Plan more efficiently: A practical example with Hörmann Haustechnik




Challenge
Hörmann Haustechnik, an experienced specialist in modern heating and building technology, faced three key challenges in the area of planning and implementing heating systems. The first challenge was to correctly carry out the hydraulic adjustment in accordance with method B — a complex process that required exact calculations. Second, data collection proved to be inefficient, as building data was previously collected manually using a folding rule, which was time-consuming and led to errors. Thirdly, the sizing of heating systems has so far been dependent on external partners, which has led to limited flexibility and unnecessary dependencies.
Solution
By introducing autarc software, Hörmann Haustechnik was able to significantly optimize its planning processes. The solution enables precise calculations of the heat load, hydraulic balancing in accordance with method B and the independent dimensioning of heating systems. Data collection is also digital and efficient. The intuitive user interface and the comprehensive functions of the software simplify complex tasks and enable fast, reliable results. As a result, Hörmann Haustechnik was able to save time, increase accuracy and make its processes independent and flexible.
Upshot
The implementation of the autarc software led to a noticeable improvement in work processes at Hörmann Haustechnik. The precise hydraulic balancing increased the efficiency of the systems and customer satisfaction. Automated data collection saved time and significantly reduced the error rate. Thanks to the independent planning of heating systems, the company was able to act more flexibly, retain control over projects and position itself more competitively overall. Hörmann Haustechnik is thus positioning itself as an innovative provider that actively uses modern software solutions to increase energy efficiency and reduce the CO₂ footprint.
