Heat Production
Sustainable heat generation in the TRIAS rental property in the Upper Valais: self-sufficient heating using the power of the sun and air
Heat and hot water generation in the building is based on an intelligent, forward-looking concept that makes optimal use of nature and allows you to benefit directly from low service charges.
The energy system and spatial concept in detail:
Heating with your own solar energy: A state-of-the-art air-to-water heat pump generates the heating for the entire building. The key feature: A large proportion of the electricity required for operation is produced directly by the building’s own photovoltaic (PV) system on the roof. You therefore heat your home in an almost carbon-neutral way using your own green electricity.
Well-thought-out, spacious floor plans: During the planning of the flats, great care was taken to ensure an optimal layout. The floor plans are designed so that the living areas benefit as much as possible from natural light and heat.
The sun as a natural heating source (solar gains): The large window fronts are precisely aligned to capture the energy of the low winter sun and naturally help to heat the interior. This saves valuable heating energy.
