  2. Thermostatic radiator valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermostatic_radiator_valve

    The replacement of a manual heating control with a conventional wax motor TRV has been estimated to save at least 280 kilograms (620 lb) of CO 2 per year (in 2011 for a British semi-detached house with 3 bedrooms and gas heating [1]). They are also considerably cost-efficient, using heat only when needed, and can reduce heating bills by up to ...

  3. Weather compensation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weather_compensation

    Weather compensation is a technique for adjusting heating systems to reflect the outside weather, using weather compensation controls. [ 1 ] If the outside temperature drops, it will increase the temperature of the heating medium (typically, water or air) in the heating system.

    Danfoss is a Danish multinational company, based in Denmark, with more than 41,928 employees globally. Danfoss was founded in 1933 by engineer Mads Clausen. [1] Danfoss headquarters in Nordborg, Denmark Cutaway model of Danfoss's first automatic valve

  5. HVAC control system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HVAC_control_system

    HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) equipment needs a control system to regulate the operation of a heating and/or air conditioning system. [1] Usually a sensing device is used to compare the actual state (e.g. temperature) with a target state. Then the control system draws a conclusion what action has to be taken (e.g. start the ...

  6. Condensing boiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condensing_boiler

    Condensing boilers are water heaters typically used for heating systems that are fueled by gas or oil. When operated in the correct circumstances, a heating system can achieve high efficiency (greater than 90% on the higher heating value) by condensing water vapour found in the exhaust gases in a heat exchanger to preheat the circulating water.

  7. Thermostat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermostat

    A thermostat exerts control by switching heating or cooling devices on or off, or by regulating the flow of a heat transfer fluid as needed, to maintain the correct temperature. A thermostat can often be the main control unit for a heating or cooling system, in applications ranging from ambient air control to automotive coolant control.

  8. Danfoss Compressors GmbH - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danfoss_Compressors_GmbH

    Danfoss Compressors GmbH was a subsidiary of the Danfoss Group, a Danish manufacturer of valves and fluid-handling products, from 1956 to 2010. It produced hermetic compressors for household appliances and mobile cooling.

  9. Central heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_heating

    A central heating system has a furnace that converts fuel or electricity to heat through processes. The heat is circulated through the building either by fans forcing heated air through ducts, circulation of low-pressure steam to radiators in each heated room, or pumps that circulate hot water through room radiators.
