Heatstar Make Remote Monitoring And Control A Breeze With New Energy Management System
Heatstar have introduced a remote operational and energy monitoring control for their pool environmental control systems – the new Lynx Energy Management System. It is an accepted fact that Heatstar’s swimming pool environmental control systems are flag-bearers for energy efficiency and continue to be one of the preferred choices for pool installers and designers whenever quality and reliability are key requirements. Energy efficiency is a major focus for the pool industry and Heatstar continues to be at the forefront of developments in this field with the launch of their new Lynx
Energy Management System. The star at the centre of this new technology is a state-of- the-art touch-screen interface, enabling users to access and interact directly with their Heatstar system, all from a clear single-screen display. Based on a pioneering
Intuitive interface, the full colour touch-screen display gives users fingertip control of all control and monitoring functions. It also has the ability for users to alter temperature and humidity levels, and adjust set points to suit both application and other requirements. The Lynx Energy Management System, has the ability to deliver
over the internet from the other side of the world or the other side of the building. In addition, the Heatstar service team can remotely monitor a client’s system to make sure it is operating at its highest efficiency. This also enables the Heatstar team to respond quickly to any alarm and to diagnose any faults remotely limiting down time and energy waste. The new Lynx Energy
user specific web pages to a PC or mobile device running internet browser software. This enables the user to access and monitor their Heatstar system
Management System comes with full training and support from Heatstar’s technical team.

Sundolitt XPS Helps Provide A Warm Road To Recovery
Sundolitt XPS, extreme strength, extruded polystyrene is helping provide high insulation levels, strength and rigidity to a new swimming pool which will play an important role in the rehabilitation of injured and sick police officers from Northern England, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
The pool installation, at Castlebrae Police
Treatment Centre in Auchterarder, Perthshire, is part of a £2.5m redevelopment to improve and extend facilities to accommodate the needs of some 1,650 serving and retired police officers who use the centre each year. The work includes the new, much larger pool alongside a new hydrotherapy pool and a larger fitness and exercise hall with a purpose-built spin bike studio. The XPS has been supplied in varying dimensions to accommodate the sloping design of the pool and is an important sub- structure prior to the pouring of the concrete base and tile finish. The pool contractor, John Preston Pool & Spa Services, says that the Sundolitt XPS allows speed and simplicity of installation with minimal on site preparation as well as guaranteeing high insulation performance which will help keep energy costs down at the centre – a crucial factor as 85% of running costs have to come from police donations.

Sundolitt XPS has already proved ideal in industrial floors such as cold stores and chilled warehouses where high insulation, high strength attributes are critical but, in this application, it is helping keep water temperature up and the running costs down as well as providing rigid support and protection against differential heave for the pool. Sundolitt XPS is manufactured in a wide range of thicknesses and sheet sizes – the
primary range has a thermal conductivity of 0.033 – 0.037 W/mK (EN 13164). According to the type of use, it achieves outstanding compression resistance from 200 – 700 kPa (EN 826) and offers exceptionally low moisture absorption through its closed-pore system. “Our XPS is unaffected by rain, snow or frost and can be stored outside. We also make it available in square or shiplap edge – the latter having the advantage of preventing thermal bridging should the XPS boards part slightly during installation,” said Bryan Mawer Sundolitt’s Sales Manager for Construction Products and their specialist in XPS. Sundolitt XPS can also make a major contribution to the UK’s carbon reduction programmes. It is made without using environmentally harmful gases and is fully recyclable if recovered at end-of-life. And with the built-environment accounting for 40% of Europe’s energy consumption, the greater energy efficiency that comes from using Sundolitt XPS can, in some cases, reduce total energy consumption in buildings and structures by 75%.
