Heating Controls | Weather Compensation

Weather CompensationA weather compensation unit is a beneficial addition to your heating system; through outdoor temperature measurement the controller varies the water temperature delivered into the heating system. This manages the air temperatures of the building and can also give you a reduction in energy consumption due to the lower water temperatures from efficient system management. The flow temperature is always matched to the heating requirements of the building at all times therefore the underfloor heating system does not over or under heat as can happen with a fixed water flow temperature system.
