See above for a graph showing space temperature before and after the site team’s intervention. External heating usage was minimised, seeing a steep drop in temperature.
Scenario.
Armed with real-time, granular data from the Utopi Platform, one PBSA client was able to identify a resident using an external heater in a TRV controlled space, and after engagement, saw a drop in temperature of 14°C.
This client had utilised Utopi’s Smart TRV energy control measures to control the average site temperature of the asset. After the maximum asset temperature was reduced to 27°C in individual spaces, a space was found to still be significantly overheated.
The site team was notified by our Impact Team of this outlier, going up to 39°C.
Resolution.
After conversations with the resident, the space temperature decreased from 39°C to 25°C within 24 hours, a decrease of 12°C.
