New Web Site Highlights Energy-Saving Benefits of Danfoss Thermostatic Radiator Valves
TRVs Can Save Homeowners as Much as 20 Percent on Home Heating Costs

TORONTO--(Marketwire - July 13, 2009) - A new web site -- www.RadiatorControl.com --
launched by Danfoss Heating provides homeowners with important information
about energy-saving thermostatic
radiator valves (TRVs).
The user-friendly site highlights the features and benefits of TRVs,
including improved home comfort,
increased energy
savings and reduced heating costs -- as much as 20 percent less. And
installing a TRV is much less expensive than replacing an entire heating
system.
The TRV senses temperature changes in individual rooms -- the result of
"free heat" from sunlight, appliances, occupants, etc. Then the valve
adjusts the flow of hot water or steam through the relevant radiators to
the desired levels, improving
temperature control and ensuring comfort while conserving energy. The
valve is easy for a professional to install, and it can be placed on as
many radiators as needed, providing custom temperature control throughout a
home heated by hot water or steam radiators.
In addition to detailed product and application information, the web site
includes a number of automated videos that describe the design of a TRV,
demonstrate how to set the thermostat and illustrate how the valve provides
custom
temperature control and helps with the hydraulic balance of a home
heating system. The site also provides a contractor locator that allows
homeowners to search for a certified
installer near them.
QUOTES
Jason Paquette, marketing manager, Danfoss Heating:
-- "As homeowners search for ways to conserve money and reduce their home
heating costs, Danfoss offers an affordable solution with its thermostatic
radiator valves. This new web site uses automated flash presentations to
explain just how easy it is to install the valve and immediately reduce
heating costs by as much as 20 percent, just by improving the efficiency of
a home heating system. Improved efficiency, through the ability to control
temperature in every room that uses a radiator, also improves comfort."
Dan Foley, president, Foley Mechanical, Inc.
-- "This site is exactly what I need to help consumers understand what a
TRV is and what it does. I can tell a client that a TRV will solve their
problem, but if they don't know me, they need some verification and good
documentation that supports what I'm telling them about the TRV. This site
does a great job explaining the TRV, how it works and the benefits of
comfort and energy savings it offers."
