The Low-Loss Header, also known as a Hydraulic Balancer, is designed to separate the boiler’s circulation from the heating system, suitable for medium to high-power systems (25 kW and above, ideal for an average house). It is used in setups with one or more boilers and various heating circuits, such as floor heating, radiators, or hot utility water. The LLH automatically manages flow separation, eliminating the need for manual balancing of pump flows. Its construction includes a desilter and air vent, offering additional benefits of system cleaning and air removal while protecting the boiler from low-temperature corrosion of the return water.

Operational Modes:

1. When the heat requirement equals the boiler’s power, the system operates in balance.
2. If the requirement is less than the boiler’s capacity (e.g., thermostatic valves are closed), some heat returns from the LLH, signaling the boiler to decrease output or switch off.
3. If the requirement exceeds the boiler’s capacity, increased pump suction signals the boiler to produce more heat.
