Smart HVAC controls
Smart heating accessible to all wireless heating controls
With buildings accounting for a third of the global energy consumption, we must seek to improve the energy efficiency of our existing building stock as well as optimising energy consumption in new build through better insulation, more efficient windows, and more
A
typical HVAC system accounts for around 40% of the total energy consumption of a building, a significant percentage that
indicates just how important heating and cooling systems are in reaching our energy and climate targets. If we want to create a better future, we need to innovate in that area. Smart heating solutions such as new Unisenza Plus wireless heating controls help to create future-proof HVAC systems that offer significant energy saving benefits in both the short and long term. The range is a wireless heating control solution
that allows users to easily connect and control numerous heating and cooling devices at the touch of a button. According to Myson’s cluster product manager, Julian Clegg: “With only a few components such as
the Unisenza Plus gateway, electronic thermostatic head, wireless thermostat and receiver, it’s very easy to make different combinations and configure an entire building with a single control range. As the central unit, the gateway can connect up to 100 end devices. This allows for a fully tailored indoor climate comfort solution that can evolve with the building as well as the occupants’ needs and habits. That in turn leads to more comfort and energy efficiency, a win for the end users’ budget as well as the environment.”
Smart heating with the app
Each of the products can easily be paired and linked to the Unisenza Plus gateway to form an integrated network that is controllable via the intuitive app.
“With this single app, users can monitor and control all the linked products and devices wherever and whenever they want”, Mr Clegg continues. “In other words, the heating system becomes more controllable, and is very easy to adapt to daily habits. With the app at your fingertips, you can prevent unoccupied rooms from being heated unnecessarily, and ensure a comfortable temperature exactly where and when it’s needed. What’s more, the app allows for multiple gateways to be added, so users can control the heating system in their home as well as, for example, their holiday home or second residence, from a single app.”
Energy savings of up to 24%
In recent tests conducted by BEAMA, the UK trade association for manufacturers and providers of energy infrastructure technologies and systems, they calculated the potential savings on fuel bills through the application of a number of heating controls. Their baseline situation was a timeclock, Class I on/off room thermostat and manual radiator valves. The tests showed that by simply adding thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs), homeowners can already save an average of 18% on their fuel bills. Upgrading the Class I room thermostat to a Class IV device with load compensation or Class V/VI with load/weather compensation resulted in an additional average saving of 10 and 12%, respectively. “With Myson’s wired Unisenza or wireless Unisenza Plus (Class V) heating controls, you can create a
