Heating Problems and Solutions

Today's special topic is as mentioned above.


Let's all look at what it is all about.

Hello! I am Hylton Upshon, working at Heat-Well, an upcoming Heat-mapping Company in New Delhi. Do you know where your insulation gaps are? As the winter months arrive and much of Northern India braces itself for icy weather, we take to the streets to let homeowners know exactly where their heating expenses are escaping. We provide suggestions about how to make your homes more energy efficient. We drive around as many streets as possible, taking pictures of people’s homes in our SUV, equipped with infrared cameras, heat-mapping whatever homes are visible on both sides of the street.


 

The photos give a quick assessment of each structure’s thermal envelope and highlight areas where heat is escaping into the outside air. In blobs of colour ranging from black-coldest-to purple, orange and yellow which is the hottest, the images can be used as a thermal map to prioritize areas that need extra insulation, usually around windows, eaves and spaces between floors. The images are then processed on the company’s software and stored on a secure server. Homeowners can then type in their addresses to see if their homes have been covered and get a free assessment.

 

Heat-Well can then recommend local insulation companies, window installers etc. that can provide fittings to help plug the gaps. The only challenge that we face is the concern for privacy, expressed by the people, but we at Heat-Well insist that our cameras cannot see through walls or windows. So it is impossible to see people or objects inside the buildings. Also, the images are stored on a secure server and homeowners can also opt out of the program and have the photos deleted at their request.

 

It can be proved that about 50 per cent of household energy waste results from breaches in a home’s heat envelope. The company estimates that residential buildings can easily save Rupees 37,000 to 75,000 per year.
