Heating
NOS INSTALLATIONS
Energy facilities designed to limit our impact
Geothermal wells and heat pumps
Heat pumps, and in particular geothermal wells, are very eco-friendly renewable energy sources that harness the heat from the air or the ground.
We have 4 geothermal wells with a depth of 60 to 80 m to supply the reception hall and the farmhouse, as well as heat pumps in the other cottages.
Solar thermal panels convert solar energy into heat, which is used for heating water and spaces.
We have 12m² of solar thermal panels
Pellet stoves use wood pellets, a renewable energy source, to produce heat.
Pellet stoves and wood-burning stoves are more energy-efficient than traditional fireplaces and generate fewer particulate emissions. They also contribute to the recovery of wood waste, thus participating in a circular economy.
Good thermal insulation reduces heat loss in winter and keeps things cool in summer, thus reducing heating and air conditioning needs.
It ensures constant thermal comfort for occupants, while reducing energy costs.
Eco-friendly actions in everyday life
Simple steps to optimize heating
Heating represents a significant portion of an accommodation's energy consumption. At Parador Vert, a few simple steps can optimize its use, limit unnecessary consumption, and preserve everyone's comfort.
Regulating Room Temperature
- Action: Reduce the ambient temperature of rooms, especially when they are unoccupied.
- Impact: Each degree less can save approximately 7% of the energy used for heating. This reduces not only energy consumption but also CO2 emissions.
Optimal Temperature for Quality Sleep
- Tip: It is recommended to maintain the bedroom at a temperature of around 18°C to promote quality sleep.
- Benefits: This temperature is not only energy-efficient, but it is also considered ideal for restful sleep, thus contributing to the well-being of the occupants.
Do Not Heat Unused Rooms
- Action: Turn off the radiators or reduce the temperature in rooms that are not in use.
- Impact: This avoids wasting energy by unnecessarily heating empty spaces, thus reducing the environmental impact.
