Efficient operation of the town hall – heating costs fall, comfort remains unchanged

Sensise brings structure to heating operations, reduces energy costs, and maintains consistent user satisfaction – all while remaining fully suitable for everyday use. On-site interventions remain an integral part of the concept.

Initial situation: Business caught between cost pressure and comfort demands

In the town hall, fluctuating occupancy, varying room layouts, and fixed operating hours collide with high comfort demands. Without a clear logic, heating phases quickly become too long, temperature reductions take effect too late or too drastically, and adjustments are made reactively. This leads to avoidable costs – and simultaneously to discussions as soon as a noticeable drop in comfort occurs.

Perfect starting point for Sensise

Town halls provide clear parameters: recurring usage times, typical zones with varying requirements, and operations that must be transparent, rule-based, and controllable. Sensise leverages precisely this structure to quickly unlock optimization potential – without interfering with building operations, which could compromise acceptance. Crucially, on-site control is maintained, allowing the team to react flexibly in day-to-day operations.

Implementation: Database, clear heating logic, intervention options

The project centrally consolidates relevant building and operational data and makes it transparent in a single interface. Based on this, a practical heating logic is developed with clear rules for heating times, setbacks, and operating states. The system brings order to the rules: when is which area heated, how does the building react to typical usage patterns, and how can adjustments be made in everyday use if situations deviate from the norm?

Anomalies and deviations are quickly visible. This simplifies operational control: The company recognizes where problems arise, can react in a targeted manner, and document decisions transparently – without constantly operating in "gut feeling mode".

Result: Efficiency and user comfort in one concept

The result is a transparent and controllable heating concept for the town hall that reduces energy costs while maintaining consistent comfort. At the same time, ease of use in everyday operations is preserved: manual intervention is provided for, ensuring that the on-site team retains control in daily operations. In the town hall of the municipality of Mittenaar, heating operations are caught between the demands of energy costs and comfort. The project addresses precisely this challenge: Sensise manages the building with a heating concept designed to optimize energy costs without negatively impacting the well-being of its users. Simultaneously, ease of use in everyday operations is maintained – manual intervention remains possible and is incorporated into the concept.

Relevant building and operational data are centrally collected and made transparent in a single interface. This forms the basis for a practical heating logic with clear rules for heating times, setbacks, and operating states. Deviations and anomalies are quickly visible, allowing the operator to react in a targeted manner – technically sound yet closely aligned with user needs.

The result: A comprehensible, controllable heating concept for the town hall that combines efficiency and user comfort and allows the local team to retain control in day-to-day operations.
