Domestic Hot Water Systems For Hotels

Image
Hotels, hospitals and other businesses with centralized hot water delivery face special challenges with regard to the safe and consistent delivery of hot water to their clients and residents, especially during peak periods. The hotel guest stuck with a cold shower will almost certainly give that hotel the cold shoulder next time they go to book a stay. They must provide hot water to all rooms and areas in all locations while ensuring that excessive boiler duty cycles do not run up heating bills. Key to the operation of these systems are the valves that control the mixing and flow of hot water, and the systems that monitor and control these valves. When properly specified and installed, these domestic hot water systems provide perfect on demand control over hot water distribution throughout your resort, hotel or multi-family building at a constant, set temperature while optimizing energy costs. A Guide to Tempering Valve Products Heat-Timer® provides some of ...

Trends In Energy Management Systems

Let’s face it: comfort in your apartment complex or commercial building is driven by the proper operation of your HVAC system. But HVAC is often the largest component of your building’s energy bill. As a result, new trends and technologies in HVAC are turning their focus toward efficiency. And for complex, distributed boiler systems to be efficient, its all about computer controlled automation. Here’s a few of the trends that the professionals at Heat-Timer® think are shaping our industry in the coming years. The Move to Smart HVAC Controls It was common for heating controls to be pre-programmed based on a building’s schedule, but today’s controls are now being built with more precise sensors. In modern implementations these sensors are out in spaces gathering information about what’s actually going on in various areas of a building. Sensors accurately detect the level of activity that’s actually occurring in the building in real-time and then modulate the equi...
