Hotel Solutions - The ‘Basic’ core systems

13/06/2009 by David Slade.

Hotel solutions come in all levels of systems and user complexities.

For a quick overview of a traditional typical basic hotel system, here is a quick description of the typical systems:

First system included to increasing the overall energy efficiency of a hotel complex, a Building Management System (BMS) shall be installed to provides a central point of control for  the heating, security, booking, and financials, dramatically, reducing the operating costs and simplifying the management of a hotel system(s). This can be dramatically improved by combining these systems into an integrated system.

Central control made easy
For heating and ventilation control, a good system systems will use zone controllers as opposed to room thermostats, which are a far more economical solution to temperature control, leaving your guests warm and cosy with consistent temperatures around the whole building. Because reception areas, restaurants, conference rooms, offices, pools, spas and fitness centres all have different climate and security needs, a BMS solution is a simple way to control all these areas centrally.

Behind all of this, sits a comprehensive range of advanced electrical distribution equipment.

Resulting in a ….

Reliable, maintenance free and efficient energy management system.

This overview is deliberately simple to convey how a hotel complex can be made into an efficient business machine that delights its guests. The offer includes everything from single products to scalable integrated solutions.
