Programmable heating systems to reduce energy use

Programmable heating systems to reduce energy use

Information

Effective, controllable heating systems can help businesses to reduce energy consumption, with associated cost savings and reduced CO2 emissions.

Heating in the workplace is most effective – and energy efficient – when systems enable different temperatures to be controlled in different rooms. This avoids the need to heat the whole premises when, for example, only a few meeting rooms are in use.

It can also improve the thermal comfort of employees, which can have positive implications for health and wellbeing.
