Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2372259A2] The method involves measuring outlet temperature (Tw) and/or volume flow of water by measuring sensors (8-10) arranged in a water path. The outlet temperature of the water is regulated to a predetermined water-reference temperature based on heat output of a heat generator (1), such that the generator is switched-on and a pump (4) is switched to a low hot fluid volume flow during reaching of minimally-permissible outlet temperature, and the heat generator is switched-off and the pump is switched to high hot fluid volume flow during reaching of maximally-permissible outlet temperature. An independent claim is also included for a water heating system comprising a heat generator.
