x-Heat - Intelligent Boiler Control
xHeat provides optimised commercial boiler efficiency for energy reduction. 75% of boiler-generated heat is estimated to be lost through the fabric of the building*- yet even the most sophisticated building management system (BMS) applies little intelligence to controlling the energy consumed in achieving target ambient temperatures.Now though, thanks to our new xHeat technology, it’s possible to optimise boiler efficiency through an intelligent process that ‘learns’ how to balance boiler output with demand… achieving energy savings of up to 30% as a result.It’s a system already proven to deliver median energy efficiency savings of 15% in over 400 large buildings. Now we’re extending the technology to meet the demands of smaller premises such as schools, restaurants and retail outlets.*CIBSE analysis based on typical building insulation profile.
How xHeat works
How xHeat works
xHeat works by preventing unnecessary boiler duty while still meeting the space comfort demands of building occupiers.
It does this by constantly balancing the equilibrium between system heat supplied by the boiler and the call for heat, usually controlled in larger buildings by BMS set-points. This is achieved by using control algorithms to ‘learn’ and then predict the optimum water temperatures required to maintain efficient supply in keeping with space comfort requirements.
The result is optimal balance between heat supply and building demand – and all achieved with lower energy consumption.
Summary of benefits
While existing anti-cycling control technologies share the same objective as xHeat, they are based on a principle of constant adjustment linked to BMS demands rather than intelligent learning. In other words, they operate rather like a car going too fast on an unfamiliar journey…constantly braking to vary the speed to stay on the road. With xHeat, the route is learned intelligently, so that braking becomes unnecessary and performance is much more fuel efficient.
