Heat substation
Heat Interface Units (BG 62/2015) was written by Reginald Brown and published by BSRIA in December 2015. It states: ‘A heat substation is used to connect larger buildings or sub-networks to a heat network... Note that some other publications consider HIUs (Heat Interface Units) within the general class of heat substations.’
