Optimizing the secondary heating network

Clos Fleuri residential building

>>  Collective heating energy savings

OUR CLIENT'S CHALLENGE - When it comes to collective housing, a potential source of energy savings involves optimizing heating network performance. Following a full heating network overhaul in the Clos Fleuri residential building in Montesson, Promaiga SN aimed to provide its client with a detailed heating network balancing assessment which also took user comfort into account.

136 dwellings

17 columns

Over 190 balancing components

OFIS' SOLUTION - OFIS defined a pragmatic approach to combining occupant well-being with energy savings:

  • Onsite heating system readings, while identifying standard building and accommodation characteristics (insulation, ventilation, etc.);
  • A hydraulic heating network simulation, including heat loss and flow calculations to be applied to the network;
  • Network distribution diagrams with adjustment devices indicated;
  • Onsite adjusting of balancing components, located at the base of the column;
  • A complete report when the work is finished.
