Company halls and workshops, often characterised by large open spaces and high ceilings, present a particular challenge when it comes to installing an energy-efficient, targeted heating system. The ideal heating system for halls must therefore be able to heat the different work areas individually and produce heat at the right height.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Halls and workshops have specific heating requirements due to their size and use. It is therefore essential to carry out a thorough requirements analysis before installing a new heating system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Determine the parameters of the existing installation, e.g. age, general condition, centralised or decentralised system, air exchange, energy consumption and associated costs, etc.:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Identify potential sources of heat that could contribute to space heating, e.g. industrial heat (furnaces, steam, etc.), ventilation systems, compressors (compressed air system), etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Plan heating production using renewable energies, e.g. heat pumps, solar thermal heat, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
