NEW CONTROLLER IS A BREATH OF FRESH AIR FOR AIR CONDITIONING
CP Electronics has launched a new PIR – a surface mounted controller that provides auto on / auto off switching of infrared controlled air conditioning ( AC ) units .
Battery powered , easy to install and adjustable via a simple push button operation , the intelligent PIR learns the infrared code of an AC unit , overrides the on / off commands and regulates the use based on room occupancy . As a result , significant energy savings can be achieved .
The GESM-AC is compatible with the majority of infrared controlled air conditioning units . It is also capable of going into sleep mode and waking up on detection , to save battery life . The timeout period can be set , making installation and set-up simple .
Suitable for any room that has an AC unit in place , the AC controller is ideal for healthcare applications , classrooms and small meeting rooms ; where air conditioning is not always turned off when occupants leave a room . It is also well suited to countries with hot climates where air conditioning is commonly used within buildings .
John Mercer , senior product manager for CP Electronics commented , ‘ The main benefit of implementing energy controls is that energy is not wasted , such as when air conditioning units are left on when occupants leave a room .
‘ By integrating our energy controls with AC units , even greater energy and cost savings can be realised , giving building owners , occupants , and facilities managers one less thing to think about .’
The new GESM-AC is part of CP Electronics ’ established green-i range of products , an off-theshelf solution for greater energy efficiency .

TACKLING OVERHEATING IN CITY CENTRE APARTMENTS
The new Zeroth Energy System from Glen Dimplex Heating & Ventilation ( GDHV ) offers an innovative new approach to heating and cooling city apartments which is set to revolutionise the way we heat multi-occupancy residential buildings .
By creating a series of ‘ energy loops ’ within the building , Zeroth replaces conventional high temperature systems with a cool , low pressure system , maintained by the building ’ s central plant room .
Low temperature water flows around the building ’ s main loop to each apartment , which all have their own ‘ mini loop ’ where an individual heat pump produces heated or chilled water to the desired temperature . The water can then be passed to fan coils , which deliver warm or cold air into a room through vents in the ceiling or wall , or to underfloor heating , or smart electrical , fan assisted wet radiators .
It means more comfortable temperatures within apartments and reduced overheating in communal areas . What ’ s more , the cost of heating system losses is no longer spread across all residents , which means they only pay for the heating or cooling they use .
