How to regulate your hall heating during the Christmas break - and how to cleverly counter rising energy prices
December 21, 2023
Christmas is once again approaching surprisingly quickly - and, unfortunately, one or two challenges are on the horizon. From the next increase in energy prices to the implementation of the GEG amendment. Congratulations if you have already converted your hall heating to an economical system from KÜBLER. This is a really good decision in many respects.
As far as gas and oil prices are concerned, they have eased in recent months. And the price of electricity has also eased compared to the previous year. The discontinuation of the federal subsidy and the increase in the CO2-tax from €30 to €45 per tonne, however, prices are expected to rise sharply in some cases in 2024.
This makes saving energy all the more important. Here are three important expert tips for you:
- Take a close look at the operating times of the hall heating systems and check whether the shift times are still synchronized with the heating times. Every hour of heating that you can save during normal operation is really worthwhile given the high prices.
- Clarify vacation operation during the festive period in good time and use the "Holiday operation" setting on your control unit. You can regulate the heating system down to 8 °C during the Christmas break, provided your general conditions allow this. This temperature is sufficient to ensure that the building does not cool down completely and that the operating temperature can be reached again quickly if required. You can already make the settings for Christmas and the other holidays now.
- Switch back to normal operation at the weekend before starting work. The system will run at the setback temperature according to your settings and resume normal operation on Monday.
Depending on the size of your system, reducing the temperature will save you several thousand euros. A sum that you can certainly budget for in the coming financial year. Perhaps even to celebrate with your employees and raise a glass to the New Year?

Anyone who operates one of the approximately 360,000 hall buildings that have been built in Germany since the 1960s has certainly already got cold feet this winter. It is quite likely that the heating systems in these halls are over 20 years old and are likely to cause regular malfunctions or even production stoppages. Not to mention the high heating costs or the trouble with employees and the works council. -
Outdated hall heating systems lead to horrendous heating costs and pollute the environment. Despite this, many operators shy away from investing in modernization. One possible solution: rented hall heating systems - heat-as-a-service!

New gas heating quickly in 2023 - often the cheapest decision that also pays off for the environmentThe BMWK is currently causing a stir with a draft bill. This is because it involves a categorical ban on gas heating systems. According to the plan, from 2024, only heating systems powered by 65 % renewable energies may be used. Formally, this can only be heat pumps, district heating or biomass heating. This raises the question: what about the openness of technology in Germany? And who should pay for it? Decentralized gas-powered heating systems are often the only economically and functionally viable solutions, especially in hall buildings. -
When production is running in the run-up to Christmas, nobody has time for heating control. The main thing is that it is nice and warm in the hall. Once set, the heating runs for the specified operating times.
