Save Energy With KNX
A breath of fresh air with KNX
Climate Protection with KNX
The struggle of the European Union to agree on CO2 limits revealed once again there is still a lot to be done for the protection of the climate.
The environmental goals for residential buildings are definitely achievable. Investments into energy savings measures will be necessary in many cases to avoid the loss of property value or empty rental dwellings.
KNX is synonymous for intelligence and energy efficiency in buildings, only the KNX building system technology will provide the key for a reliable energy efficient solution for architects, designers and developers, it is the worlds only open standard for home and building control.
Efficient and Intelligent with KNX
Given the rising costs of energy and the climate change it is becoming essential to design and operate residential buildings energy efficiently. Low energy and material consumption conserve nature and budget, and it therefore has a double impact on improving the quality of life.
The generation of today have different demands and expectations for their home and want to invest into a modern, comfortable and energy efficient environment that will stand the test of time. It is important for today's generation to have central control functions for lighting control, curtain/blind control, heating, air-conditioning control, remote control, data logging and audio/video control through out the home.
Energy savings With KNX
The control of an environmentally friendly heating technology with KNX turns out to be a key factor for profitability. Efficient heating systems that are used today in modern residential buildings like the heat pump are further optimised through using the KNX control system.
About 33% of the entire energy consumption of a residential building is used for heating. From a certain point on, this high energy demand can only be reduced with an intelligent control system like KNX.
Current studies prove that the application of KNX technology can significantly reduce the energy budget within the home, the achievement of a higher comfort standard in residential buildings through using the KNX system has been a long known fact but developers in the UK have been very slow on the uptake even though this level of intelligent building control not only increases the living comfort but also plays a significant role in reducing energy costs for the home owner with up to 40% savings - if one considers the ever rising costs of energy prices, the small investment into a home for intelligent building control seems to be very reasonable, especially if they pay back within a few years and offer expandability for additional comfort functions, all this along with future proofing and adding value to the property.
