Sustainably efficient: tackle the renovation backlog for night storage heaters with the smart Intelligent Quantum (IQ) storage heating system – bring on the energy revolution! Kulmbach, March 2015. Around 1.6 million homes in Germany are heated with old-style night storage heaters, which aren’t operating efficiently anymore and should be replaced. Now take the opportunity to modernise your heating: with Intelligent Quantum (IQ) – the smartest and most modern electric storage heaters in the world. Smart energy management offers further efficiency gains: simply install the Dimplex Smart Eco System (S.E.S). Who really needs electric storage heaters? Many owners of weekend houses and garden sheds would like to heat their second home cheaply and efficiently. Installation of a full-specification heating system often cannot be justified for smaller accommodation that may be used only infrequently. The same holds true for low-energy houses, which require only minimal heating. And then there are also the 1.6 million housing units in Germany which still have night storage heaters installed and where the installation of water-circulation central heating would be prohibitively expensive and disruptive. The housing industry thus faces the challenge of providing a future-proof refurbishment solution at a reasonable cost. In all these cases, a modern form of storage heating can be an interesting and cost-effective alternative in the longer term, also allowing users to benefit immediately from the energy revolution. The innovative Intelligent Quantum (IQ) electric storage heating system from Dimplex offers the best performance and surprisingly low investment costs. Installation is moreover child's play and offers longterm savings compared to gas or oil-fired central heating. "It's also good for the environment" says Jochen Engelke, Managing Director of Glen Dimplex Deutschland. "Using green electricity reduces CO2 emissions to zero, and the addition of a sophisticated control system can convert fluctuating inputs of energy into sustained heating. Which all goes to show: It's time to get rid of old prejudices against electric heating systems" Well-designed system solutions for the energy revolution Modern models such as the IQ from Dimplex have nothing in common with the old unloved night storage heaters. The new generation of this technology stores heat up to five times more effectively than the old current-guzzlers; and since the 1980s, Glen Dimplex Deutschland has rigorously avoided any use of potentially-injurious asbestos. Intelligent Quantum uses nothing but environmentally-compatible materials such as sheets of mica and iron oxide.
