Agro Fossil Free - Storage Tanks – Energy Buffer Tanks

Descripción general

Using water or glycol as a heating fluid has great advantages. It is cost effective means to transfer energy from one source to another. The advantage of hydronic heating is also that its energy can be stored. In a simple radiant heat system we use concrete mass as a storage medium. However when we encounter houses with multiple heating requirements such as domestic hot water, in floor heat, fan coil radiators, pools and hot tubs, we need a method to harness the energy. This is done in a storage tank. The larger the storage tank, the larger the more energy we can store. Storing energy is very useful especially in application such as cold climate heat pump, geothermal and solar thermal heating applications.
