For the owners of single-family houses, Makroterm has developed an innovative system of heating and air conditioning, as well as domestic hot water supply, based on optimally combining renewable and conventional energy sources. It ensures a standardized, quick installation, low operating costs, and optimum performance of the entire system. Consolidation of distributed energy sources into one system allows households to save energy, improves home comfort and energy security through diversification of sources of heat.
Makroterm offers an integrated heating and cooling solution for your home. It uses solar collectors and biomass energy in conjunction with a heat pump or conventional boiler. The heart of the system is the INTEGRATOR module which connects and distributes streams of energy, playing a role of a heat and cold buffer, and optimizes the working of various heat sources. The technology enables for the connection of any heat sources – renewable and traditional with any receiver: floor heating, recuperation, heaters and fan coil units. Hot tap water is processed in a hygienic way. An inteli – gent control system with a remote access ensures an optimum operation of heat sources and receivers. Solar power can automatically be stored and used for space heating purposes. There is no problem with overheating of the solar installation. In turn, the biomass device can be used as the main source of heat for the building, providing space heating and hot tap water in the absence of sunlight. The system is also adapted to work with another source of energy – a conventional boiler or a heat pump. Using a heat pump in conjunction with fan coil units additionally allows active space cooling.
Avantages of the solution:
- Heating and cooling in houses consolidated into one integrated system, and synergy of renewable energy sources
- Large savings on the building’s operating costs, and energy security of the household
- Modular and standardized installation system, optimized and harmonious equipment operation
- Possibility to disconnect individual devices while maintaining continuity of operation
- Installation can be programmed according to individual user needs
- Prevention of solar installation overheating
- Easy service and maintenance of the installation
The system works thanks to full synchronization of all those devices. A control device supplied with the system ensures an automatic operation of the equipment and the effect of synergy. An important feature of the INTEGRATOR is the function enabling blocking of the operation of heating devices, in order to avoid duplication of energy sources, which allows for optimal use of system components. The presented system is unique, as it allows the integration of several energy sources and an innovative consolidation of heating and cooling systems. This increases comfort and reduces the costs of operation. The positive effect on the environment brought about by the use of energy from renewable sources is also significant.
