SEDS: the cold water heating system
Equally important: using renewable energy efficiently and making it affordable.
Slim to CO₂-neutral
To achieve our CO₂-neutral ambition,
renewable energy is crucial
Equally important: using renewable energy efficiently and making it affordable.
That is why SEDS is connected to the grid
With a smart system of peak shaving and net leveling, we create an energy buffer controlled by real-time information. Energy is stored during off-peak moments and then used again during peak moments. In this way, the energy consumption is perfectly tailored to the energy needs.
Lowest TCO (Total Cost of Ownership)
With SEDS we want to make CO₂-neutral living possible for everyone
In order to achieve that goal, the system must also be affordable. Or evenbetter: cheaper than classic heating systems.
Combined with a PV installation, SEDS even comes out as the cheapest
Fail safe
The SEDS unit works right from its installation during the structural phase
After that, the operational costs are minimal. It is monitored completely remotely.
Should a malfunction occur, the smart system diagnoses itself and sends a technician on its way
This makes SEDS a fail-safe system. No sudden defects, none without worries.
Location temperatures
Common collective heating installations combine hot water and heating
In the boiler rooms, water is continuously heated to 60 to 70 degrees Celsius. These constant high temperatures are accompanied by large distribution losses and relatively low living comfort.
Smart system
SEDS splits up heating and hot water
This allows us to lower the water temperature a lot. A temperature of 40 degrees is enough to catch the coldest wintersplends. And during the summer, 17 degrees Celsius is even enough. This low temperature provides an additional advantage: passive cooling of the building.
To get hot water from the tap, a higher temperature is of course needed
SEDS provides this by providing each residential unit with its own booster heat pump. This way, we are only heating the water that is really being used. A serious improvement compared to the constant high temperatures in traditional systems.

Legionella-proof
SEDS is a patented, healthy and legionella-proof system
Its innovative construction gives legionella no chance
SEDS works with low water temperatures. This is energy-efficient, but it does present another challenge: the Legionella bacteria. This bacteria thrives in water between 20 and 50 degrees Celsius. Collective boiler systems are therefore extremely susceptible to it. SEDS is not.
A system for this and all future generations
SEDS units are made of recycled material. They are easy to repair and equal the life span of the building itself. Now that’ s sustainable building.
