Hot Water Recirculation Systems

Learn the key features of our hot water recirculation feature:

Full Control Over Parameters: Customise calculation parameters, including pipe material, maximum velocity, system delta T, and insulation thickness and properties.

Automated Calculations: After using our intuitive drawing features, receive automated calculations for flow rates, pipe sizes, pump duties, and balancing valve settings, ensuring a completely balanced system (as verified by TAFE in an independent review).

Pressure Management: Get warnings where pressure exceeds the maximum allowed, such as in high-rise buildings. Easily add pressure reduction valves and/or stations with all relevant sizing and specifications provided.

Flexible Outputs: View calculations in the software or download them to a spreadsheet. Receive a bill of materials and export drawings via PDF, AutoCAD, or Revit.

CASE STUDIES
Award-Winning Heating Design

"Using h2x was pivotal, allowing for precise heat loss calculations, pipe sizing and flow rates for each room.

This level of detail ensured that the heating load accurately matched each space's requirements, minimising energy waste and maximising comfort.

The strategic placement of heat pumps and careful sizing of pipework were crucial in maintaining minimal pressure drops over an 18-metre distance."

CASE STUDIES
Greengate, UK

"I would estimate over the length of this project, I have spent 50% less time designing than I would on our previous software.

The ability to output the design straight into Revit assisted clash detection and coordination."

CASE STUDIES
