Construction preventing structural damage with infrared cameras

Show what is usually invisible to the human eye?

With the infrared you can. The speech in a sense is simple, albeit in greater depth in the study: any object at a higher temperature to -273 ° C emits infrared radiation detectable through special device.

We talk for example of the cameras for the detection of air infiltration and water damage, able to precisely identify damage and allow a detailed analysis of non-contact temperature thermal images. Thermography in fact not damage the surfaces inspected question precisely because of that analysis to take photographs of the infrared energy emitted normally from any body. Via therefore, strictly at the hands of technicians specialized in the diagnosis of problems of any kind: losses of hot water, underfloor heating systems with loss or non-functioning, rising damp, mold, leaks and so on.

Home automation: what it is, what benefits it provides

The discipline that deals with the study of technologies to improve the quality of life in the home through automation.

With a system you can control and manage multiple devices within the home, safety (gas leaks, fire, flood, intrusion, CCTV, technical alarms, emergency calls), air conditioning (boilers, air conditioners, temperatures in the various environments), lighting, engines (curtains, blinds, shutters, overhead doors, gates, doors), electrical outlets, electrical consumption, communication (telephony / data, video-intercom), multimedia (TV SAT, home cinema, audio broadcasting / video), irrigation, appliances, etc..

Solar heating and cooling systems: air conditioners with solar energy

Solar thermal uses the sun's heat directly. The solar heating and cooling systems are based on a very simple principle and known for centuries: the sun heats the water contained in a dark vessel. The technologies for the exploitation of solar thermal energy available in the market are efficient and widespread. The fields of application are different from the hot water for domestic space heating in residential and commercial buildings, by conditioning the process of industrial heating and desalination of drinking water.

The heating water for domestic use is without a doubt the most common application at the moment, so much so that in some countries it has become a very common feature in the design of residential buildings.

Innovative heating system: radiant panels

An innovative system to heat our indoor environments is represented by the so-called "radiant". The "mission" at the base of its operation is easily summarized: to maximize the surface area of ​​the heat emission, reducing the operating temperature of the system. For this, the radiating system is composed of pipes inside which water is circulated to the average temperature that can go from 30 to 40 ° C, which are "spread out" over large surfaces radians. The material they are made of the tubes can be polyethylene, polybutylene, polypropylene, or copper, and the geometry of the laying to be preferred is that defined "spiral" or "spiral" in which the circuit of water flow is parallel to that in output of the same.

Underfloor heating systems

There are several ways of implementing a radiant panel system, linked to the type of structural support that can be used: floor, wall, ceiling.

What is geothermal home energy?

Geothermal home, more properly called low enthalpy geothermal energy, is the technology that allows you to heat and cool a room by exploiting the temperature difference between the outer layers of the Earth's crust and the external environment. This technology involves the exploitation of ground water and is suitable for a wide range of construction and any geographical location.

The low enthalpy geothermal energy can be installed in place of traditional heating systems, when combined with a thermal buonisolamento and maybe even a radiant heating system, offers significant economic and environmental benefits. Not actually represents a real technological breakthrough in fact in the countries of Northern Europe is widely exploited for over 30 years.

Types and working of condensing boilers

The continuously increasing cost of fuel has led the industry to create products that are more efficient and less polluting.

Thus were born the boilers "condensing". This name derives from the fact that in the boiler there is a particular exchanger that captures the heat of the exhaust fumes (which would otherwise be lost along with the flue gas), up to to condense the exhaust gases to be able to capture that heat (latent heat) that is trapped in the water vapor.

Overview and types of boilers

Replace your old boiler with a new boiler conception involves a quantifiable energy savings of 25-30%. In the market there are different types, distinguished according to the principle of operation and the fuel used.

Low temperature boiler with fuel oil or gas

The low temperature boilers represent the minimum standard acceptable. They are able to modulate the power delivered by adapting to specific requests and have yield between 85 and 92%. The cost of buying a fuel oil boiler and that of a gas boiler is not very different, while the cost of running a fuel oil boiler is decidedly greater than that of a gas boiler (natural gas).

New Features of Google in the search market

Thanks to new tools and proceeds from asset Google search engine, a tool for the analysis and development of the economy up to the expectation of market trends. With the key figure of the Chief Economist Hal Varian.

Google search engine for people, marketing and communication tool for businesses as well as analysis and promotion of their business. Not only that, Google engine of economic growth as well as tools to identify economic trends and prevent future market trends.

Water purification: new technologies

Recent research on the treatment of water intended for human consumption have produced and are investigating, in a totally independent of each other, several new systems that are in addition to those classics, competing for originality, cost and possibility of use in developing countries .

The Moringa oleifera, also known as the miracle tree for its amazing quality and countless (provides food, water, fuel and other environmentally difficult), is a plant common in most of the tropical and equatorial band on the planet, and has been object of study by researchers funded by a program of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to optimize a system for water treatment that exploits the seeds of the drumstick tree, another tree that epithet refers to the shape of its fruit.

Heating systems: advice, adjustments, maintenance

The heating systems are particularly suitable for self-family homes. When buildings have more than 3-4 apartments is more convenient the central heating system, coupled to a system of individual accounts of the heat (so you pay according to the consumption of each family), as, for equal heat, a central boiler is more efficient of all the individual plants.

The heating is regulated by Decrees 412/93 and 551/99. The manager is the householder (owner or tenant), which is responsible for the security and the efficient management of the system.
