By heating the relevant areas, it can be ensured that melt water can drain away and possible damage caused by re-freezing can be prevented. Another reason is also the prevention of pipe bursting due to freezing of transported liquids (e.g. water, fuel oil) and damage to heating systems, as well as the preservation of flowability.<\/p><p>Warm water temperature maintenance is used to save energy and water consumption.
