GROUP 3 - CONTROL SYSTEMS

- Solar- and shadowcontrol
- Top effect regulator
- Temperature regulator

Using too advanced control systems are costly, often complicated to understand and to operate. The risk of breakdown resulting in costly repairs occur.It is recommended to use as uncomplicated controls as possible – alternatively no controls.

Solar- and shadowcontrol

Unrestricted use of glass can lead to overheating and increased cooling need. Avoiding or minimalising challenges resulting for overdone glass use is recommended and instead go for wise local climate based design. Should the need for shade still arise, vegetatiosn and robust building elements are recommended first and foremost. If unsufficient and automatic shadow control is necessary, uncomplicated to operate and external shades with as few as påossibløe moving parts is preferable.

Top effect regulator

Where local energy tarifs are constructed with a compopnent of high costs for top effect although the top effect only might occur a few moments,it might pay off to install regulators that foe example cuts out or reduces certain loads like part of the heat, light, washing maschine or other water heating in a peak load period. This will hold the top effect at a lower level and save costs.

Temperature regulator (night or other timeset)

Lowering the room temperature in well insulated houses do not reduce the annual energy bill much ! Night regulation or other time switches has hence not the same effect as in less insulated and air tight houses. The reason is this : Well insulated houses have only a bvery little and in periods non existing need for commercial heat.
