Tinytag Data Loggers used for Energy Measurement in Domestic Properties


E


ngineering consultants Green Energy Partners, working in conjunction with housing association Castle Rock


Edinvar, have been using Tinytag temperature data loggers to assess energy usage and comfort before and after an energy-related retrofit scheme.


Castle Rock Edinvar is planning an upgrade of eight one bedroom flats in a village in Midlothian. Eight Tinytag Ultra 2 loggers were used to gather data to identify the current comfort levels (temperatures) in the properties, and to estimate annual spending on electric


space heating. This allowed Castle Rock Edinvar’s Home Energy Advice Team to provide suitable advice for homes that were under – or over – heated. The results will be used for comparison against a new heating system when it is installed, to identify how tenants control their new central heating system, and how their levels of comfort and energy costs compare.


The results helped clarify where switching from electrical heating to gas- or biomass-fired boilers will provide an economic and relatively environmentally friendly solution, and has confirmed the usefulness of temperature logging in electrically-heated properties in projects such as these. Loggers in the Tinytag range are designed to cost-effectively support a range of energy efficiency applications, by monitoring temperature, humidity and other environmental parameters.
