Abstract
A valve for an indoor temperature regulating system, includes a fixed valve housing having at least six valve connections and a valve selector for switching between providing a circulating flow from a first fluid source and a second fluid source thereby enabling fluid of different temperatures to a treatment unit. The valve selector includes a disc plate provided with openings and the valve main body is provided with valve openings connected via channels to the valve connections The valve selector and valve main body are slideable against each other. In the first mode valve openings are in register with lower disc plate openings such that two flow paths connecting the first fluid source with the treatment unit are enabled and in the second mode valve openings are in register with lower disc plate openings such that two flow paths connecting the first fluid source with the treatment unit are enabled.
