Applying for government grants

As a general rule, the customer receives a BEG grant based on the purchase price of the product. Hydraulic balancing is also eligible for funding if it is carried out and verified in accordance with Procedure B of the ZVSHK-VdZ-VDMA technical regulation.

Following the recertification carried out by TÜV Rheinland in 2026 in accordance with the BMWK/BAFA checklist, state funding is available for the hydraulic balancing of our products using alternative temperature-based methods. This means: As part of the hydraulic balancing process carried out in accordance with Procedure B, the installation company may use our products, which feature automated hydraulic balancing from the heating manifold, and may apply for the grant.

In this context, please refer to our practical guide, which sets out in detail which elements of hydraulic balancing in accordance with Method B are replaced by our products featuring the integrated ‘automated hydraulic balancing’ control system.
