Danfoss is a well-known energy management company in Denmark, with a high position in the fields of energy consumption control, cooling and heating, and is the inventor of radiator thermostatic control valves, and has strong technical strength in the field of heating.
Compared with the field of heating, Danfoss has a greater reputation in the field of refrigeration, and the core components of refrigeration equipment - compressors, products range from the smallest DC power compressor to large-scale commercial industrial compressors.
As an energy management company, Danfoss is expanding into electric energy, producing power modules, charging piles and other products, and in 2017, the revenue of the automotive business also surpassed that of the heating system business, accounting for 1/4 of the total revenue.
Today, the heating system revenue accounts for only 17%, which is not the most important business of Danfoss, but the scale is still very large, with 26 manufacturing plants, distributed in 12 countries, water heating systems, electric heating equipment are involved, so that the full coverage of heating products and parts, in 2017, the total annual revenue of Danfoss heating system field is nearly 1 billion euros, and the market size is very considerable.
In 1939, Danfoss exported its products to other countries, and Danfoss entered the Chinese market in the 90s of the 20th century, and now has 8 distributors, 7 factories and 20 offices in China, covering and gaining popularity in the Chinese market.
Compared with Uponor and Ruihao, Danfoss water and floor heating products are relatively affordable in price and have a good cost performance. The floor heating pipe is made of PE-RT, which has strong flexibility and superior low temperature resistance, and can also be laid at a low temperature of minus 20 °C. Compared with PEX, PE-RT has a slightly inferior heat resistance, so it is recommended to use it in the southern heating system with low water temperature.
Danfoss pipes are available in both oxygen-blocking and non-oxygen-blocking models, and it is recommended to use the oxygen-blocking model, which is a common material for the oxygen-blocking layer of floor heating pipes, and has excellent gas barrier, which can effectively prevent oxygen penetration and improve the durability of the underfloor heating system. The oxygen barrier tube adopts a five-layer oxygen barrier structure, and the price per meter is only 6.2 yuan, which is more affordable than similar products of Uponor.
Danfoss's manifold is made of brass, the resistance preset valve and the built-in control valve are readily available, and the safety of use is guaranteed, although the workmanship is slightly inferior to Uponor, but the price of 5-circuit products is only 1000 yuan, which is half of Uponor, and the cost performance is also very high.
