Balancing with Pressure Independent Control Valves (PICVs) – The 145 Series PICV

Pressure Independent Control Valves (PICVs) are crucial for hydronic systems with multiple zones or terminal units. They help balance flow rates across different branches of the system, ensuring that each zone receives its required flow, temperature, and comfort levels. Senior Technical Support, Stephen Elsmore, discusses the role of PICVs, focusing on the 145 Series PICV from Altecnic, in balancing hydronic systems.
