Learn about the new update of the Regulation of Thermal Installations in Buildings (RITE) and how to adapt your building with AirGuardian.

The Government approved this year 2021 the update of the Regulation of Thermal Installations in Buildings (RITE) through the modification of Royal Decree 1027/2007, of July 20, which created it.

This new update of the RITE sets the energy efficiency and safety requirements that must be met by thermal installations in buildings, and will contribute to achieving the climate objectives established in theNational Integrated Energy and Climate Plan 2021-2030. Specific, improve energy efficiency by reducing primary energy consumption by 39.5% by 2030.

In fact, the regulations that come to us from the European Union pursue a radical transformation of the real estate parks (not just homes) before 2050, towards buildings with almost zero energy consumption.

¿How to reduce the energy consumption of buildings and adapt to the new update of the RITE 

It may sound crazy, but it's not. Since this same objective, mentioned above, is also pursued by the standard Passivhaus or Passive House , achieve the minimum energy demand possible while ensuring a high quality of indoor environment. We recommend you take a look at the website of thePassivhaus Building Platform.

With this that we share with you, we are saying that it is not necessary to make a large investment to adapt to this new update of the RITE. Since these passive building models are not based on expensive installations to improve indoor air quality, but rather on the construction of spaces that promote cross ventilation or use more durable insulating materials. Although, to adapt to this model we need a long period of rehabilitation of the building or perhaps new constructions.

However, with AirGuardian devices we can have our building adapted to the new RITE update in a matter of seconds. These devices, in addition to measuring air quality, temperature and humidity, also help us evaluate the ventilation strategy for our rooms.

The range of AirGuardian products keep the quality of the air in your closed spaces under control and help to ventilate correctly only when the device changes colour. addition withAirGuardian smart plugs You can also control the energy consumption of your electronic devices.
