BACKGROUND

Domestic hot water is the major source of energy consumption with an average of 20 kwh/sq.m/year for a 120 sq.m house. Domestic hot water production equipment manufacturers aim at developing solutions that would allow rational use in order to improve user’s comfort as well as reducing both water and energy consumption.

HOW IT WORKS

CLINE MANAGER displays the amount of energy and useful heat that is available in a heat storage reservoir.

Our system uses sensors comprising heat sensitive electrical components.

Thermoelectric breakers switch on/off according to the temperature level, therefore inducing a change in electrical signal. The value of this electrical signal gives an indication of charging state in the energy storage system.
