Energy Conservation

• Existing Technology can reduce energy use
  20-30.. (Insulation, window replacement, new
  boilers.)
• Exquisite Heat addresses boiler energy delivery
  and management.
• NOW!

4
Fuel Shortage / Greenhouse Gases

• Oil Peaked in 2006.
• We must reduce Greenhouse gases going up the
  chimney, any way we can, as soon as possible.
• Wind and solar are 1.5 of our Energy, growing at
  20 per year. Do the numbers. Long time to go.
• Conservation is the way to go.
• 20-30 now with existing technology.

11
It has been suggested that we use as much energy
to air condition (electricity) as a country as we
do to heat.
12
Energy act 2007

• Hot Water boiler manufacturers for heating must
  provide a means for adjusting output to actual
  heat load by September/2015. (5yrs.)
• Exquisite Heat Indoor Reset technology is the
  ideal solution.

13
Exquisite Heat is a new method of distributing
heating and air conditioning for improved comfort
and efficiency
14
Savings

• Every building has its own relationship with the
  heating system. (They are all different)
• Outdoor Reset controls can save 10-15.
• Exquisite Heat ranges from 5-30.
• Most companies will advertise 15 to stay out of
  trouble.

15
Applications

• To date our applications have been to the
  residential energy market. Our potential for the
  Industrial and Commercial Markets is just
  beginning. We do not see any immediate
  transportation opportunities.

16
Competition

• New boilers come with outdoor reset controls. (
  been around for 50 years)
• Are we heating the out of doors ???
• Exquisite Heat is the only indoor reset control

17
Others in Marketplace

• Honeywell AQ 2000 series (outdoor/indoor)
• Tekmar Controls (comb. outdoor/indoor)
• Heat Timer (outdoor/ indoor combination)
• Outdoor reset Controls ( 50 years on the market)
• Variable Speed Control fans and motors.
• Modulating heating and cooling equipment.

18
These are expensive technologies requiring
extensive system modification. Exquisite Heat
attaches easily to new or existing system in 2-4
hours.
19
Objections.

• Engineers do not like solutions from outside
  companies.
• Takes a long time to understand new things.
• Companies do not like to pay royalties.
• They can engineer around it.
• They want the simplest way out, not necessarily
  the best way to save energy.
• Contractors look for big (rip it out work).

20

Problem

• The need for Thermostat analysis for the purpose
  of changing source output.
• (Boiler, furnace, heat pump, AC, steam boiler,
  steam zone valve, hydronic sub loop, geothermal
  pumps, solar heating)

45
Any questions about the problem?

• Before we move on.

46
Solution

• If we can set the boiler temperature to satisfy
  the building heat loss needs, from the room
  thermostat, with even circulation for even
  comfort, we have solved the problem of comfort
  and efficiency.

Advantages over Competition

• Thermostat activity takes all heat loss and gain
  factors into consideration.
• Building Changes.( other efficiency strategies)
• Works with new and older systems.
• Even circulation in all rooms.
• Compensates for the building envelope under all
  weather conditions. ( sun, wind, occupancy,
  modifications, changing windows, insulation)

67
What happened?

• A changed philosophy of boiler control.
• The new goal is to satisfy an Ideal Thermostat
  Demand.
• As Actual Demand changes in relation to Ideal
  Demand, the heating or cooling output can be
  adjusted every minute of every hour.

68
Exquisite Heat delivers precision comfort, more
efficiently over other technologies.

Assumption 1

• Increased circulation delivers even comfort.

76
Assumption 2.

• The closer the heating plant temperature is to
  the room temperature requirement, the more fuel
  efficient the system.

77
Thermostat

• The thermostat takes all heat loss and heat gain
  into consideration.
• The customer can adjust thermostat for personal
  comfort.
• Thermostat activity can be used to adjust
  boiler, HVAC output to satisfy the space with
  ideal circulation.
• The thermostat and energy source interact for
  comfort and efficiency.

Ideal Demand Ratio

• A preset thermostat On ratio 70
• The circulation rate at which the heat source is
  providing the precise BTU supply for satisfaction
  and comfort distribution.
• Thermostat On Circulation On

80
Constant

• Ideal Thermostat Demand Ratio gives us a constant
  for comparison and adjustment.

81
Actual Thermostat Demand Ratio

• The actual proportion of time a thermostat
  calls for comfortable heat in a given period of
  time. (60 minutes)
• ADR

82
Actual Demand Ratio

• Control takes thermostat on/off status reading
  every second.
• 60 samples/minute x 60minutes
• 3600 samples per hour.
• If thermostat is on for 2520 times/3600 samples,
  the actual demand ratio
• 2520/3600 .70 70

83
What information do we need?

• Previous hour adjusted High Limit Temperature
  150 degrees F
• Actual Demand Ratio.
• Period of analysis 60 minutes (5-90 min)

84
Temperature change factor

• Ideal demand ratio .70
• Actual demand ratio .75
• ((ADR-IDR) x10) TCF
• ratio difference .75 - .70 .05
• Temperature Change Factor .05 x 10 .5
• Temperature change factor .5

85
Temperature Change Increment

• Temp change increment is an arbitrary factor we
  use to determine the degree of response we want
  to make in the adjustment with the temperature
  change factor.
• 1 F x .5 .5 F
• 2 F x .5 1 F
• 3 F x .5 1.5 F

86
New High Limit Temp calculation

• Current High Temp Limit 150 F

92
Minute to Minute Comfort

• Between analysis within the hour, the thermostat
  can increase the call for heat/cool, by running
  more or less than the Ideal Demand ratio of 70
• If chillier the thermostat can run up to 100.
• If warmer the thermostat runs less than 70.
• The thermostat always responds to the call.
• We only use TT information for analysis.

93
Outdoor reset

• Time lag from temp change to interior heat loss
• Sensor is subject to wet, wind, placement
• Subject to a fixed curve.
• Buildings react to a combination of heat loss
  factors. windows, insulation, structure,
  Occupancy, thermostat setting,
• Over and Under heating.

95
Domestic Hot Water

• A Second sensor is provided to monitor domestic
  hot water. If the Thermostat does not call for
  heat for one hour the second thermistor is used
  to satisfy domestic hot water limit temperatures.
  (120F-150F)

96
Multi Zone Satisfaction

• Most cases are satisfied by attaching analysis
  zone to central zone in system. The rest of the
  zones will float with variable circulation for
  the hour.

What has been done

• Changed the philosophy of boiler control.
• The new goal is to give heat to satisfy a fixed
  Ideal Thermostat Demand ratio.
• We adjust the boiler output to meet that Ideal
  demand at the thermostat.
• We provide a more comfortable and more efficient
  method of heating interior space.

103
Shut Down

• In the event of a control shut down
• Power failure
• Computer switches disconnect control relay off
  and returns HVAC to in series factory low voltage
  fire controls.

104
Alarms

• Normally open or closed alarm relay is activated
  upon shut down, or safety settings.
• Trigger local alarm, communicator, or security
  system.
• Alarm central or direct dialer to owner and/or
  contractor.
• Additional flood, heat, smoke detection.

105
Energy act 2007

• The law now provides that boiler manufacturers
  for hot water heating must provide a means for
  adjusting out put to actual heat load by 2015.
• Exquisite Heat is the ideal solution.
• We want you to try the product on your lab or
  sample home at your location.
