IN FOCUS Kooltech taking the extra-step forward L


aunching the Kooltech Applied Demo Suite in Fareham. The suite features a fully operational commercial heat pump connected to all components up to the point of outlet, including bespoke designed K-con thermal store and potable hot water


vessels and all associated valves, stats and controls. The full system offered by Kooltech Applied simplifies and accelerates the


procurement and logistics of the heat pump solution, reducing potential pain points from design to order to installation and commissioning, and provides cost-certainty solution for every party. Everything seen in the suite can be obtained and supported by Kooltech Applied


directly (all except the copper pipes!). Industry professionals, M&Es, installers and end-user involved in decarbonisation heat pump projects are encouraged to visit. Scott Mason, Head of Kooltech Applied, says “I encourage anyone who is interested in decarbonisation


heat pump projects to visit. Contractors wanting to take their first steps into commercial heat pumps and potable hot water can become familiar with the full solution here at our Fareham branch. It’s ideal for pre- commissioning checks and general hands-on training as the system set-up allows them the opportunity to test, check, touch and ask questions before installing on-site.” “We also encourage end-users who are looking at decarbonisation projects it may help them to identify


potential sites easier. We will be providing a CPD guide and Q&A for the full experience, for those that want it.” Don’t just take Kooltech’s word for this. Matt West Associate Director at ARB and Paul Jenkyns Projects


Director at Closewood, visited the demo suite. Matt West comments “The demo suite is a great resource for learning about and testing heat pump solutions. I'm particularly impressed with the fact that it includes a fully operational commercial heat pump system. This will allow visitors to get a real sense of how the system works and new engineers to identify any potential issues before installation”. Kooltech hasn’t stopped there. Part of the packaged supplied is the new KCLICK. The latest component added


to the K-con catalogue of bespoke products. The stainless-steel KCLICK makes connecting the CAHV units to the water system, secure and hassle-free. For applications such as primary schools, where a full BMS is out of budget, the K-con R&D team have also


designed and assembled the KS1-BR41N, aka the K-Brain, currently as a prototype. Designed to offer a low-cost control solution when operating the heat pump and potable hot water. The KS1-BR41N is a self-contained box requiring only wiring between the CAHV heat pump unit, motorised valve and a remote temperature sensor located within the potable water cylinder. The K-con products, though optional, are engineered to achieve optimal efficiency of the CAHV heat pump unit All components required to complete the full CAHV installation to the point of outlet, follow Kooltech’s


comprehensive suite of materials, that include their schematic drawings, which adhere to the manufactures installation guidelines, and the complete bill of materials so you can be confident that the system will perform as reliably and efficiently as possible, while guaranteeing warranty beyond the heat pump unit, when encompassing the Kooltech supplied components.
