The intervention took place at a house located in Corbiolo, in the mountainous area of the province of Verona. This building, built in the 1980s, was equipped with a radiator heating system with a pellet boiler. The owner wanted to improve energy efficiency and reduce fuel costs.
Project Description.
Proposed solution: We installed a geothermal heat pump with vertical geothermal probes. Four probes of 70 meters each were drilled in the garden. In addition, solar thermal panels and a 6 kW photovoltaic system with a 15 kW storage battery were installed on the roof.
Benefits
Improvement in energy class: The dwelling was upgraded from energy class B to class A4.
Reduction in emissions: Significant decrease in CO2 emissions through the use of renewable sources.
Energy savings: Significant savings on energy expenses for the owner.
Living comfort: Uniform heating of the whole house, improving indoor comfort.
Continuous efficiency: The solution keeps the building warm throughout the day, improving living comfort.
Technical Details.
Geothermal heat pump: Installation of four 70-meter vertical geothermal probes in the garden.
Solar thermal and photovoltaic panels: Rooftop installation of a 6 kW system with 15 kW storage battery.
Energy efficiency: Insulation work on the top floor of the house to further improve energy efficiency.
Results
Pre-intervention energy class: B
Post-intervention energy class: A4
Conclusions
The intervention at the Corbiolo home led to significant improvements in economy and living comfort. The combination of advanced technologies optimized energy efficiency, reducing CO2 emissions and ensuring even and continuous heating throughout the day. The owner benefited from significant energy savings and improved indoor comfort as a result of the energy efficiency measures.
