Electronic heat cost allocators

Electronic heat cost allocators only measures the actual consumption in a home and can be read remotely daily at short intervals. Actual measurements ensure a fair cost allocation because people only pay for their own heating consumption and we find daily readings optimal, because they give the consumer continuous access to new information and the opportunity to change habits when required.

Electronic heat cost allocators can distinguish between heat transmitted to the radiator from the heating system (plus heat) and heat transmitted to the radiator from the surroundings (minus heat). Only heating from the central heating system is registered as consumption.

The use of heat allocators is a simple and recognised method for distribution of cost for energy consumption between apartments in a building. Based on the indication (reading) of the heat allocators, an individual payment can be carried out. The heat cost allocator requires a heat metering at the building level.

Just like heat energy meters, electronic heat cost allocators can be adapted for remote reading, thus eliminating the need to enter individual apartments for meter reading.It should be pointed out that heat allocators are not energy meters but meters transforming the temperature of the radiator to a registration on the heat allocator.
