Why Precise Planning Is Essential
Forward-looking planning of mobile heating solutions not only minimizes risks and costs but also ensures that the heat demand is always met. Errors in dimensioning or installation can lead to inefficient operation, unnecessary downtime, or even safety risks. Therefore, it is crucial to precisely analyze the specific requirements of the deployment location.
1. Performance: Correctly Determine Heat Demand
The correct determination oft he required heating capacity (in kilowatts, kW) is the foundation of every successful mobile heating solution. Under-dimensioning leads to insufficient heating, while over-dimensioning results in unnecessary high costs and inefficient energy consumption. The following factors play a role in performance calculation:
- Volume of room/building to be heated: Cubic meters are a first indicator.
- Insulation level: Well-insulated buildings require less heating capacity than poorly insulated or open areas.
- Desired temperature: The difference between the outside and target temperature influences the demand.
- Outside temperature: The lowest expected outside temperature is decisive.
- Specific requirements: Process heat, hot water preparation, or drying tasks have their own performance requirements.
2. Connection: Safely Connect the Systems
The connection of your mobile heating solution includes the connection to the media supplies (electricity, fuel, heating circuit) as well as, if necessary, to the existing infrastructure. Technical compatibility and safety standards are of the utmost importance here.
Electrical Connection
Mobile heaters require electricity to operate pumps, burners, and control elements. The required voltage (e.g., 230 V or 400 V three-phase current) and fusing must be available at the deployment location. If necessary, adapters or the provision of a power generator may be required.
Fuel Supply
Fuel supply is a critical aspect:
- Oil: Provision of a suitable oil tank (often as a double-walled tank or integrated into containers) and secure hose connections. Due to higher flexibility, Mobile Wärme 24 exclusively rents oil-fired heaters. We also provide oil tanks for rent – as well as a tank service.
- Gas: Connection to the gas network or provision of liquid gas cylinders/tanks with appropriate pressure regulators and safety valves.
- Pellets: Storage and automatic feeding of the pellets.
At Mobile Wärme 24, we exclusively rent oil-powered heaters due to their greater flexibility.
Heating Circuit Connection
The mobile heating center is connected to the existing heating circuit of the building or system via flexible hoses. This is important:
- Hose dimensioning: Suitable for the flow rate and pressure of the system
- Pressure test: Ensuring the tightness of the entire system before commissioning
- Flow and return: Correct identification and connection of the lines
Setup: The Optimal and Safe Location
The choice of the right setup location is crucial for the efficiency, safety, and accessibility of your mobile heating solution. The following criteria must be observed:
- Substrate: A solid, level, and load-bearing substrate is essential to support the weight of the heating center and the fuel tank.
- Distance to buildings/flammable materials: Sufficient safety distance according to regulations (fire protection).
- Accessibility: The location must be easily accessible for delivery, installation, maintenance, and refueling.
- Noise emissions: Noise development must be considered, especially in residential areas or at events.
- Exhaust gas routing: Safe discharge of exhaust gases to prevent danger to people or buildings.
Weather protection: Protection against extreme weather conditions can increase the lifespan and efficiency of the system.
