Heatboy for testing of pipes cast in concrete elements
The Challenge
Ensure effective heating of new concrete elements with integrated heating pipes during casting in a cold climate.
The Solution
Use of five electric mobile boilers (Heatboy 22 kW) to heat the pipes cast in the concrete elements.
The Result
Efficient heating that supported the casting process and demonstrated the product's long-term heat functionality.

The Challenge
The project involved the development of innovative "VIP elements" - concrete elements with integrated heating pipes. The challenge was to test and demonstrate that these pipes could effectively deliver heat both during the actual casting process in cold climate, as well as function as a heat source for the building throughout its lifetime.
The Solution
Energy Rent provided five 22 kW Heatboy electric mobile boilers to heat up the fluid in the pipes integrated in the concrete elements. These boilers ensured even and controlled heating of the pipes, which was crucial for achieving the desired temperature in the concrete during the curing process and for demonstrating the product's functionality in realistic building conditions.
The Result
The Heatboy boilers delivered necessary heat, ensuring that the concrete elements cured correctly and avoided damage related to cold climate. The successful testing showed that the pipes not only could effectively deliver heat during construction, but also had the potential to function as a permanent heat source for the building. This helped to reduce the need for traditional heating methods and demonstrated an innovative solution for the construction industry.
Energy Rent's contribution with Heatboy boilers was instrumental to our success in testing the VIP elements. Their solution ensured we could demonstrate both the efficiency and the practical application of our new concrete technology under challenging conditions.
