Long Christmas break? Lower the heating temperature now!
March 5, 2021
Not only politicians have pulled the ripcord, many companies are also planning to extend the Christmas break and shut down operations at least until the second week of January. Machines will be at a standstill for weeks and the doors to the factory buildings will remain closed.
To avoid burning unnecessary money in addition to the high costs of downtime, you should adjust the heating operation. Many systems today are equipped with modern control software that makes it easy to adjust the operating times. But manual conversion also pays off.
The expert's recommendation:
- Use the vacation mode setting. You can regulate the heating system down to 8 °C during the Christmas break, provided your general conditions allow this. This temperature is sufficient to ensure that the building does not cool down completely and that the operating temperature can be reached again quickly if required.
- Switch back to normal operation at the weekend before starting work. The system will run at the setback temperature according to your settings and resume normal operation on Monday.
Depending on the size of your system, reducing the temperature will save you several thousand euros. A sum that you can certainly budget for in the coming financial year. Perhaps even to toast a happy, healthy and successful new year together with your employees?

"No energy transition without energy efficiency" is the title of dena's "Topics and projects" section on its homepage "The best kilowatt hour is the one saved," says Thomas Kübler, Managing Partner of KÜBLER GmbH. Both mean the same thing: It's about curbing energy consumption in general and especially in companies. Because this is an enormous lever for achieving climate targets. And that's not all: energy efficiency also pays off economically if it is approached in the right technological way. Modern infrared heating technology plays an important role here, especially when it is intelligently combined with Bennwert technology. -
While Germany is discussing the energy transition, KÜBLER GmbH from Ludwigshafen has already delivered. FUTURA is the name of the latest invention from the experts for hall heating systems - and it works regardless of the energy source: the infrared heating system for halls uses hydrogen, electricity, gas or a mix of these. It can process green and fossil fuels highly efficiently, thus building a bridge to the carbon-free era. This is one of the reasons why the Investitions- und Strukturbank Rheinland-Pfalz (ISB) and the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Transport, Agriculture and Viticulture awarded KÜBLER the special prize "Innovative Technologies for Climate Protection" at the SUCCESS Innovation Award on Tuesday evening. -
Anyone who operates one of the approximately 360,000 hall buildings that have been built in Germany since the 1960s has certainly already got cold feet this winter. It is quite likely that the heating systems in these halls are over 20 years old and are likely to cause regular malfunctions or even production stoppages. Not to mention the high heating costs or the trouble with employees and the works council. -
The decision on the Heating Act (Building Energy Act - GEG) has been made, but the questions remain. But there is no need to worry: the legislator has provided for generous transition periods, technological openness and pragmatic, affordable regulations for the gradual move towards climate-neutral heating by 2045.
