What is a delivery set?
A delivery set is a device that supplies heating, cooling and/or domestic hot water from a distribution network to an end user. This can involve an indoor installation for heating and/or cooling a building or residence (see image) and/or heating tap water, for example, for showering and other household uses.
Heating and cooling distribution networks vary in design temperature and pressure differential, meaning each network places different demands on a delivery set. Additionally, there may be specific end-user requirements, such as the available capacity for heating and cooling or hot water supply. With so many different networks, each with its own characteristics, a wide variety of delivery sets is available.
Assessment of delivery sets and disputes
Are you curious about the reliability of your delivery sets? Our experts provide support in evaluating delivery sets and verifying whether they meet the requirements of the heat supplier. They also assess other components, such as bypass valves. In case of issues or disputes, Kiwa conducts field measurements and research in its well-equipped laboratory to objectively determine the cause. Additionally, we assist in defining requirements and testing methods to ensure the performance and reliability of delivery sets.
What requirements must a delivery set meet?
For network operators, key factors include:
- High-quality delivery sets that function well, are reliable and meet end-user requirements
- Minimal impact on the distribution network
- Sustainable and efficient heat/cooling distribution.
Delivery sets are typically assessed based on requirements in the following categories:
- Safety
- Comfortable supply to the end user
- Minimal impact on the distribution network
- Efficiency
Evaluating (testing) a delivery set
Kiwa has extensive expertise and the right measurement setups to independently test delivery sets. We can:
- Simulate primary network conditions
- Apply demand patterns
- Measure response
- Compare results against requirements
- Assess materials, components and noise aspects
- Investigate failing components and provide advice
- Analyze poorly performing installations and offer solutions
By selecting the right delivery sets, you ensure not only efficient and comfortable heating, cooling and/or hot water supply, but also satisfied end users and a sustainably operating distribution network. Kiwa is ready to support you with expert advice, extensive testing capabilities and objective evaluations.

Boil-off safety system for vehicles using cryogenic hydrogen
In addition to hydrogen gas, liquefied hydrogen can also make an important contribution to more sustainable means of transport. However, an important point of attention when using cryogenic hydrogen is the boil-off when the ambient temperature causes the ice-cold gas to heat up.

Kiwa is an experienced development partner for manufacturers of domestic, large kitchen and small industrial gas-fired appliances. Whether it concerns stove burners, catalytic hydrogen burners, steam convection ovens or hydrogen burners for industrial bakeries, Kiwa’s Combustion & Advanced Testing (CAT) team supports the complete process from idea to production-ready prototype.
Smart gas applications for professional kitchens
Kiwa’s Combustion & Advanced Testing (CAT) team develops and optimizes professional gas appliances for large kitchens, catering companies and industrial kitchen environments. With many years of experience and our advanced laboratory facilities we help you design appliances that perform better, are more robust and achieve higher efficiency.
Product assessments heat distribution
Do you have a new product in heat distribution, such as a delivery set or heat pump system, or are you in the process of developing one? Ensure your product meets all standards and performs optimally with Kiwa Technology's expertise.
Damage analysis heat distribution networks
Kiwa Technology provides independent damage investigations and targeted advice to prevent future disruptions. Additionally, our modern laboratory allows us to conduct damage analyses through tests and experimental setups.
Sleeve connection assessment for heat distribution networks
The reliability of district heating networks heavily depends on the quality of pipeline connections. Water ingress at socket connections can compromise insulation, leading to reduced thermal efficiency and corrosion in steel pipes. It is crucial for both operators and contractors to ensure that socket connections are correctly installed to avoid costly future leaks.
Jointing techniques materials
Problems in pipeline systems often arise at the connections. At Kiwa Technology, we have years of experience investigating and identifying the causes of connection failures. Our expertise in welding plastic pipes (PE, PEX, PA, PP, etc.) and other joining techniques forms the foundation of our high-quality consultancy and research and development projects.
Independent technical damage investigation for gas-fired appliances
When gas-fired appliances or installations no longer function as intended this can lead to unsafe situations and conflicts about responsibilities. In many cases the root cause of a deviation or defect is not immediately clear. Kiwa’s Combustion & Advanced Testing (CAT) team can act as an independent expert to determine the technical cause and support an objective resolution.
Complex technical testing of combustion and thermal processes, appliances and installations
Kiwa’s Combustion & Advanced Testing (CAT) team helps companies solve technically complex challenges during product development, implementation and use. Our independent experts perform advanced tests, analyze results objectively and advise on robust technical solutions.
