Focus on "open hall doors"

"Heating with the windows open" in private households is like "heating with the doors open" in production halls and warehouses. It's great if you can afford this in industry and commerce because production and business are obviously running - unfortunately, this is not a matter of course for many companies in times of coronavirus.

But the question arises: can we afford to simply burn off expensive heat through open hall doors in winter?

The hot topic of "open warehouse doors" is a hotly debated issue. Most of all between those who are responsible for reducing operating costs in companies and those who are responsible for ensuring that production and delivery processes run as smoothly as possible. Who thinks about closing doors during day-to-day business that will have to be opened again shortly afterwards anyway?

Proven solutions to this problem rely on digital intelligence to control hall heating systems. Special tools record the processes at the doors and switch off the heaters specifically for the time they are open. Over the heating period, this ensures a significant reduction in energy consumption and costs. At a company in Laubach, the door opening times were recorded and optimized in this way - this alone significantly reduced operating costs. Interestingly, these solutions can be easily retrofitted as modules in existing control systems.

Would you like to find out more about these control solutions? No problem! You can reach the hall heating specialists at KÜBLER under Contact.

  • Whether in metalworking shops, joineries, welding shops, car dealerships or railroad companies - workshop heating systems ensure warm working conditions in the workshops when it gets cold outside. But what requirements - apart from heat generation, of course - can you place on a modern heating system today? And what do you need to pay attention to if you want your investment to continue to pay off in many years' time?
  • Back in July 2022, the BMWK published its concept paper on the amendment to the Building Energy Act (GEG), thereby not only causing hopeless uncertainty, but also preventing investment in necessary energy-efficient renovations. First things first: the amendment has not yet been passed - and it is questionable whether it will actually be passed 1:1. Because if you trust Struck's law, a law does not usually leave parliament in the form in which it was introduced.
  • The BMWK is currently causing a stir with a draft bill. This is because it involves a categorical ban on gas heating systems. According to the plan, from 2024, only heating systems powered by 65 % renewable energies may be used. Formally, this can only be heat pumps, district heating or biomass heating. This raises the question: what about the openness of technology in Germany? And who should pay for it? Decentralized gas-powered heating systems are often the only economically and functionally viable solutions, especially in hall buildings.
  • In comparison, fan heaters rely on the distribution of warm air. This method causes the air in the hall to rise, with the warmest areas being directly under the ceiling. It therefore takes significantly longer for the work area to warm up, which leads to higher energy consumption. This difference makes infrared heating systems particularly energy-efficient, […]
