Introducing... our Auto-Balancing Manifold

Monday 26th November 2018




Our new stainless steel manifold features a patented valve which enables automatic flow control, avoiding the risk of oversupplying any rooms and ensuring the system operates with optimum temperature distribution and uses less energy.


Features and Benefits:


• Automatic hydronic balancing - saving time at installation as the flow rate is set by turning the valve with the supplied key
• Control cartridge - ensuring a constant flow rate
• Easily adapted flow rate - able to be adapted to given heating loads, and calculated as part of the free design service
• Optimum temperature distribution
• No excessive surface temperatures
• Energy saving benefits
• Uniform heat output for increased comfort
 

How it works


As circuits open and close the valve adjusts itself to ensure the set flow rate is maintained in each individual circuit. Standard manifolds do not have this feature, meaning as a circuit opens and closes, the flow rates will move from the optimum set rate and oversupply some rooms.
