Why district heating?
Why choose a Rebaro district heating System?
What is district heating?
District heating uses heat generated in a central plant that is supplied to the customer via a pipeline network in the form of steam or water. In most cases heat is generated using combined heat and power (CHP), that is the combined generation of electricity and heat.
This is used mainly in heating plants.
District heating transfer station
As the name implies heat is transferred to buildings via a transfer station. The hot water from the district heating pipes flows into the transfer station which then brings the water to a temperature that can be used in the home for heating and hot water. The cooled water then returns from the building via the transfer station back to the network.

District heating saves space
To heat using district heating you only need a district heating transfer station – preferably a REBARO system! These systems take up hardly any space providing more room for other things. There is no need for a large central heating boiler!
No unpleasant smells or noises in the house
The heat comes from a power plant and is not produced on your premises. There are no exhaust fumes, odours, soot or smoke on site. No need for the chimney sweep, there is no chimney to sweep!
Lower maintenance costs
No boiler and no chimney; no maintenance!
Peace of mind
Users of district heating need need not worry about pre-financing, storage capacity or providing fuel.
Easy to use

Maintenance is carried out automatically by the district heating supplier at regular intervals and is included in the basic price.
Environmental friendliness
Last but not least: district heating is one of the most environmentally friendly ways to heat! The use of district heating can save around 10 million tonnes of carbon dioxide annually – the equivalent of all CO2 emissions of Cologne.
