Centralised, Remote Heating Control

Irus allows estates/facilities teams to manage every room’s heating, hot water cylinders and other integrated components from a single cloud-based dashboard, no need to visit every individual room, tank, or building.

• Save time on routine checks and temperature adjustments.
• Instantly update heating schedules across a whole site (or selected zones).
• No more full site surveys to adjust heating or troubleshoot thermostat issues.

Automated Fault Detection and Alerts

Irus constantly monitors room sensors and system performance. If a heater fails, a sensor stops reporting, leaks occur, or conditions deviate from normal (e.g. high humidity, temperature out of range), the system sends automatic alerts.

• Irus can integrate with maintenance ticketing systems through an API
• Enables rapid, targeted maintenance.
• Reduces downtime and prevents reactive firefighting.
• Helps prioritise genuine issues over guesswork.

Reduced Energy Waste = Lower Overheads

By heating only occupied rooms and optimising setpoints, Irus cuts energy usage by up to 50%. Which translates to:

• Lower energy bills.
• Fewer complaints about overheated or underheated rooms.
• Less demand on plant and infrastructure = reduced wear and tear.
• Target and prioritise responses to faults as opposed to completing full building surveys.

This streamlines both operational and financial planning. The addition of kitchen safety and leak detection devices provides the potential for insurance premiums reduction.

Actionable Estate-Wide Insights

Irus provides clear, visual reporting on:

• Heating usage by site, block, floor, flat, room, or circuit.
• Environmental conditions (humidity, temperature).
• Room occupancy patterns.
• Plant room monitoring.

Energy managers can make smarter decisions as a result of energy use breakdowns, such as planning energy efficiency upgrades based on real usage, not assumptions, and understanding what proportion of energy is used across different building services.

Minimises manual Intervention and resident’s complaints

The system is tamper-proof and consistent. Occupants can’t override settings in ways that lead to waste or discomfort.

• Reduces complaints.
• Lowers the burden on support teams.
• Allows staff to focus on value-adding tasks, not repetitive fixes.

Prefect Irus ControlSensor automates, centralises, and simplifies heating and environmental control, giving facilities teams more control, insight, and efficiency across the estate, while reducing both workload and operating costs.
