How does the system work?
The central boiler plant is fuelled by Natural Gas. Hot water from the central plant is pumped around the building as required to supply each apartment. There is a heat interface unit (HIU) in each apartment that converts this hot water into heating and domestic hot water. Local controls in each apartment enables customers to easily set their time schedules and temperatures to match their own requirements.
How do I operate the heating system?
The heating system is operable via the Danfoss time-clock located on the wall inside the apartment. The operating instructions for this unit can be found in the information booklet supplied to each apartment or you can view these short videos that simply explain how to program your heating:
How do I control the temperature?
The temperature is controlled via the thermostat which is part of the Danfoss time-clock located on the wall inside the apartment. You may also have thermostatic valves on your radiators to control local temperatures in each room.
Do I need to program my Hot water?
No. Hot water is supplied instantly through a plate heat exchanger so there is no need to schedule your water use.
How are meter readings taken?
Meter readings are recorded for individual apartments via a central processing unit located within the central plant of the apartment complex; therefore, access to apartments is not required to take individual meter readings. Readings will be based on actual recordings of units consumed and not on estimated units of energy consumption.
