What do the Readers say?
“Hello Mr Schlobach, why did I come across this page so late? I want to switch to a heat pump and need a reliable heat load calculation, hydraulic balancing and radiator dimensioning. Exactly what you explain here step by step and in an easy-to-follow manner. Thank you very much for the effort, your site is a great help – and saves a lot of money compared to the engineering office with sufficient accuracy”
“Hello Martin,
I just wanted to say thank you for your blog on the subject of “hydronic balancing”! I’ve spent the last two weekends looking into the subject and your blog in particular and have adjusted all the valves and the heating pump, as our gas consumption has been very high so far. Without your article, I wouldn’t have dared to do it myself, but with the description it worked really well. Many thanks! Best regards, Stefan”
“Hello Martin,
We also decided in favour of the eQ-3 radiator thermostat with Bluetooth and are totally satisfied with it. Thanks to your very good test reports, we decided to go for it. Best regards
