In the majority of homes, over half your energy cost is accounted for by the heating and hot water usage.
Traditional water based heating systems comprimise of a boiler, radiators and a hot water cylinder (although combi boilers don't have a cylinder). Most of these boilers shara a common form of control that, even with the majority of new boilers is still not efficient.
Your heating system can be divided into three parts- the boiler, the radiators and the pipework. You can make your boiler and radiators more efficient through the installation of these new technologies.
You can create energy savings by improving the efficiency of your boiler
Most boilers can be made to run more efficiently by eliminating common problems such as short cycling, temperature overshoot and heat saturation. To make your boiler more energy efficient you can
Improve the boilers operating efficiency with The NuVision Boiler Energy Saver
The NuVision Boiler Energy Saver improves the efficiency of your boiler by using smart technology to modify the boilers cycling process and create energy savings. The boiler Energy Saver will operate with most boilers giving years of energy savings
Reach your desired temperature quicker with Magnatech
The Magnatech improves the quality of the fuel entering into to your boiler which results in the boiler using less fuel to reach your desired temperature. Independently verified by the Tritech Environmental Technology Verification project you can save up to 10% on your heating.
Make the Thermostat Smart with Tado
Wi-Fi based time clock and thermostat. Not only can you control your boiler from your computer, tablet or phone but the system allows for more accurate on /off set points as well as improves comfort levels. Additional features such as ‘away’ reduce wasted heat.
The Pipework
Prevent Air building in the heating system with Vortex
Most water based heating systems suffer from excess air that is pumped around your heating system. In a lot of cases this not only creates noise it also reduces the system efficiency. The Vortex unit installed in your heating system pipework not only removes this air it also continues to remove oxygen to such low levels that it eliminates sludge formation and makes the water denser which improves heat transfer, all of which help reduce cost.
Your radiators
Keep heat in the home with Radflek
A simple and efficient energy saving is the installation of Radflex. This simple reflective sheet placed down the back of the radiator reduces heat absorption into the wall behind –simple but effective cost saving.
Control the heating requirements of each room with Energenie
We are all aware that TRV valves are important on radiators to control the temperature within a room, however these can now be upgraded to have a wireless communication allowing each radiator to be controlled through an app on your computer, tablet or phone. Ask about our Energenie option if this is something that appeals to you.
