Underfloor heating and "smart meter" Bashny.Net

Let's start with "smart" or simply double-rate meter. In a normal working day, people are more likely to use power when going to work and then come home in the evening. This time — from 7:00 to 10:00 and from 19:00 to 22:00. To relieve the network and increase the reliability of power supply was introduced two-tariff counters. That is, if you have a single-rate meter, the energy consumption is also available at the same fare.

If you are considering saving money on lighting and use of appliances — we can install two-tariff metering device. Then the power consumption will be the rate divided by 2 subsistence zone from 7: 00 to 23:00 and 23:00 to 7:00. Cost day rate is more expensive night, but as everywhere, here too there are nuances.





They concluded that there is no universal schemes of savings, the simple ways to live life to the fullest and pay less for utilities.

So who fits two-tariff meter? First of all, it is suitable for large families, where it is reasonable to use the washing machine and dishwasher at night, after the end of the workday. Also, if the mistress of the house prefers to get up before 7 am and cook food for the family — this saving method will also work. And accordingly, if you live alone or only two of you, and you are not home all day, and you work in the office — it is unlikely you have accumulated a large amount of clothing to wash a lot of dishes for the day. Still you probably agree to get up at 5 am to start baking cakes. In this case, the installation of two-tariff counter — not your method of saving. With the counter clear, proceed to use Underfloor heating.
