Heat metering systems, also called heat cost allocators, are typically used in multi-resident buildings to optimally allocate heat cost based on usage. They estimate heat consumption by measuring the temperature difference between the room and the radiator with data wirelessly transferred to a central unit. Heat cost allocators are battery powered devices and thus low power design is essential to extend battery lifetime expectancy. Read more
