Up to 20% energy savings can be achieved using the new Voltage Optimisation (VO) unit from Apex Energy UK.
The easy-to-install Apex VO unit, designed and manufactured in the UK, has been introduced to help reduce energy consumption levels as well as the costs and carbon emissions associated with residential property stock.
Maintenance free, quick to install and cost effective, the VO unit minimises electricity waste, reduces a household’s carbon footprint and can protect and extend the lifespan of domestic appliances from over voltages.
The incoming voltage for all UK properties varies between 216V and 253V and all domestic electrical equipment with the CE mark is designed to work within this range but critically the optimum and most efficient supply voltage for these appliances is 220V.
When the voltage to an appliance exceeds 220V, excess heat and vibration can significantly increase running costs and will reduce the operational lifespan of electrical appliances.
The Apex VO unit is simply installed between the main meter and the distribution board. This ensures that the voltage supplied to all the electrical appliances is optimised, immediately reducing costs and providing energy savings.
