“independent expertise... ...energy saving solutions�
AI R TI GH T N ESS T EST IN G Air tightness testing is a means to quantify the extent to which buildings 'leak' air through their envelopes. Air leakage is a vehicle for energy wastage, resulting in increased loads placed on the space heating and/or cooling systems by the constant uncontrolled flow of air through the building fabric. Epsilon Consultants Limited possess the expertise to carry out the procedure and to recommend remedial measures that deal with unwanted infiltration thereby saving money on energy bills and improving the comfort of occupants.

EN ER GY B EN C H M A R KI N G & A U DI TI N G The energy rating for your building compared with benchmark values will be a starting point to gauge how well your building measures up in the energy performance league table. A poor rating will indicate that energy is being wasted. An audit report shall highlight the recommended energy saving measures and the potential for saving on energy bills and carbon emissions. All we need to get started are copies of the previous 12 months energy bills and the floor plan of the building.

Operational areas that were given special attention were improving the efficiency of the existing cogeneration installation, the commercial kitchen and the indoor heated swimming pool. Air conditioning, mechanical ventilation and artificial lighting loads offered the greatest potential for saving on Hotel energy bills and reducing carbon emissions.
“energy costs & carbon emissions go hand in hand ...let us help you save on both”
How much could you save with renewable energy?
Peak oil and insecurity of fossil fuel supplies are factors that exert ever upwards pressure on the price we pay for our energy. With energy costs representing an increasing proportion of property overheads the imperative for building owners and managers to reduce the demand for energy has never been greater. With a lifetime of experience in the design of building services systems Epsilon Consultants Limited are ideally placed to provide professional and independent advice on how best to reduce energy costs.
