Self-learning smart boiler – savings and return on investment explained
What is a self-learning smart boiler?
A self-learning smart boiler automatically adapts to a household's hot water usage. This means that heating only occurs when necessary, reducing energy consumption and costs without compromising on comfort.
H2: How does it work?
The system learns from:
Daily and weekly usage
Hot water volumes
Absence periods
Renewable energy availability
H3: Comfort without waste
Hot water when needed, no continuous heating.
H2: How much money can you save?
Typical savings for households include:
10–30% reduction in hot water energy use
€120–€350 annual savings for average households
Higher savings with solar panels or dynamic tariffs
H3: Example
A household spending €1,000 per year on hot water may save €200–€300 annually.
H2: Less common applications with added savings
H3: Solar energy storage
Excess solar electricity is stored as hot water instead of being fed back at low rates.
H3: Dynamic electricity pricing
Heating water when electricity prices are lowest increases savings significantly.
H3: Holiday homes
No standby heating during vacancy reduces unnecessary costs.
H2: A smart investment with long-term returns
A self-learning smart boiler often pays for itself within a few years.
