Energy saving tips

 
everyone needs Exqheat
As folks become aware that energy efficiency is a source of income from investment in efficiency, more folks will demand Exquisite Heat control for their building.  The even comfort is a benefit folks realize immediately.  With a one year money back guarantee, and 5 year equipment warranty, it is the smart choice for those wanting to reduce global warming from chimney gases, and saving energy on heating and air conditioning.

Harvey L., private home,   "  It makes sense and I notice the even comfort throughout the house. I like how on the cool days the house is comfortable and the boiler temperature goes down.  That will show up on the oil bill as a savings for sure." 8/18/05 Fuel study showed that savings did not show up in the reduced fuel use, but savings were used to achieve warming of the cooler portions of the home with better comfort distribution.

"I am a Master plumber for 60 years. This is the most amazing advance in heating control I have ever witnessed."

An old gravity system with long and short runs on same zone.  Could not heat it without long circulation and lower temps.

Multi zone systems are a special treat.  Most control systems require sensing each zone.  With the high circulation requirement of Exquisite Heat, only one cooler sample zone needs to be monitored and the balance of the remaining zones satisfy on the independent operation of the individual zone thermostat.  With a required circulation of the sample zone of 60-70% the remaining zones have the freedom to call up to 100% circulation or less to compensate for the immediate difference in heat loss or gain by the independent zones.  Few buildings have more than 30% heat loss difference between zones.

The unique feature for this hydrotherm - radiant combination system is the way Exquisite Heat increases circulation to all pipes and radiation with lower temperature water.  As a cold start boiler it will normally go all the way up to the design maximun temperature, which can cause early thermostat satisfaction without heating the entire building.  Thermostat analysis assists the system by adjusting the high limit downward, giving the system the ability to evenly distribute less than design degree temperatures on less than design degree days.  This evens the temperature throughout the building, satisfying the temperatuire needs with less variation in temperature within the heated spaces at lower temperatures.

Most folks complain about uneven temperatures within steam systems.  Exquisite Heat uses indoor thermostat analysis to adjust burner cycle BTU supply, at low operating pressures, far more precisely than pressure limit controls, and outdoor resets.  Indoor reset technolgy takes all heat loss factors into consideration at the thermostat.  Exquisite Heat together with careful management of insulation needs and proper air venting make steam system all as comfortable and efficient as any heating system can be. We love steam heat.

18 family co-op Yonkers NY,      " After being overheated for so many years, we have to get folks to turn on their baseboard thermostats.  That should even things out very well."  10/05 " The oil bills were definitely down from the year before. We used to crack sections from bad temperature control on single zone circulation.


 
private estate home:  "    The even comfort is amazing.  The basement is cooler and the house is warmer.  It makes sense to increase circulation of lower temperature water." one month later,  "To be honest, I don't even think about the heating any more. It works great."   One year later, " The heat is great."

Steam systems are a special case.  This building had boiler water level and surge problems due to the selection and location of the replacement boiler, as well as the relocation of replacement condensate returns.  Additional problems were addressed by reinsulating steam supply piping, rearrangement of venting rates, and replacing inoperable pressure devices on the boiler. 

Application of Exquisite Heat steam control technology to accurately determine the precise amount of steam to satisfy heat loss requirements made the building comfortable for the first time

High volume single zone gravity conversion.  Uneven heat. Roasting and freezing.  Exqheat lowered temps automatically for 70% circulation.  Everyone is comfortable for the first time.
25 fam 1 zone hot water
We started with an out of control 220 high limit boiler.  We installed a remote sensor thermostat on the fourth floor.  Exqheat lowered the temperature for 75% circulation on one zone.  What a difference. Actual savings are minimal as distribution put overheat into cold areas.  Needs a hot water storage system to reduce waste in summertime and need to overheat to maintain domestic hot water needs.

"We can now use rooms we could not in the past."  This is what happens when you distribute lower temperature water to the exact heat loss of the space, at high rates of circulation.  The warmth gets to the ends of the zones.  By using a standards of 70% circulation on one average sampling zone, allows any chillier zones to circulate up to 100% allowing the colder zone to take more BTU's when needed.  Warmer zones can reduce their circulation according the zone thermostat demand.  The sample zone will adjust boiler water exit temperatures to exact replacement of BTU' at 70% circulation rate. The sweet spot for boiler high limit is adjusted each hour up or down from the previous hours performance.  If the thermostat calls for more than 70% the high limit will be raised for the next hour.  If the thermostat calls less than 70%, the high limit will be reduced proportionally for the next hour.  Most times that temperature adjustment of High limit is betrween  .2 degrees to 2 degrees.

" The neat thing is I can use rooms I could never use before, due to poor circulation and high boiler temperatures.  The kids have closed the windows and use the same number of blankets.  I enjoy my den in the winter now."

Frequently asked questions.

How does "Exquisite heat" differ from outdoor temperature sensor controls?

We are adjusting boiler temperature to meet building thermostat setting with a fixed desired rate of circulation for even comfort. Outdoor reset does not determine even comfort. Outdoor reset does not take the interior comfort into account.  Some have indoor feedback to adjust outdoor settings. We are more accurate and simpler to install. We also do the job for less initial cost


Sunlight, wind, rate of heat loss of the building can all determine what the boiler should be doing. The thermostat inside the building interprets occupant desires as well. The thermostat is the ultimate weather responsive control.  They never knew how to adjust heating plant output from the thermostat before.

Exquisite Heat technology works with central steam zone valves, central hydronic zone controls, single or multiple zone buildings.
