Before starting the circulation balancing, the circulation line must be completely vented. No more "air noises" should be perceived, e.g. at the pump. If circulation balancing has been started, no tapping may be carried out in the drinking water network concerned during the time when balancing is in progress. The...

How long can a circulation balancing take ?
Circulation balancing can take more than 10 minutes depending on the size of the building and the pipe network.
How to choose the right fresh water station?
In the download area of our website you will find, among other things, a planning support for the design of fresh water stations. Click here to get there.
Can fresh water stations be operated with heat pumps as heat generators ?
tubra® fresh water stations are well suited for use with heat pumps due to their heat exchanger with high thermal length. It should be noted, however, that the smaller the temperature difference between the storage tank and the potable water temperature, the larger the fresh water station should be selected.
How do fresh water stations produce hot water ?
By means of a volume flow sensor, the requested hot water volume flow is registered. The internal pump regulates the volume flow on the buffer side in such a way that a constant hot water temperature is achieved. In this process, the heat exchanger is flowed through in countercurrent principle.
What are the advantages of a fresh water station compared to a drinking water storage tank ?
Fresh water stations heat drinking water according to demand. Hot water is produced only when it is needed. In addition, fresh water stations achieve very low return temperatures and thus increase the efficiency of the overall system.
What has to be considered when using tubra® fresh water stations with regard to water quality ?
In our installation instructions you will find a table with the values to be observed for fresh water. If the limit values are exceeded, our fresh water stations with full stainless steel heat exchangers should be used.
How is the tubra®-mag-jet magnetite separator integrated into the heating circuit stations ?
Instead of the pump compensating pipe, the tubra®-mag-jet is installed in the return pipe of the heating circuit station. The required construction length of the tubra® mag-jet results from the dimension of the mounted heating circuit group. This applies to both mixed and unmixed heating circuit stations.
What is the best way to equip a tubra® heating circuit station with a heat meter ?
Tuxhorn offers a heat meter set for heating circuit stations. The scope of delivery includes transition nipples for the installation of a heat meter in the return of the heating circuit station (instead of the pump compensating pipe) as well as a T-piece including sensor adapter for the installation of...
The tubra solar station has no flow unless the ball valves are set to 45° position.
An incorrect flow direction during flushing / cleaning can lead to the cone of the gravity brake being pressed too deeply into the seat and not being released again by itself.
