Energy saving estimation

[moreyeah]

Hi, i'm searching on how to estimate how much energy saved by increasing room temperature setpoint. For example by increasing from 23°C to 25°C with RH% maintained... and what if only one room setpoint is increased and other rooms' are maintained?

;) Please guide me to related thread if this this topic has already been posted... thanks

I would think outside temps would have a dramatic effect on the test ;)


And of course how tight the home is and with what type of insulation protects it.

Unfortunately the variables involved in this scenario are too great. To get an answer that resembled something useful the conditioned spaces that are in question would all need to have the same building fabric, insulating properties, ventilation rates and internal heat loads to come close being able to compare for energy saving potential. The calculation involved in trying to relate temperature change to energy saving would be at best misguided due to similar components having different heat load properties from one room to the next.
