A lot of components are needed to heat a building. Boilers, pumps and radiators are probably the most obvious ones that spring to mind, yet the piping system and the many different kinds of valves installed in it also play a vital part. 

Air conditioning and cold water applications comprise anything that serves to dissipate the heat loss from technical components into the atmosphere – and prevent these components from overheating.

District heat is produced mainly by cogeneration in large power plants, small combined heat and power (CHP) plants, waste incineration plants or district heating plants. It can be generated using fossil fuels or fuels from renewable resources as well as from waste heat, and it represents an important instrument for achieving climate protection targets in the framework of the energy turnaround. Cogeneration using combined heat and power enables energy to be utilised in an environmentally...

Energy – an increasingly valuable resource from year to year – is used by the manufacturing industry in the form of heat, for example to heat products or for evaporation processes, sterilisation, blanching fruit and vegetables or distilling crude oil.
