pH is one of the most critical parameters in heating water—and at the same time one of the most commonly misunderstood. In practice, it is often measured only once, noted, and then largely ignored. Yet it significantly influences how stably a heating system can operate over the long term. This is because the pH value […]

Conductivity is one of the key parameters in heating water—and at the same time one of the most commonly misunderstood. It is often viewed merely as a measured value. A numerical value that is recorded without its actual significance for system operation being fully understood. But there is much more to conductivity than that. It […]
A heating system that becomes “clogged with sludge” is not a rare occurrence—in fact, it’s more the rule than the exception. Often, the problem isn’t noticed until the first symptoms appear: radiators no longer get properly warm, valves respond sluggishly, or pumps run noticeably harder. By this point, however, the process is usually already well […]
When a heating system no longer gets properly warm, the cause is rarely a single component. In practice, it is more often a combination of hydraulic, mechanical, and—particularly often underestimated—water chemistry factors. The latter, in particular, develop gradually. The system is running, and heat is somehow reaching the rooms—but no longer at the desired quality. […]
Mixed-bed resins are among the key tools in modern heating water treatment. Yet, in practice, how they work often remains abstract. Often, only the result is considered—low conductivity, “demineralized water”—without truly understanding what happens in detail. It’s worth taking a closer look. Because, especially when it comes to heating water treatment, understanding the processes determines […]
