Hydraulic Configuration Precheck

Do you need a buffer tank or hydraulic separation?

Check why a buffer may be needed: active water volume, minimum flow, multiple circuits, independent pumps or mixed temperatures. This tool does not use a universal litres-per-kW rule.

Hydraulic configuration

Hydraulic inputs
Litres that remain genuinely available to the heat pump even when zones close. Leave blank if unknown.
Litres. Use only an applicable manufacturer/model requirement — not an estimate.
Important: adding water volume and providing hydraulic separation are different design problems. Connection arrangement and truly active water volume matter, not only the nominal tank litres.
