Genesis Heat-Timer™ – Wireless Sensors

Image
  One of the key features that sets  Genesis Heat-Timer™  apart from other heating controls is the inclusion of pre-programmed wireless space sensors.  The base product includes three space sensors but can connect to up to 5 for appropriate coverage of a typical small building of 20 units or less. Installing the space sensors couldn’t be easier, simply mount them on the wall with the provided hardware in an apartment.  The wireless sensors with their extended range, will report space temperatures directly to Genesis without need of repeaters or additional network hubs. The space sensors perform a key role in the control of the heating system.  By utilizing building temperature readings from all areas of the building along with the outside temperature, algorithms actually self-learn the heating characteristics of your building. The best part for building owners is that the Genesis Heat-Timer™, utilizing its space sensors, is able to do this  using...

  The Heat-Timer® Announces the Launch of  Genesis Heat-Timer™ “A New Energy Management System for Small Buildings” FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – August 1st, 2022                          Heat-Timer® Corporation Fairfield, New Jersey  Heat-Timer®, a leader in commercial heating controls since 1937, announces the launch of their new product,  Genesis Heat-Timer™ . The Genesis Heat-Timer™ heating control is an extremely cost-effective solution for both steam and hot water heating systems in single boiler applications (20 units or less).  Genesis Heat-Timer™ features a unique self-learning algorithm that incorporates outdoor air temperature along with in-unit ambient feedback to anticipate and compensate for the unique heat loss characteristics of your building.  With this self-learning feature in place, Genesis Heat-Time...

What to do if your Commercial Heating System Breaks Down

Image
When its cold outside and your commercial heating system suddenly stops working, you’ve got an emergency on your hands. Whether you’re running an apartment building, an office space, a retail mall or school, you need to act quickly to avoid downtime. That’s the time to call your preferred commercial HVAC company and get the problem dealt with as quickly as possible. Often times however the news is not good, particularly if this is the 4 th time your 20 year old boiler system has gone AWOL this year. Chances are that the following things are true about your boiler system It will continue to break down and require expensive repairs that are just band-aids on a larger problem. It will soon be or already is, energy inefficient compared to today’s equipment. So essentially your heating bill is costing you money each and every month. As the building manager, you will continue to live a stressful, sleep deprived life, full of midnight calls fr...

The Future of Heating Controls is AI

Image
With the US currently leading the world in AI, and spending trillions of dollars through private investment, it was just a matter of time before AI found its way into the  Building and Energy Management systems responsible for HVAC control. That’s also because In the Internet of Things (IOT), the things are getting much smarter. Today’s sensors are smaller, more accurate, measure more things, and consume less power than your grandma’s heating sensors. They’re also wireless, allowing placement in buildings where running complex wiring was a non-starter. Couple sophisticated sensor data with smart control algorithms that can coordinate the actions of dozens of boilers and valves across multiple boiler rooms, buildings and campus’ and you have a system that is crying out for the kind of intelligence only AI technology can bring. The Justification for AI in Heating Controls As far as HVAC is concerned, building owners know it is all about the money. How can they red...
