Radiators

The myth that radiators cannot be combined with heat pumps due to the high heating supply temperatures is still widespread. However, it is no longer true. Modern heat pumps can generate high temperatures of up to 65°C with acceptable efficiency even on very cold winter days. In addition, with renovation measures on the building envelope (such as basement ceiling insulation), the radiators can be operated with lower temperatures, which increases the efficiency of the heat pump. For this reason, especially in older buildings, measures on the building envelope should always be checked in the event of an imminent heating replacement. Often a combination of measures on the building envelope with a heat pump is the financially and ecologically most attractive solution.
