Diagnose the energy performance of your buildings and check the quality of the insulation of infrastructures such as the building, the roof, and the detection of thermal bridges

• Set up the right temperature: 19°C for occupied rooms, 16°C outside periods of occupation, 8°C if the premises are unoccupied for more than two days. Because 1°C less means 7% less heating consumption
• Close the shutters or blinds at night, to maintain a good indoor temperature
• Check seals and door closers to preserve/maintain the temperature inside your premises as much as possible
• Clean and maintain the filters of your heating equipment (production and distribution) to optimise the life of your equipment and guarantee the quality of the air in your premises
• Maintaining your boiler regularly to ensure it operates properly and extend its life also helps to avoid a potential increase in energy consumption of around 8% to 12%
• Insulate pipes carrying thermal fluids (hot water, heating, ventilation)
• Clearing the heating circuits (purging your networks) helps to avoid a loss of efficiency of around 17%. Installing a sludge trap can provide a more durable semi-automated solution.
• Review the possibility of installing a centralised and automated control system of your heating to reduce energy waste by up to 20%
• Install a heat recovery unit on your cooling unit to supply your heating circuit

• In the summer, the ideal temperature in your premises is 26°C. Increasing the temperature by 1°C to reach the set temperature allows you to reduce the annual consumption of your equipment by 5 to 10%
• Set the temperature to a maximum of 4°C less than the outside temperature, without falling below the set temperature of 26°C
• Do not open the windows when the air conditioning is on
• Clean filters and maintain your equipment regularly to optimise its performance and extend its life

• Stopping, when possible, the ventilation in the unoccupied parts of your buildings can reduce your energy consumption by up to 50%, otherwise regulate its flow according to your needs
• Clean and maintain your ventilation filters to guarantee the air quality in your premises

• Regularly dust bulbs/lighting to maintain their performance and increase their lifespan
• Switch off the interior lighting of the buildings as soon as they are unoccupied and reduce the exterior lighting
• Review the possibility of reducing the light intensity of your area and make the most of daylight

• Reduce the use of hot water unless essential
• Produce hot water outside peak consumption periods in the morning and at the end of the day (depending on your tariff)
• Limiting the temperature of hot water to 55° prevents the formation of scale while eliminating any risk of bacterial development
• Regularly check the piping in your premises to identify and repair potential leaks
• Regularly remove the limescale deposit in your boiler to avoid over-consumption 

• Completely turn off your devices after use by avoiding standby mode. For example, a computer in sleep mode uses 20%-40% of its power consumption
• Implement a digital sobriety approach, for example by limiting the sending of large attachments in your e-mails
• Replace the oldest equipment with equipment with better energy performance
