  TORONTO, Jul 13 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
A new web site -- www.RadiatorControl.com -- launched by Danfoss Heating
provides homeowners with important information about energy-saving
thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs).

    The user-friendly site highlights the features and benefits of TRVs,
including improved home comfort, increased energy savings and reduced
heating costs -- as much as 20 percent less. And installing a TRV is much
less expensive than replacing an entire heating system.

    The TRV senses temperature changes in individual rooms -- the result of
"free heat" from sunlight, appliances, occupants, etc. Then the valve
adjusts the flow of hot water or steam through the relevant radiators to
the desired levels, improving  temperature control and ensuring comfort
while conserving energy. The valve is easy for a professional to install,
and it can be placed on as many radiators as needed, providing custom
temperature control throughout a home heated by hot water or steam
radiators.

    In addition to detailed product and application information, the web site
includes a number of automated videos that describe the design of a TRV,
demonstrate how to set the thermostat and illustrate how the valve
provides custom  temperature control and helps with the hydraulic balance
of a home heating system. The site also provides a contractor locator
that allows homeowners to search for a certified installer near them.

    QUOTES

    Jason Paquette, marketing manager, Danfoss Heating:

     -- "As homeowners search for ways to conserve money and reduce their home
heating costs, Danfoss offers an affordable solution with its thermostatic
radiator valves. This new web site uses automated flash presentations to
explain just how easy it is to install the valve and immediately reduce
heating costs by as much as 20 percent, just by improving the efficiency
of a home heating system. Improved efficiency, through the ability to
control temperature in every room that uses a radiator, also improves
comfort."

    Dan Foley, president, Foley Mechanical, Inc.

     -- "This site is exactly what I need to help consumers understand what a
TRV is and what it does. I can tell a client that a TRV will solve their
problem, but if they don't know me, they need some verification and good
documentation that supports what I'm telling them about the TRV. This site
does a great job explaining the TRV, how it works and the benefits of
comfort and energy savings it offers."
