When heat output claims don't add up: why compliance matters for installers
Concerns raised by MARC in collaboration with the OPSS highlights radiators being marketed with non-compliant heat outputs
We help you offer guests a warm welcome with suitable heating and cooling solutions for hotel renovations.
A hotel renovation is the perfect opportunity to enhance the hospitality experience with a focus on comfort and convenience. However, it’s also an ideal moment to make a commitment to sustainability. Simply adding smart thermostats to optimise energy usage is already a step in the right direction. Of course, reviewing the complete HVAC system and opting for low temperature heating and cooling driven by a renewable energy source, such as a heat pump, is a more complete, future-proof solution.
When switching to low temperature heating during a hotel renovation, it’s important that the current emitters are reviewed and replaced if necessary. Old radiators can, for example, be replaced by modern low temperature radiators or fan convectors. These will react quickly to the various heat demands in both common and private areas. In the bathroom, guests often appreciate underfloor heating, which is also a very good match for a low temperature system. This can be complemented by a small towel warmer that warms and dries the towels for extra comfort.
As hotel rooms are generally only occupied at certain times, it can be interesting to combine fan convectors with electric radiators. A fan convector such as our iVector S2 offers the perfect tool to keep the bedroom area of a hotel room cool in summer and warm in winter without consuming a lot of energy. Electric radiators, on the other hand, are very efficient, offer rapid heat and can easily be combined with solar panels. Electric towel warmers, for example, are great for quickly boosting the temperature whenever guests want to shower or take a bath.
Any hotel manager will tell you that balancing optimal guest comfort with minimal operating costs is a real challenge. A hotel renovation can help to facilitate this exercise. To ensure optimal, efficient year-round indoor climate comfort in every space or room, we offer a complete range of proven hotel renovation solutions that can be either centrally controlled or guest controlled.
Within our range of hotel heating and cooling solutions we offer various designs, from classic white panel radiators and fan convectors to designer radiators in trendy colours. This allows you to select appealing emitters that perfectly match the refurbished hotel interior, yet won’t create an overly specific style that will rapidly go out of fashion.
Regardless whether the heating and cooling is centrally or guest controlled, you will also find suitable control solutions in our product range. Discover the various types of hydronic and electronic controls that are the best fit to optimally control hotel heating and cooling on a daily basis.
