John's Office Case Study

Switching from Air Conditioning to Infrared Heating

​

​

Introduction: John's Office, a small business located in a 26 square meter office space, recently made the decision to switch their heating source from their traditional air conditioning unit to Bezzo’s Alpha Series ceiling tile infrared heating panels. The air conditioning unit used to consume 5KW per hour and was in use for approximately 5 hours a day. The new infrared heating system only consumes 1.627KW per hour. This case study will outline the energy savings and benefits experienced by John's Office as a result of the switch.

​

Energy Savings: By switching to infrared heating, John's Office reduced their daily energy consumption from 25KW to 10.8KW, a 57% reduction. At the current electricity unit rate of 33p per KW, this translates to a daily savings of £4.69. Over the course of a year (based on 200 days), John's Office will save £938 in energy costs.

​

Benefits: Aside from the financial savings, there are a number of other benefits experienced by John's Office as a result of the switch to infrared heating.

 

These include:

1. Increased Comfort: Infrared heating provides a more comfortable and even heat distribution compared to traditional air conditioning. This has resulted in a more pleasant working environment for employees.

2. Improved Health and Wellness: Infrared heating does not dry out the air like traditional air conditioning, which can cause respiratory problems and dry skin. The more humid environment created by infrared heating can improve the health and wellness of employees.

3. Environmentally Friendly: Infrared heating is more environmentally friendly than traditional air conditioning as it consumes less energy and does not emit harmful pollutants.

4. Increased Productivity: The improved comfort and healthier environment created by infrared heating can lead to increased productivity among employees.

​

Conclusion: In conclusion, the switch to infrared heating has resulted in significant energy savings and numerous benefits for John's Office. The 57% reduction in energy consumption translates to a yearly saving of £938 and the improved comfort and healthier environment has had a positive impact on the productivity of employees. John's Office is thrilled with the decision to switch to infrared heating and would recommend it to any small business looking to reduce energy costs and improve their working environment.
