Daniel Gardi, owner of Hotz Partner, explains how the Waldegg sports facility in Horgen is making significant energy savings thanks to Joulia technology. Daniel Vega, head of architecture at Hotz Partner, is also convinced by the concept: For him, Joulia scores points for its efficiency and unobtrusive design. His enthusiasm is such that he has even installed Joulia's heat recovery system in his own home.
The architectural principle of sufficiency is consistently applied in the Waldegg cloakroom building, right down to the wet rooms. In order to minimize the energy required for hot water preparation despite high usage peaks, highly efficient Joulia shower channels of models 10P and 3P were installed. These recover heat directly from the draining shower water to preheat the cold water flowing in. This decentralized heat recovery massively reduces the energy consumption per shower, which perfectly complements the efficiency of the central 5000-liter storage tank. In this way, the building remains true to its guiding principle: maximum effect with minimum use of resources.

Its use in 39 bathrooms enabled a 10% reduction in building services, saving up to CHF 20,000 in construction costs. In operation, Joulia reduces ancillary costs by CHF 8,400 annually and is a decisive factor in achieving 85% self-sufficiency in winter.
