Heinrich Brandt

Heinrich trained in the former East Germany before reunification and brings a different perspective to the team. He initially specialized in large centralized heating systems but has continuously updated his skills to include modern technologies. He joined Klima-Tech Schmidt 15 years ago when he relocated to Munich from Leipzig.

Experience: Master craftsman with over 35 years of experience (9/10)

Favorite Jobs

• Boiler installations and upgrades
• Hydronic system balancing
• System efficiency optimization

I've seen heating technology transform completely over my career, from coal to oil to gas and now heat pumps. The physics doesn't change though - understanding how heat moves through a building will always be the foundation of good work.

Physical Condition

Suffering from significant knee and hip joint degeneration after decades in the trade. Today he's particularly stiff after working in a cramped boiler room yesterday and is moving slowly between tasks.

Favorite Place

Heinrich finds peace at the Deutsches Museum in Munich, particularly in the energy technology exhibits. The historical progression of heating systems displayed there reflects his own career journey from older technologies to modern systems. He visits monthly and enjoys explaining the technical details to his grandchildren, hoping to inspire their interest in engineering and craftsmanship. The museum gives him perspective on how his life's work fits into the broader technological evolution.
