Building technology explained in simple terms
Portable air conditioners gain importance as summers get hotter. In this article you will find everything you need to know about portable air conditioners. You will find, for example:
Hydronic balancing is the bugbear for many craftsmen and it is often claimed that hydronic balancing in existing buildings is not worthwhile.
The main argument: all the data needed for the calculation is missing. However, there is good news: The simplified calculation method for hydronic balancing is based on assumptions, and convinces with excellent results.
In this series you will learn how to do a hydronic balancing yourself using the simplified calculation method and reduce your heating bill by up to 13 %.
[Read more…] about Hydronic Balancing DIY – Step 1: FundamentalsI admit, I’m a little unsure and excited right now about whether I should really hit the “publish” button. I’m writing a book about building services and I can feel the roller coaster of emotions starting again. Writing a book sounds interesting – many people do it – but I’ve never done it before.

[Read more…] about Hydronic Balancing DIY – Example on a Detached HouseIn this article I will introduce you to gravity hot water heating. Gravity hot water heating is a heating system based on the physical principle of gravity and works due to the change in density of water. Thus, gravity heating does not require electrical energy for a circulating pump (as in a heating system with circulating pump) and works solely based on the physical properties of water.
