The owners of the old three-storey building on Vyronos Street, in the center of Kalamata decided to proceed with its radical renovation, in order to commercialy exploit it. The ground floor will be used as a business office space (Architectural office) while the first and second floor as short term rental accommodation.
Based on reliability and economic operation, the engineers of ANDRIANOS chose the most modern systems for heating, cooling, production of hot water for domestic use, mechanical ventilation with heat recovery as well as central and remote control via Smart Home, in order to achieve the objective, the ultimate level of thermal comfort and high energy savings.

ARISTON Heat pumps
In order to fully cover the heating needs in winter and the cooling in summer, two Heat Pumps were selected, an Ariston Nimbus Pocket 40M Net for the Architectural Office at the Ground Floor and an Ariston Nimbus Pocket 50M Net for the two accommodation apartments on the 1st and 2nd floor.
Ariston Nimbus Pocket M Net is an air/water pump with inverter, monobloc type, which stand out for their very high performance levels even in cold climates, with 2kW+2kW integration elements for guaranteed comfort in every situation. In addition, it enables remote control and monitoring of energy consumption through the ARISTON NET application.
Heat pump units require only 25% of electricity for their operation and achieve the remaining 75% by pumping thermal energy from the air of the external environment.
They are significantly superior to conventional systems, after achieving energy savings and reduction of operating costs up to 80%. They can perfectly meet the needs for thermal comfort, offering a healthy environment with safety, reliability and quality. They are an ideal solution for building renovations as they are very easy to install and have low system maintenance costs.

ASSOLO Ventilation with heat recovery in all areas.
An intervention that should not be missing from any modern building, a ventilation system with heat recovery, was selected to fully cover the ventilation needs of the premises, without having to open the windows, thus completely reducing heat loss.
The ventilation system with heat recovery ASSOLO is an innovative & autonomous indoor ventilation system that creates the ideal air quality conditions, removes the polluted full of humidity indoor air and insert fresh air from outdoor, while also preheating this outdoor air, reducing humidity and eliminating ventilation losses by 93%.
Thus, with the installation of the ASSOLO system, the owners have ensured:
- Satisfied visitors and customers on their premises.
- Hygienic Atmosphere & Disposal of pollutants and germs from the space, with fresh air supply with closed windows.
- Additional savings in space heating costs by at least 30% and at the same time a significant contribution to environmental protection.

SALUS Smart Home for direct central and remote control
The SALUS Smart Home system is the only smart management system, which achieves real Energy Saving in the most costly consumptions of buildings, those of heating/cooling systems.
Thanks to the high specialization of SALUS in the optimization of the conditions that ensure Thermal Comfort, as well as the strong know-how of ANDRIANOS for the smooth and economical operation of the electromechanical systems, the renovated building has a number of modern functions and additional energy savings.
In detail, the following were installed:
- Smart Fan Coil Thermostats - Salus FC600, for heating & cooling control. One FC600 was installed in each room, for full autonomy in control & achieving absolute thermal comfort..
- Smart Roller Shutters - Salus RS600, for remote closing/opening of the shutters.
- Smart Relay SALUS Smart Home – Salus SR600, to control the two Heat Pumps, with control both in their opening / closing and in the automatic switching between heating / cooling function, for the control of the Solar Water Heater. Also, smart relays were installed to control the internal and external lighting.
- Smart Plug – Salus SPE 600, for remote control of lighting fixtures.
- Temperature sensors – Salus PS600 for monitoring the hot water temperature of the solar water heater, in order to immediately solve any problems with temperature.
- Motion sensors – Salus MS600 that send SMS and EMAIL notifications when traffic is detected at night and notify owners (a very useful feature).

ANDRIANOS Solar Water Heater for free Hot Water from the Sun with high efficiency
The Solar Water Heater of ANDRIANOS that was installed in the renovated building,has the No.1 in collector level performance in Greece, which makes it one of the most efficient systems for immediate supply of free hot water.
With this great product, which apart from the unsurpassed quality (10 years warranty), combines and excellent price-quality ratio, confirms the high know-how of ANDRIANOS in the solar thermal systems and is distinguished in a sector of the Greek market, with special requirements and high competition.
Thermal Comfort and Energy Saving by ANDRIANOS
ANDRIANOS with vast experience in home installations, has managed to implement projects like this, which in order to be completed, require the cooperation of specialised engineers and energy technicians, as well as high know-how for the correct installation and configuration of all the above electromechanical systems.
The systematic involvement of ANDRIANOS with cutting-edge technologies in heating, air conditioning and energy saving in combination with the unique Energy Saving Technicians Specialist Team (EOT-EXE) that has at its disposal, have made it the top choice for the commissioning of thermal comfort projects in the Peloponnese region.
In this project, the Heating, Cooling, Hot Water Production, Ventilation & Smart Home systems were designed from scratch: Top technology systems with high efficiency levels that offer low operating costs were selected, with great energy savings and complete control of the building achieved. Moreover everything is controled remotely via mobile phone or computer with many personalised functions.
Thus, the owners upgraded the commercial value of their building, with an immediate payback investment, while offering absolute thermal comfort to the residents and users of the building.
