Supply networks for district heating and cooling
Precise conversion of materials and energy
Comfortable temperatures without a boiler or air conditioning
Energy supply companies use a district heating network to provide their customers with hot water and heating water directly via a pipe network – safely and conveniently without a boiler or fuel store in the home or office building. If renewable energies or waste heat from industrial production or electricity generation are also used, this is simple and convenient. And it is also particularly efficient and environmentally friendly.
- Heat sources for district heating networks:
- Thermal power plant
- Combined heat and power plants
- Geothermal energy
- Solar thermal energy
- Power-to-heat systems
- Industrial companies
- Waste recycling plants
Kremsmüller Pipeline Construction and Pipeline Construction is an experienced partner for the pipelines required from the power plant, heat source or storage facility to the customer.
Incidentally, the whole thing also works in reverse – with a district cooling network for cooling residential buildings, businesses and public facilities in hot summers using chillers.

Kremsmueller pipelines for district heating and district cooling supply
District heating uses hot water as the heat transfer medium. The district heating reaches the connected buildings directly via an underground, insulated system of pipes and pumping stations. A house connection pipe is then laid from the main pipe. Transfer stations then transfer the heat to the building heating and hot water supply in a controlled manner.
A district heating system is a closed circuit with flow and return.
This means that the hot water arriving at the transfer station supplies heating water and hot water heating in the house. The cooled water is then fed back into the district heating network.
Like all pipelines, the pipelines for district heating are also laid in the ground. To ensure that the energy stored in the water from heat generation is retained as completely as possible along the entire transport route to the consumer, the pre-insulated district heating pipelines are made of
- a steel pipe
- an insulating layer of PU foam
- and a plastic casing for mechanical protection
