Reigate Smarthome

After a long planning period and ground works delayed by heavy rainfall, Surrey Smarthome can at last make a start on an exciting new Smarthome in Reigate.

The 1st phase of this project is the groundfloor rear extension encompassing a huge Kitchen Diner, Games room, Utility and Plant room.

With 2 large Ground Source Heat Pumps, an EV Charge point, 3 ovens, 6 bedrooms and the possibility of a pool at a future stage, the calculated max load was 180A putting it well above the 100A limit for a single phase supply.

The quote from the DNO to upgrade the property to a 3 phase supply was an eye-watering £36,000. So instead of this we are going to use Loxone’s new Energy Meter and Energy Management software to keep the house below the 100A cutout fuse limit. This, coupled with a 5KW Solar Panel array will also help the client to keep on top of his energy usage and save money.
