As oil price rises above $80, it’s time to consider a BMS system for your boiler

Brent crude oil has risen to $80.50 a barrel – the highest since November 2014, a very recent news report has been able to suggest.

The price hike was largely caused by OPEC who, at a meeting with the likes of Russia in Algiers ruled out any increase in output.

While this rise won’t immediately affect home owners using oil fired boilers for heating, they might start feeling the pinch over the next few months – and this is exactly the reason why they should also start thinking about optimizing the way their boilers are being used.

HeatingSave – the perfect system for optimizing oil-fired boilers

Installing a smart energy optimization system is likely to help even more when it comes to consumption and cost cutting, and this is specifically where HeatingSave could put its extensive experience to very good use.

The computer powered HeatingSave system calculates the amount of fuel used each day to prove to you the saving it can make over your existing heating control system.

HeatingSave goes one stage further than a ‘Smart Metering’ system as it controls the energy usage instead of just reporting it. For those using heating oil it estimates the litres of fuel used each day and predicts how much oil is left in the tank.

The HeatingSave Building Energy Management System helps customers save more than 30% on their bills by optimizing any heating system’s overall functionality. This is done by taking into account a variety of factors, such as internal and external temperatures, occupancy, time of the year, the particular characteristics of installed boilers, etc. All of the data is used in order to determine the best heating patterns for the various heating zones within any building, using our proprietary heat-loss algorithm.

The end result is that users still get a very good level of comfort, while in the same time saving energy and money in the process.
