Did you know? That you can reduce your energy
usage by setting your thermostats to optimum start and finish times.
Setting your timers to the
appropriate temperatures and correct operating hours. If staff enter the
workplace and it is cold then they may turn the heating up to full, and this
may increase the energy used, to heat the building up, so it may be a good idea
to set the temperature to warm up the building before the workers arrive. This
could also contribute to the prevention of your pipework freezing in the colder
weather.
Did you know? That heating costs rise by
approx. 8% for each 1 degree of overheating?
This is why it is so important to
ensure that you and all of you staff are trained on the usage of the heating
controls and the temperatures in which they need to be set at. There are a
variety of energy saving controls available to assist you with reducing your
energy usage.
Did you know? That you can provide spot
heating to particular parts of your building, where heat is required, using energy
efficient radiant heaters. This allows you to control where the heat in your
building is distributed should you have mixed temperature requirements.
Did you know? that you can recirculate your
heated air back to ground level, reducing heat loss through the ceiling?
For example if you are attempting
heat a church that has extremely high ceilings using warm air heaters, you
would need to push the heated air back down towards ground level, to provide
the heat where it's needed.
Did you know? that the minimum temperature
within the workplace is 16 degrees and for sedentary work this could be
increased to 20 degrees, although some working environments, may be exempt from
this for example if you work with chilled foods, where appropriate measures
such as PPE would be put into place to keep you warm in colder temperatures
Did you know? that the amount of window space
in your building can affect the type of heating you need?
This is because that 26% of your
buildings heat loss is through the windows. Double or Triple glazing could
reduce this, but will not eradicate it completely. That's why before you
consider a new heating installation a thorough heat loss calculation, can be
carried out to help you to understand the heating requirements for your building.
