined and accelerated, especially in the event of supply chain disruptions and skilled labour shortages.

By eliminating the stagnation of hot water in the decentralised systems and reducing the overall water volume, the risk of legionella is significantly reduced, ensuring high-quality drinking water.
