Homematic IP: Hydraulic balancing is key to making your heating system more efficient
Hydraulic balancing ensures that all radiators and underfloor heating circuits are supplied with heat evenly. In technical terms, this means that each room receives exactly the amount of water it needs, providing the appropriate heating output. This prevents common issues, such as rooms near the boiler overheating or radiators at the end of the heating […]
PFAS-free fire extinguishers: Why the switch is becoming relevant now
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS for short, are increasingly the focus of regulation and environmental assessment. For decades, fluorinated firefighting foams were considered to be technically proven. However, new EU regulations are accelerating the phase-out of these extinguishing agents. Now that the European legislative process has concluded, binding deadlines for the end of PFAS-containing […]
