Styrvel seeks to make commercial buildings more energy efficient by providing a simple, cost-effective solution that will reduce heating costs and CO2 emissions by 20 to 30%.
“Regular thermostatic radiator valves have to be adjusted manually, so continual regulation is not practical. Our IoT-based system solves the problem with smart radiator valves, room sensors, unique wireless technology and a cloud-based control platform,” says Cato Skibsted Fagermo, founder and director of Styrvel.
With wireless units, Styrvel forms a network that enables remote control of temperatures using a mobile app or a computer. The owner of the building can plan temperature settings for periods when the building is not in use, while tenants and users can make adjustments locally.
“It is quick and problem-free to install – it can be done in a day – regardless of the size of the building. Unlike the usual solutions, our system does not require infrastructure such as routers, repeaters or building automation systems. It means upgrades are easy, without extensive alterations. The solution is in line with coming EU regulations for energy efficiency in buildings, and will help towards compliance at a fraction of the costs of alterations,” says Cato Skibsted Fagermo.
He continues: “Besides optimising the heating, the system also improves the indoor climate (IAQ) by monitoring temperatures, humidity and CO2 levels, which results in a healthier and more comfortable environment.”
Styrvel’s solution is designed for large buildings such as offices, hotels, hospitals, retail shops, schools, universities, industrial buildings and multi-family housing.
