Make your home more energy efficient- Heating

Written By: nuvision Published In: Energy Saving Technical Toolbox Created Date: 2016-03-07 Hits: 1866

As businesses we are all looking for new markets where we can generate sales. NuVision Energy has developed a range of Energy Efficient products that can help make homes and business more energy efficient. 

In this article we look at the opportunities that exist for businesses in the energy efficiency market for boilers. 

 

 

Heating homes and hot water is one of the largest annual bills faced by households each year. The Energy Saving Trusts website states the “more than half the money spent on fuel bills is spent on heating and hot water.”

With this in mind the question remains how can households reduce their bills, without having to sacrifice comfort levels within their home?

Most heating systems in the UK are not operating efficiently.  There are a variety of reasons for this including air in the pipes, temperature overshoot, heat saturation, boiler cycling and radiator heat loss.

To tackle these issues affecting the performance of the heating system there are a number of retrofit products which can be used to make the boiler operate more efficiently

 

The Boiler

These products are designed to increase the efficiency of the boiler operation.

The NuVision Smart Boiler Energy Saver

 

What is the NuVision Smart Boiler Energy Saver?

The NuVision Smart Boiler Energy Saver is an intelligent retrofit device that is installed into the boilers thermostat and monitors the flow and return pipes.

 

How does the boiler energy saver create energy savings?

The NuVision Smart Boiler Energy Saver uses the temperature information from the flow and return to modify the boilers behaviour and prevent boiler inefficiencies such as temperature overshoot and heat saturation.

 

How much can the Boiler Energy Saver be expected to save?

The boiler Energy Saver can save up to 25% on the heating bill.

 

 

The Magnatech

 

What is the Magnatech?

The Magnatech is a high performance fuel conditioning system for maximising the temperature output of boilers.

 

How does the magnatech create energy savings?

The unit uses a powerful magnetic technology that is independently verified by the Tritech Environmental Technology Verification Project. By using the most powerful neodymium magnets available today to effectively enhance the combustion process of heating systems.

 

How is the energy saving created?

Fuel passes through the magnets negative and positive fields before it reaches the combustion chamber. This makes it easier for the carbon-based fuel to bond with oxygen and burn, creating a rise in flame temperature of up to 120°C or more.  This allows the system to reach the desired temperature sooner without burning any extra fuel.

 

How much can you expect to save when you install the magnatech?

The Magnatech guarantees an energy saving of at least 6% but generally expects the saving to be around 10%.

 

The Radiators and Pipework

 

The products below are designed to make the radiators and pipes transfer heat more efficiently.

The Vortex Energy Saver

 

What is the Vortex Energy Saver?

The Vortex Energy Saver removes entrenched air in the heating system.

 

How does the Vortex create the energy saving?

By nature air bubbles in the heating system are lazy and lethargic, which reduces the heat transfer efficiency. As a result removing the entrained air and dissolved oxygen, the heating system will become more efficient. This allows for better heat transfer and hot water regeneration, which delivers higher radiator temperatures.

 

How much can you expect to save by instaling th Vortex?

The Vortex generates energy savings of up to 29% on heating bills

 

Radflek Radiator Reflectors

 

What are the Radflek Radiator Reflectors?

A revolutionary energy saving radiator reflector that reflects 95% of the wasted heat energy.

 

How does radflek work?

Simply the radflek radiator reflector is installed behind your radiator and reflects the heat lost from behind your radiator back into the room.       

 

How much can you expect to save with Radflek?

With Radflek you can expect to reduce the heat loss from your radiators by 45%. With Radflek making your rooms warmer you will need to run you’re heating less!

 

Energenie Smart Automation System

 

What is Energenie Smart Automation System?

This is a complete home automation system which allows you to control your heating and electrical appliances at a touch of a button.  

 

How does Energenie work?

Energenie works through the home wifi. With retrofit radiator valves, wall sockets and light switches allowing your customers to turn their house into a smart house and monitor their energy usage through integrated monitoring.

 

How much can you expect to save using Energenie Smart Automation?

It is hard to put a realistic figure on savings as it very much depends on the lifestyle of the individual. Where it can help make savings is by allowing the customers the option not to turn on the heating or other appliances when not present in the home.
