HG HomeClub looks at hundreds of articles every day. We choose the best ones to share with our readers. This gives you a quick look at what's happening in the home improvement industry. The article below is one we picked. Innovative technologies are paving the way for significant advancements in energy efficiency within the built environment. As reported by Door and Window Market [DWM] magazine, the U.S. Department of Energy has awarded a substantial $14.5 million grant to AeroShield Materials for developing aerogel-based insulating glass units. This groundbreaking technology promises to revolutionize window insulation, offering up to 65% improvement in energy performance compared to traditional double-pane windows. AeroShield's transparent silica aerogel, which is lighter than a marshmallow yet twice as insulating as air, demonstrates the potential for dramatic energy savings in both residential and commercial buildings. This investment not only highlights the critical role of windows in building efficiency but also underscores the government's commitment to fostering sustainable, energy-efficient solutions in the construction industry.

This month we received very interesting study results from the Swedish construction and building maintenance business! 🗒 Our survey group consisted of 100 decision makers and experts in roof maintenance and roof inspection sectors who have the authority to make renovation decisions. The study was conducted over the phone by a third-party company to further study the market and to find out how interesting our VILPE Sense smart roof system is. 📞🛠👨🔧👩🔧 Interesting results include: 49 % of all participating professionals considered our smart roof system interesting or very interesting. 💡 38 % of all participants would likely or very likely include our system in their projects when explained the costs. ✅ 25 % of all participants think that a monitoring system should be mandatory on a roof. 🤔 These results point to a huge unrealized market potential for bringing roofs to the same total building automation systems as energy, water, ventilation etc. 💵 We'll publish a more complete white paper about the study in the coming months and we are already planning our next market survey. We are also continuing our scientific smart roof research with third parties as well as our internal VILPE Sense R&D. We'll have so much material coming out this spring that we are actually expanding our communications team (lucky for me! 😅). Stay tuned! Major announcements coming soon 😉 #vilpe #vilpesense #smartroof #buildingautomation #predictivemaintenance #roofleak #roofing #roofingcontractor #tak #smartcities #facilitiesmanagement #facilitymanager #realestate

INTRODUCING THERMAWEDGE 🎉 The long-awaited solution is here! Our product is the only solution that ensures complete insulation coverage at all angles of a property’s pitched roof. Based in the #NorthEast, our team brings over 25 years of experience in loft insulation. Seeing the recurring coverage issue, we knew a fix was needed. That fix is Thermawedge. We are currently working with Salford Energy House at The University of Salford to finalise the positive test results for our product. Why mention this today? Today, the 2023 edition of The Future Homes and Buildings Standards is active, with changes to Part 6, Part L (conservation of fuel and power), and Part F (ventilation) of the Building Regulations, seeking evidence on previous changes to Part O (overheating). Our product supports these changes! In the upcoming weeks, we’ll provide more details on Thermawedge. Follow along to see why it's the solution for you! 👉🏽 #teesside #energyefficiency #ventilation

I recently had the pleasure of presenting at The Green Register's Twilight Talk, where I introduced www.nomoregas.org to a wide audience. The discussions that followed have already begun to bear fruit. One attendee directed me towards Trianco, and through them, I discovered their new indoor heat pumps. Heat pumps are our favourite heat engines, but they often prove impractical or too expensive for many small, leaky homes and most flats with no outside space. In our research while building No More Gas, we sought small indoor heat pumps suitable for flats. At the time, there were few viable options, many still in development with limited use cases. This landscape is changing with Trianco Arctivair’s launch of new 5kW and 7kW models. These higher capacity units offer more flexibility, making them suitable for flats up to 150m². Combined with the Sunamp Thermino heat battery, Mixergy tanks, or infrared heating, they provide an efficient, space-saving solution for both heating and hot water needs. These new models significantly expand the range of cases where we won’t need a gas boiler anymore, marking a step forward towards sustainable heating solutions. Has anyone tested their smaller 3kW model, currently on the market? #Sustainability #GreenEnergy #NoMoreGas #HeatPumps #EcologicalDesign

With three outdated 12,000 MBH appliances, limited space and minimal allowable disruptions, #highrise Century Plaza Towers in Southern California needed to improve energy efficiency and reduce CO2 emissions. ENERVEX Inc. provided a comprehensive solution for the 18 new 2,000 MBH appliances specified by the #MEP consultant... ✅ Three separate 18"ID Powerstack vent systems - each serving six appliances. ✅ Constant pressure, variable volume mechanical draft system for each vent system. ✅ Each mechanical draft system equipped with two termination-mounted chimney fans for redundancy. ✅ Combustion air fan's controller upgraded to allow the system to fully modulate based upon appliance demand.

While many products in the market are competitors, a recent article sheds light on the challenges of retrofit insulation, especially in space-constrained areas. ThermaGEL's VIP panels stand out with a significantly lower price tag compared to other products mentioned, along with lower embodied carbon content. #insulation #ThermaGEL #retrofit #VIPpanels
