Valves & Mixers
Valves & Mixers are central components for the regulation, distribution, and control of heating and hydraulic systems. They help direct flow rates, mix heating circuits, shut off system sections, or control zones precisely.
In this category, you will find valves, mixers, and zone valves for heating systems, storage tank connections, pump groups, and hydraulic system technology. When selecting, pay particular attention to connection size, function, material, operating pressure, temperature range, and the appropriate integration into your system.

Valves & Mixers for Heating Systems
Valves and mixers perform important tasks in heating, storage, and hydraulic systems. They regulate, distribute, mix, or shut off flow volumes and help ensure that heating circuits, storage tanks, heat generators, and consumers are connected in a controlled manner. Depending on the design, they are operated manually, thermostatically, or via actuators.
In this category, you will find valves, mixers, and zone valves for various applications in heating and system technology. These include, for example, mixing valves for temperature control, zone valves for dividing individual heating areas, shut-off valves for maintenance and system sections, as well as hydraulic fittings for use in pump groups, storage connections, or control loops.
Typical advantages of suitable valves and mixers
- controlled regulation and distribution of heating water
- targeted control of individual heating circuits or system areas
- support for clean hydraulic integration
- suitable for new construction, renovation, replacement, and system optimization
- combinable with pump groups, control technology, and storage technology
Areas of application
Valves and mixers are used in many areas of heating technology. Typical applications include heating circuit controls, underfloor heating, return temperature boosting, storage tank connections, pump groups, heat generators, zone controls, as well as mixed heating circuits in single-family homes, multi-family homes, workshops, or commercial installations.
Important selection criteria
When selecting, you should pay particular attention to the function of the component: Should a heating circuit be mixed, an area shut off, a volume flow switched, or a zone controlled electrically? In addition, the connection size, thread type, material, maximum operating pressure, temperature range, flow coefficient, installation position, and compatibility with existing actuators or controllers are decisive.
For a targeted product selection, filters such as Manufacturer, Product type, System technology detail, Connection size, Material and Price can be helpful. This way, valves, mixers, and zone valves can be narrowed down more quickly to the desired application.
Note on professional design
Valves and mixers must match the hydraulics, the flow rate, the control strategy, and the respective installation situation. The information in the shop is for orientation purposes and does not replace a professional inspection, hydraulic design, or installation by a qualified person.
Matching additional categories
For complete system connection, pump groups, return temperature boosting systems, control technology and Fittings be relevant.
FAQ on Valves & Mixers
Which products belong to the Valves & Mixers category?
The category includes, among others, valves, mixing valves, three-way mixers, zone valves, shut-off valves, and other hydraulic fittings for heating and system technology.
What is a mixer used for in a heating system?
A mixer is used to mix water flows and thereby influence temperatures in heating circuits or system components. Mixers are often used in mixed heating circuits, underfloor heating, return temperature boosting systems, or storage tank connections.
What is the difference between a valve, a mixer, and a zone valve?
Depending on the design, a valve is used to shut off, regulate, or switch a volume flow. A mixer combines and mixes water flows, for example for temperature control. A zone valve is used to selectively open or close individual heating areas or system zones.
What should I pay attention to when selecting?
The most important factors are connection size, thread type, material, operating pressure, temperature range, function, installation position, flow coefficient, and compatibility with existing control technology or actuators.
Can a mixer be combined with an actuator?
Many mixers can be combined with a suitable actuator. It is crucial that the mixer, actuator, and controller are technically compatible. The manufacturer's specifications and the specific installation situation should always be checked.
Are valves and mixers equally suitable for every heating system?
No. Suitability depends on hydraulics, connection size, temperature range, operating pressure, medium, control type, and system design. Therefore, the selection should always be made to match the existing or planned heating system.
