“…Nevertheless, the collected data made it possible to describe a significant number of flats considered in the study. Data from administrators were compared with survey results (as described in detail in the report [2]). It was found that both, in relation to the number of residential premises and their usable area, data on the types of heat sources used in buildings were very similar.…”

“…As a result, in order to keep space heating costs at an acceptable level, they do not heat their flats to comfort conditions (67% of flats). It should also be noticed that in apartments heated with coal the problem of under-heating is also frequent (32% of flats) [2]. It usually results from insufficient household budget.…”

“…In Poland, one can find a huge stock of such buildings that are often in very bad condition, while the process of the pre-war urban areas revitalisation had not yet reached the satisfactory level. It needs to be emphasised that the revitalisation of those buildings is a difficult and complex process [2]. A modernisation of such objects should ensure that they meet the requirements of the Technical Regulations [1] when at the same time, in the field of thermal protection, such changes are limited by regulations regarding conservatory protection.…”

Environmental and social effects of the change of heat sources on the example of a selected quarter of tenement houses in Wroclaw

The energy consumption for space heating and domestic hot water preparation are significant burdens of a polish household budget, especially in old tenement houses. Simultaneously, lowering the emission of pollutants is under the great importance and one of main goals to achieve in big cities. This policy results in the need of elimination of systems based on solid fuels. The article analyses the environmental and social consequences of the exchange of heat sources in such buildings in one of the quarters in Wroclaw. It presents how this change will affect the levels of low emission and costs of energy supply to tenement buildings.

“…They are often characterized by rich architectural details, represent cultural heritage, and constitute a significant group of buildings in strict city centers. According to the report conducted in Wroclaw (Poland) in 2019 [43], 21% of residential premises of the studied population were located in multifamily buildings built before World War II. The pre-war buildings are characterized by poor thermal properties and thus high energy demand for heating in cold and transition periods.…”

Analysis of Internal Conditions and Energy Consumption during Winter in an Apartment Located in a Tenement Building in Poland

The residential sector of existing buildings has great potential in energy savings and the improvement of indoor conditions. The modernization of buildings is of particular concern to the policies of the European Union, local governments, and building users. The aim of this paper is to present an analysis of indoor parameters and energy consumption for heating for an apartment located in a pre-war tenement building before and after thermomodernization. The analysis was conducted for winter conditions and was based on measurements and simulations. Originally, the building had not undergone any thermomodernization actions since its reconstruction after WWII. Interior, exterior, and surface temperatures were recorded to describe the thermal conditions of the apartment, while gas meter readings were used to estimate energy consumption for heating purposes. WUFI Plus software (v.3.2.0.1) was used to estimate energy consumption and perform energy simulations for the apartment over an extended period of time. The best thermomodernization effect resulted from the replacement of windows and the inefficient heating system, avoiding surface condensation and reducing final energy consumption by more than 50%. The extended options resulted in energy savings higher than 70%. The presented analysis shows the importance of retrofit measures and proves that even a small improvement can bring significant benefits.
