Advantages of system modernization with KappaFit
KappaFit is the programme for modernizing existing ventilation and energy systems. It includes service packages that enable existing systems to be comprehensively modernized so that they meet current requirements. In addition to function, the benefit aspects of efficiency, safety, comfort and value retention are also addressed and optimized.
What does KappaFit mean?
The word “fit” stands for “to adapt”. KappaFit thus describes the lifelong support and optimization of ventilation systems. They should be continuously maintained, kept in good working order and brought up to date again if necessary. Even if components are replaced, extended or modified, the basic features of the system are retained.
Advantages of KappaFit system modernization
Before an older system is replaced, it is worth assessing a modernization. Aging systems can usually be upgraded so well that they often stand comparison with new systems.
A short list of advantages that speak in favour of a KappaFit system modernization:
1. Improved function and higher productivity
Targeted modernization measures improve the function of the existing system. KappaFit system modernization thus ensures greater system performance.
2. Increased energy efficiency
The energy consumption of existing systems can often be significantly increased with minor measures. In the course of KappaFit system modernization, energy efficiency is comprehensively assessed and measures to reduce operating costs are implemented.
3. Future-proof automation and digitalization
Modernization can often only be carried out in a future-proof manner through intelligent digitalization. Hardware and software are often no longer available or are no longer supported. This makes maintenance more difficult and unplanned downtimes cannot be mitigated. In the course of KappaFit system modernization, existing systems are optimized using intelligent and future-proof hardware and software modules.
4. Cost savings
The cost of modernization is compared with the cost of a new investment to determine the cost-effectiveness of the measures. As a rule, the costs of modernization are lower than those of a new acquisition.
5. Guaranteed availability
There is often a lack of spare and wear parts for older systems. KappaFit system modernization ensures that the necessary installation parts will also be available and easy to procure in the future.
6. More safety
With KappaFit system modernization, existing systems can be operated safely and comply with current standards and regulations.
7. Extended service life
KappaFit system modernization ensures functional, economical and safe operation of existing systems and extends the service life of existing systems.
8. Habits
Operators have been used to the way an existing system works for years. A new system often requires extensive training, whereas an existing system is well known. With the KappaFit system modernization, only what has been modernized needs to be practiced. The effort involved is minimal.
