Heat exchange units are a key component of heating networks and are used to distribute hot water through a network of insulated pipes from a centralized heat source to each individual dwelling. They will usually fulfil heating and hot water requirements in residential buildings such as apartment complexes. Installing heat interface units as part of a district heating system has the following benefits:
- Reduced energy costs
- Low carbon heat source
- Reduced maintenance costs
- Increased comfort
