A heat meter is an instrument that measures the thermal energy used for heating or cooling a building. It calculates energy by combining flow measurement with the temperature difference between supply and return pipes.

These devices are vital in district heating systems, residential complexes, and commercial buildings. By providing accurate data, they enable fair billing and promote energy conservation.

Modern heat meters are equipped with digital communication interfaces, allowing remote data collection through IoT or wireless systems. They help utilities and consumers monitor usage trends and detect inefficiencies early.

Proper calibration and maintenance are essential to maintain long-term accuracy and system integrity.
