Snow Melting - Conclusion
With
each application and expectation there are control decisions
to make regarding fluid temperatures (typically boiler
supply and return and snow melt supply). Outdoor temperature
used to engage and disengage the controls, slab temperature
to regulate idle/on features, precipitation sensors to
switch systems out of standby, and timers for post melting
to clear up the last signs of precipitation are also
important considerations. In addition, these controls have
outputs to “power on” circulators and power control valves
(open/ close), ignite burners, and integrate with safety
switches like low water cutoffs, flow switches and low limit
alarms. The significant price difference can be explained by
describing a low-end control being represented by a unit of
one up to a high-end control of 40 units. Between one and
forty units of cost there are a plethora of controls
with features and benefits to match every system.
