Zusatzregister

German term or phrase: Zusatzregister

"Zudem besitzt dieses Modell ein Zusatzregister über welches eine Heizung als Unterstützung in den Wintermonaten, oder eine thermische Solaranlage mit eingespiesen werden können."

This seems to be for a Swiss end client selling a range of "eco boilers". As you can imagine, combinations of "boiler", "heater" and "additional register" don't really give search engines much to work with.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

"in which case you should have disagreed with a justification"

I certainly would have. But I can't, as explained below.

Also, it's not just me. I asked someone who has been doing this for 20+ years. Same answer. You need a second coil to connect a solar thermal system.

Here's another example, including the word Zusatzregister:
"Zusatzregister 1 m2 (VT167 E) für alternativen Betrieb"
https://www.swisstherm.ch/images/produkte/downloads/SWT-Prod...

Take a look at page 2; there's a picture that shows you what the Zusatzregister looks like (item no. 15). It really has nothing to do with the register described on your Wiki page.

Best wishes

You're not alone in your "editorship", and that doesn't suggest my answer is completely wrong - in which case you should have disagreed with a justification. Your answer seems quite a reasonable alternative to mine, so please bear that in mind.

I apologize if I sounded a bit aggravated. It's just frustrating. Basically, I can't do anything else than post in the d-box. I can't agree/disagree or post an answer.

If you take a look at the Leaders board, more than half(!) of the people in the top 10 tier will have the same problem: https://www.proz.com/?sp=leaders_new

Anyway, all the best for your project!

Thanks for your answer!

And no, I didn't know that. I frankly didn't have a clue what I was doing when I made this post and thought I'd just figure this whole KudoZ thing out as I go. Thanks again!

As you can see, this has nothing to do with grilles and windows.

You do know that you'll get very few answers by including the proz.com requirement?

Anyway, I've been editing news articles about solar thermal technology for nearly 10 years and David's answer looks completely wrong to me.

This is your Register(boiler):
https://www.waermepumpen-boiler.ch/waermepumpenboiler-mit-re...
https://www.mueba-energietechnik.ch/l1/boiler-trinkwasser-wa...

What you're looking for are coil exchangers:
https://buffer-tank.co.uk/indirect-buffer-tank.php

Or heat exchanger coils, but certainly not register--take a look at the Wiki link and you'll see it's not even the same thing.

In the solar thermal market, Register is known as meander/serpentine piping/tubing, but that's not your question, of course.

Best wishes

additional (heating) register

Explanation:
Welcome, Max.

See
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Register_(air_and_heating)

for a definition of "register". So you see, you weren't far off!

By the way, the points you are (not) giving here cost you nothing. All you do when posting "not for points" is discourage those who might answer (for points), as we all like to be appreciated!

You don't actually need points yourself to be able to award them; you'll get the hang of it quickly enough. Stick around and you'll find this site a great help.

Notes to answerer

Asker: Thanks, answer much appreciated! As for the points, I don't have any KudoZ myself, so I don't know if I can award any? Not sure how the whole thing works as this is my first question.

Asker: Ah, thank you. I will bear that in mind for next time. Thanks a lot David!
