Thermal Insulation IZ-Ba-12-30

Thermal insulation for heat exchangers - what is it for? | IZ-Ba-12-30

When a heat exchanger is used in central heating systems, it releases part of its energy to the surroundings, causing heat loss. Some of the thermal energy is thus dissipated, not reaching the radiators or underfloor heating, yet will still need to be paid for. While this may not seem like a noticeable issue on a monthly scale, considering the lifespan of a plate heat exchanger (estimated at 10 to 15 years), it represents a significant financial expense.

Therefore, if the heat exchanger is located in a space we don't intend to heat, such as a boiler room or garage (when not in use), it's advisable to purchase a heat exchanger with thermal insulation.
