A full service installation from Fläkt Woods Fläkt Woods has designed, supplied and installed six bespoke JM Aerofoil axial fans, complete with inverter drives, to the Western General Hospital in Edinburgh. The project involved replacing six fans which had been in use for more than 40 years, with highly efficient models. The original units were running constantly at an estimated 76% efficiency, whereas the new units are over 93% efficient. Coupled with the new inverters, the running costs have been significantly reduced, ensuring a payback period of less than two years. l Visit

Gordonstoun School gets a Grundfos pumps upgrade Founded in 1934, Gordonstoun School is one of the most famous independent public schools whose alumni include three generations of the royal family. Set in a 150-acre estate in Elgin, it provides co-education to 600 day and boarding pupils. Its enlightened approach to education has recently been extended to a review of its infrastructure. This included the boiler house, which had remained unchanged for more than 20 years. With a desire to improve energy efficiency and reduce its carbon footprint, Gordonstoun appointed biomass heat specialist HWEnergy to deliver the best solution. HWEnergy in turn collaborated with Grundfos Pumps to deliver the bespoke pump solution. Now fully operational, the new system combines a range of ultra-efficient members of the award-winning Grundfos MAGNA circulator pump family. Additionally, a ready-to-install packaged pump skid, comprising 2 x Grundfos TPE 80-400/2 energy efficient pumps, was delivered complete with suction/ discharge heads and an auto-changeover panel. With a strong reputation for excellence, the school sets the highest standards in every aspect of its operation. This includes the estate management staff, who are delighted with the overall results – including the Grundfos pump solution, which is already proving a worthwhile investment in terms of much lower running costs and significantly reduced CO2
emissions. l Email
