Maintaining drinking water hygiene in a resource-saving and sustainable way - by actively maintaining the temperature of cold water

Rising outside temperatures make it difficult to maintain the temperature
in cold water
In Germany, too, drinking water is only available to a limited extent in some regions during the summer months. This trend is being exacerbated by climate change, making it even more difficult to maintain drinking water hygiene. In order to realise a cold water temperature < 25 °C, the rising temperatures in buildings are generally countered with an increased frequency of temperature-controlled flushing measures. If the problem of a parallel rise in the building entrance temperature is added to this, the effectiveness of the flushing measures decreases even further - the water consumption increases drastically. Ergo: Maintaining hygienically uncritical cold water temperatures is only possible, if at all, with an immense consumption of the valuable resource of drinking water, and this with decreasing availability.

The solution: Active temperature maintenance with KHS CoolFlow
KEMPER KHS CoolFlow makes flushing measures for pure temperature maintenance in cold water installations redundant thanks to active temperature maintenance. A cooler and special thermostatic balancing valves are used in a cold water circulation system. This enables the system to guarantee permanent temperature maintenance < 20 °C. Combined with the flow splitter technology of the KEMPER KHS hygiene system, the circulation even works right up to the tapping points! KHS CoolFlow effectively saves drinking water, scores points with its low energy consumption and therefore usually pays for itself in less than two years.
