Did you know … that using your heating system for a period of eight hours, for each degree you lower the temperature thermostat energy consumption is reduced by 2%
The proper use of new mechanical technologies for heating, cooling and ventilation of buildings is considered one of the most important actions that contribute effectively to the energy upgrade of buildings. The older thermal systems used in existing areas are energy consuming and unprofitable. ALPHA IOANNOU ECO-TECH in collaboration with certified competent engineers take full responsibility in preparing technical and economical plans and replacing existing systems with new generation systems accelerating the reduced energy losses directly related to the power wastage. Extra guarantee is ensured as well as maintenance and repair service in case of any damage.
The solutions proposed, differ depending on the type and use of the area under study (home, hotel, public or commercial building). The main solutions that are usually proposed to upgrade the heating systems, air conditioning and ventilation in buildings are:
- Replacement of old air conditioners with new generation high energy class air conditioners
- Replacement of boiler / heating burner with new high-efficiency boiler and heating pump (circulation pump).
- Installation of Solar Thermal System in central heating.
- Installation of the heat pump (Heat Pump air to water), which uses the outdoor air as a means of thermal energy and converts the existing system in a building into an efficient heating system.
- Importing Heat Recovery Systems in hotels and professional units for heating, cooling and ventilation, where energy is lost through the waste of hot gases from heat generating systems.
Air conditioning Systems of High Energy Class:
The selection of air conditioners is made by taking in account their energy efficiency and the needs of your space. Given the widespread use of air conditioners in Cyprus, especially for space cooling purposes, the use of high performance air conditioners enable significant energy savings. Depending on the functionality of the proposed area of study various units are proposed:
Condensing Boilers
- Gas Boilers – LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas)
- Petrol Boilers
Solar Thermal Systems:
Heat Pumps Air to Water:
- Heat pumps are 100% compatible with existing underfloor heating systems. They fully replace common boilers using gas, petrol and electricity. As a result, the building owner is exempt from the cost of petrol, boiler maintenance and repair costs.
- Powered by electricity with the advantage that is up to 5 times more effective than common compatible means of heating in buildings. This can be explained in practice as follows: For every 1kW of electricity consumed, 5kW of heat is produced. Therefore, this kind of heating system can lead to significant savings and easy payback means due to the reduced cost required for heating the building.
- Electrical resistances are not used.
- Heat pumps are environmentally friendly since they have zero emissions, as they use air (renewable energy source).
- The compressor is a new inverter type of technology making the system more efficient and economical than common heating systems.
- Modern design and small size of the units.
Heat Recovery System:
- The heat recovery is achieved by heat exchange between flows of fluids, e.g. waste water, waste gases etc., and fluids involved in the production process, eg process water, combustion air etc.
- The purpose of a Heat Recovery System is to utilize the maximum heat waste to a simpler and more cost-effective solution.
