Abstract
One possibility of reducing the energy consumption of buildings is to reduce heat loss in hot water distribution system kept in buildings. The aim of this paper is to present the results of research, which focused on energy efficiency of the distribution system of hot water in residential buildings. As part of the research have been carried out test measurements on the hot water distribution line and air temperature around the distribution line. Test measurements were conducted in two separate stages, in which measurements were made, as with continuous and intermittent operation in distribution system. The first stage of measurements took place before reconstruction of hot water distribution system when pipes weren´t insulated with thermal insulation. The second stage took place after reconstruction of the system, when pipes were fitted with thermal insulation. The aim of the research was to determine the course of the temperature of the water in the distribution system in different stages and highlight the effectiveness of isolating the hot water distribution system.
