Before we move into the different solutions for control of small terminal units let us agree on the following;
Every hydronic system – and every terminal within a hydronic system - operates more effectively when balanced correctly.
Here’s why.
With the best possible hydronic control comes the best possible indoor climate at the lowest possible energy cost. You achieve this by meeting three key conditions:
1. The design flow must be available at all terminals.
2. The differential pressure across control valves must not vary too much.
3. Flows must be compatible at system interfaces.

The best way of meeting these conditions is to balance the system.
