Heat Interface Units (HIU), London
The use of Heat Interface Units (HIU’s) and centralised plant to deliver heating to individual properties in large apartment complexes is becoming increasingly common.
Rather than each property having a boiler, the building has centralised equipment. Individual properties are then fitted with an HIU.
A heat interface unit is a box that looks like a boiler. It transfers the heat from the community heating network into the individual property’s central heating system via a plate heat exchanger. The HIU also contains a heat meter that measures the amount of heat energy used by that property.
Most HIU’s are thermostatically controlled, though proportional hydraulic controls are also available. The choice will depend on a range of factors. Our experts will explain the options so you can be sure you have the most appropriate control system for your property.
