Tom I’ve worked it out and if they’re charged at a rate of 14p per kWh and they have the underfloor heating on 8 hours a day it’s costing them £23 alone on the underfloor heating. If they’re open 7 days a week = £161.70 Each month = £646.80 Each year = £7761.60 Safe to say a wet system would be far cheaper
And IIRC they’ll pay VAT at the higher rate? And the Climate Change Levy thing on top too? Long time since I looked at commercial energy as it’s part of my service charge in the current building…
I used to do the accuracy tests on these. Energy supplier is obliged to test them for the customer. If it’s ok a charge is issued, if it’s at fault there is no charge. Also you can do a basic check my measuring the draw with CT Clamps to gauge the usage, then count the impulse lights on the meter. Each impulse will denote a certain amount of current. This will be written on each specific meter. The more it blinks the more it costs
I have service at a resturent, they are using around 450amps when everything is heating up on each phase at 240/400V, they do not use gas, the fryer alone is 125amp...
Had something similar once where client had solar installed and payed for it to be 3 phase, got called to look at consumption as it was very high but they had only put it on 1 phase…. But yet again many halogen lights etc
Usage audit jobs can suck! Like you say, you can't do much with the meter. So you just run the electric in the various modes of operation as you think the scenarios would dictate. You did a great job on that one.
Used to run a m&e firm specialising in the catering sector. How there are so few restaurants that blow up or burn down is a mystery to me. The standards are lower than a snakes belly at anywhere other than the big chains.
90amps in the underfloor is absolutely insane!! That’s like 3 electric showers running all day!! Pablo Escobar once burnt cash to say warm and that’s what those guys are doing lol 😂
Another Great video, it would be nice to see the underfloor heating with a thermal imaging camera. Would a fault with the heating like bad connections cause that massive draw?

Well, the first thing that people should do to reduce energy costs, is to try and reduce heat loss from properties during cold weather. So that means significantly improving the insulation. Fitting better double or triple glazing. That sort of thing. Then less energy is needed to keep the place at a reasonable temperature.
@@Mark1024MAK I’ve got a architectural glass roof in my kitchen. I had a choice of 3 types of glass, all double glazed. The first one was normal clear glass used on standard double glazing units. The second one was Argon gas filled in the cavity which gives a blue tint. The third one was a coated glass with argon and reflective sheen which was the most efficient but the most expensive. I’m talking like £3000 more than the middle option of argon filled. I calculated the energy cost saving from heat loss between the 2nd and 3rd option vs the extra price to pay for gas to heat up the room. In 20 years, I’d spend only about £1200 extra on gas to heat the kitchen by choosing the 2nd option over the 3rd option. I’ve actually saved £1800 by choosing the middle option rather than max efficiency glass. Triple glazing is good, but only if you save money on gas over a short period. Otherwise it’s not worth the extra expense.
@@fitzyraz - I’m not criticising anyone. Most people will only spend what they think is a reasonable amount. Action is really required by governments to make it more affordable for better insulation/better double glazing to be a real option for people to choose.

And when people work out the cost of heating, we just don’t know which way the price of gas and electricity is going in the medium or long term. We, as a nation, are very reliant on gas for heating and cooking (including my home). Heating using electricity is expensive. So what happens if gas is phased out?

They will love LED lights. Used to go a church about 19 yrs ago that had electric under floor heating. It used about $400 AU a month, I've no idea what the current draw was, but it was a lot! Sell em LED lights and install them too!

Heating just needs tremendous amounts of power. Think about a standard electric heater for a single room at home. They usally are rated for 2000 W or more, thats more than 10A.
