Three ways technology can take luxury to the next level

Anna Startin — Fri, 16 Feb 2024 13:20:23 +0000

By Rebecca Kelly, VenueScanner CEO At heart, what makes an experience feel like a luxury is indulgence, comfort, and ease – and there’s nothing like technology for making life easier. But it’s got a lot more potential than that. Tech can take a stately, striking or unusual space and make it into something really special, for guests and owners alike. Here’s how. Use tech to get ahead of the trends In the last few weeks, spurred by the likes of Saltburn and The Traitors, we’ve seen 117% more enquiries on VenueScanner for castle locations. Look at Google Trends to see how interest in certain moments has raised or declined over time. And you can turn that insight into targeted promotion through your digital marketing channels, like social media. Tech can help with that, too. AI tools offer an easy, cost-effective way to plan and create content. And once you’ve hooked their attention, you can use video and virtual 360 tours to give potential customers a sense of the space from afar. Make everyone’s stay seamless Tech-enabled online booking, check-in and check-out are pretty much the standard now, even if you’re also offering a personal touch to guide them through it. [...]

Maximising Energy Efficiency: Radiators & Heat Pumps

Jade — Fri, 27 Oct 2023 08:26:42 +0000

As heat pumps become more and more popular, Nick Duggan, MD at The Radiator Centre answers our questions on which radiators are best to use with these systems and how to maximise energy efficiency.Why might I need different radiators for a heat pump? Heat pumps work at lower temperatures than conventional boilers and as a consequence, they will heat a room to a lower temperature as well. Traditional radiators are designed for higher-temperature systems and therefore may not work as effectively with a heat pump, leading to reduced heating efficiency. To compensate for this, it’s likely that you will either need larger radiators than you currently have or more energy efficient ones. Radiators designed for heat pumps are optimised to operate efficiently with the lower temperature output of the heat pump. What are the most efficient radiators to use with a heat pump? Radiators with more surface area are best as they can transfer heat more effectively into the surrounding space, although this doesn’t always have to mean larger radiators. Energy efficient radiators are designed to maximise the amount heat generated and often includes features like fins, convectors, or other elements that increase the surface area available for heat exchange in more [...]
