Balancing existing installations
The City of Brussels technical services department is responsible for managing HVAC installations in around300 buildings in the city. Joris De Leeuw, head of the special technology department at the City of Brussels: “Of course we want to save as much energy and offer users as much comfort as possible. Hysopt helps us improve existing hydraulics in buildings by rebalancing them and greatly reducing gas consumption.”
Large installation simulations
“We can simulate the behaviour of installations to find out which components need to be replaced, or where adjustments to the pipes network are required. We can see how the installation performs in terms of comfort and energy consumption, which we couldn’t do before,” concludes Joris De Leeuw.
