Heating

Water 650An effective heating system can save energy. On the market there are many options including condensation boilers that use the existing water vapor in the combustion process to create additional energy which can up add up to 100% efficiency.

Wintertime
Adjust the temperature with the installation of a sensor if your current Heater does not have one, with the correct use of the sensor, the temperature is maintained as required and you can control the temperature for different times of the day, for example maintaining the temperature at 20% when you are at home and 15% when we you are away, at night while you are sleeping maintain the temperature at around 18%. Try to remember that for every degree of temperature reduction, it represents an energy saving of 6-7% Radiators should be clear of obstacles and not covered by curtains or furniture. To keep the temperature at night, keep the blinds and curtains closed and try and install insulated doors and windows to not let the heat escape. If you want to air the house, 10 minutes should be enough as not to let all the heat escape.

Summertime

It is advisable to install awnings, blinds and to close the curtains during the day to ventilate the house and if possible to do so in the early hours of the morning and at night. If you install an air conditioning unit try and make sure it is classification A in its energy consumption label.
Good insulation of the house saves energy and the optimum temperature is around 25 degrees. It is very important to ensure not to have a temperature difference with the outside of more than 12 degrees as sometimes too much change in temperature when we enter and leave a building can be unhealthy.

For water heating you can have considerable energy savings when choosing a boiler that produces hot water instantly and only heats the water when it is being used by the opening of the tap. For storage systems, use recirculation systems, hot water is constantly circulated to the consumption points and is available immediately.
