Test results
Congratulations. You have passed the test and completed the 84 - Adding value in HVAC applications
Achieved badges:
Q: Can Grundfos products be monitored and controlled via a BMS system?
A: No, Grundfos pumps provide load adaptive performance, so no external control is possible
Q: Can Grundfos products be monitored and controlled via a BMS system?
A: Yes, Grundfos pumps still require manual monitoring and control
Q: Can Grundfos products be monitored and controlled via a BMS system?
A: Yes, Grundfos pumps can be monitored and controlled via a BMS system as well as offering load adaptive performance
Q: Why is installing a Grundfos MIXIT mixing loop solution a good idea?
A: It can be for some buildings – if price but not efficiency is important
Q: Why is installing a Grundfos MIXIT mixing loop solution a good idea?
A: You get the security of one supplier – but you still need to ensure capability between system components in your installation
Q: Why is installing a Grundfos MIXIT mixing loop solution a good idea?
A: You reduce complexity and time spent on selecting and sizing and MIXIT is up to 25% more cost effective than other solutions
Q: Does choosing a hydronic system affect the indoor climate?
A: No, you choose a hydronic system to save money on installation and energy
Q: Does choosing a hydronic system affect the indoor climate?
A: Yes, indoor climate is improved, and you get cost savings as well
Q: Does choosing a hydronic system affect the indoor climate?
A: Yes, the improved indoor climate makes it worthwhile paying for an expensive solution
Q: Is material waste reduced when using Grundfos Modular HVAC systems?
A: No, the benefits come from less need for time consuming transportation and assembly onsite
Q: Is material waste reduced when using Grundfos Modular HVAC systems?
A: Yes, as factory production of HVAC modules is far more efficient than onsite construction
Q: Is material waste reduced when using Grundfos Modular HVAC systems?
A: No, you get the security of one supplier – but you still need to unpack and install onsite
Q: Why is limited space for HVAC installations an issue for building projects?
A: If too little space is used, you have high operation and service costs; and using too much space reduces the floor area that can be rented out
Q: Why is limited space for HVAC installations an issue for building projects?
A: If the required amount of space is planned for at the design stage, this will not be a problem – as long as it matches the size of the installation
Q: Why is limited space for HVAC installations an issue for building projects?
A: This is an issue that can be resolved by renting out the installation floor area to the service provider
Q: Do building services perform as expected in a typical commercial building project?
A: No, only 2% of new buildings have a performance that matches the design estimate
Q: Do building services perform as expected in a typical commercial building project?
A: Yes, only 2% of buildings do not perform as they were designed to
Q: Do building services perform as expected in a typical commercial building project?
A: No, but this is expected – adjusting and optimising building services after completion is always calculated into costs
