Underfloor heating and cooling system specialist Warmafloor has launched a new heating interface unit (HIU) for district heating applications.
Featuring a four-option control bypass the new Calefa HIU is claimed to be the most efficient unit available on the market, confirmed by independent BESA testing.
When switched to auto mode, the smart system monitors and learns usage patterns in the home, helping to ensure that hot water will always be available at key usage times, while reducing overall energy consumption. The unit can also be linked to Warmafloor’s underfloor heating control system, Sentio, allowing for app–based domestic hot water control.
Jonathan Moran, business development manager at Warmafloor, says: “After 2025, new developments in the UK will either need to use electric or district heating, and because not all grids will be able to cope with such a spike in electricity output, the market for district heating is set to rocket.”
