How To Remain Invisible To Friends On Facebook

"scam TECC" Goodbye Energia

Not that I'm very comfortable with the title, but would not surprise me More than one came on a day to correct information on the deceased Energia forum through a search of that pair of words. Since I have already put, and I will not remove them until I Obigo, is unacceptable to clarify the meaning.

start with the background.


The colorful heat

The first highly publicized system Radiator / convector heaters with thermostat programmer more inclusive, to my knowledge, was blue heat. From here have come from under stones and more radiator / convector heaters with a couple of common characteristics:
  1. The price is far greater than an electric heater oil same kW.
  2. not consume less than the oil cooler as above.
"are strongly discouraged this type of radiators / convectors? Well not really, as long as we go to models priced tight enough because it does have its advantages (compared to electric oil):
  1. can usually be hung on the wall, which does not roam in medium. Having
  2. programmer and thermostat do not have to put them (60 € more shooting eye to expensive) oil cooler, which results in a more compact configuration.
  3. Furthermore, if any, are reported with a power regulator (perhaps through an exchange that facilitates the programming), we can employ to ensure that less power will be disconnected in case anyone from the refrigerator or turn on the kitchen , and therefore will not jump the limiter. Otherwise, we will need more power contracted or give up more times to the governor.

How do you justify a price totally unbalanced with respect to benefits provided?:
  1. Some brands, with advertising clearly misleading terms such as Low Power .
  2. Most other advertising clearly ambiguous, usually poking through the middle word Savings.
Well, I will discuss these last two points:
  1. All direct electrical heating systems (including all of bunting), ie, which use electricity to generate heat (Joule ) will consume 1 kWh of electricity for every 1 kWh of heat delivered. Simply convert any type of energy to heat is as simple and easy it is, indeed, when the conversion is of a type (not heat) to another (not hot), we will always lose some in the residual heat is say, we will not ever efficiency of 100%, and internal combustion engines have an efficiency around 20% (going from memory) the gas and around 40% that of diesel, the power plants burning coal by less than 35% (may get a more modern design) and the burning of natural gas (combined cycle) below 60%. The only marketed electric heating does not follow this rule is that based on Carnot cycle, ie, heat pumps, as not generate heat, but it pumped from a colder source (outside air, land or groundwater) to a focus hotter (indoor air, water underfloor heating), whereupon efficiencies typical 4 kWh of heat for every 1 kWh of electricity consumed in nominal conditions are far fetched, but today more than normal. A heat pumps, again.
  2. Certainly if we have an oil cooler without programmer or thermostat, it will be easier than what we have on more than necessary, consuming more electricity (and heating) than the corresponding radiator / heater, programmable thermostat, yes , if you buy an external thermostat and an external programmer (there will certainly be the two in one) and plugged the oil cooler on both, because then also get exactly the same savings. A shame, but there were those who took the time to do exactly that experiment comparing the two systems at home, and published exactly the same result as I comment in the forum late Energia.

TECC


Well, this is not just another company more dedicated to the manufacture and sale of radiators / convectors.

What is special about it compared to others? Well it seems that, in addition to prices of chills, a sea of \u200b\u200baggressive trade with promises you warm this apartment of 90 m2 with 70 € a month (not the city seem to matter), without the slightest basis to the endorsement, followed by " if you sign now we do 45% discount (will eye) we do to the promoters " . And therein lies the difference, because what is a signature loan with a financial institution and the people, the last time I read about it in the late Energia forum was having real problems with transactions void. Well, if you have a more direct evidence, take a look at the blog of Patricia and Calatayud forum. Today, 8/X/2008, I add two links: radiadorestecc.blogspot.com Emagister and

Is this scam? Well, apparently, some people do not have it clear.

Well, it's been at least a couple of months since the page http://www.energuia.com ceased to be active, including the most important from the point of view the amount of useful information, their forum. Yes, if picáis on the link now, and even goes as far as me, I will be playing to see the first image. If, however, you arrive on time, search google by Energia and see also a very clarifying information about ... Call me a bad idea, and special ro wrong, but page unavailable did not appear until they ceased to be available in the google search (I have not tested other browsers) none of the pages of the forum " Energia ", not even the option Cached easy to check by simply searching for the next two words" scam TECC (formerly was the primeritas). Well, while again not be accessible if it is one day, I hope to entering information in this blog , including at least the most important points that were only accessible in that wonderful (Or by the tool or for the lack of censorship) forum. This blog

is dedicated to skeptical , liming , Alfaquino , Deivis and Pepe (some, I will have failed the memory, and I will have misspelled, the one that I to warn about this blog going to be a liming).
