SWISS SCHOOL WITH ZERO CARBON HEATING 

The project centers on the idea of a closed energy loop – a system where all components work together to form an autonomous whole. The rooftop solar plant generates around 100,000 kWh of clean electricity per year, which powers the KRONOTERM ADAPT MAX heat pump. The unit extracts heat from the outdoor air and converts it into energy for space heating and domestic hot water.

Because the heat pump is exceptionally efficient, the entire system operates without fossil fuels, without emissions, and without dependence on external energy sources. The result is a school that heats itself completely CO₂-neutral – using only the energy it produces on site. The project is also economically smart, as long-term heating costs are close to zero. 

In a school environment, quiet operation is essential. One of the key requirements of the project was silent performance – and ADAPT MAX delivered. Thanks to its innovative acoustic design, the system operates up to eight times quieter than comparable units. This allows it to be installed right next to the school building without disturbing lessons or student concentration.

Beyond quiet operation, smart control is what makes ADAPT MAX stand out. The system manages up to four heating circuits simultaneously – from radiator to underfloor heating – keeping every part of the building at the perfect temperature. 

ADAPT MAX eliminates the need for manual adjustments and reduces the workload for staff. 

• Autonomous regulation: Heating is fully managed through a smart application. Staff can set weekly and daily schedules, with automatic temperature reduction during night hours and holidays. Adaptive regulation ensures that the system operates with maximum efficiency and delivers immediate savings.
• Remote access: The maintenance team can access the system remotely at any time – meaning that any irregularities can be resolved quickly, safely, and without the need for a physical visit.
