ELCO Heating Solutions has delivered three TRIGON XL 500 boilers to the Ponteland Schools and Leisure complex in Northumberland. The compact and powerful units now provide sustainable heating, as well as hot water, across a number of educational and sports facilities.
Given the number of amenities involved, the facility required a powerful, reliable and highly efficient system to cope with the varying heating demands.
To fulfil the requirements, three TRIGON XL500 units were specified and managed by M&E specialists, SES Engineering Services. The boilers achieve impressive low NOx emissions by utilising a commercially proven premix-burner system, which includes a fully modulating, water cooled cold flame burner. This is combined with an optimised combustion system and stainless steel heat exchanger to provide a reliable and robust lifetime performance – while also offering gross seasonal efficiencies up to 97.5%. Neil Clark, senior project engineer at SES Engineering Services, said: “We selected ELCO’s TRIGON XL units as they deliver ultra-low emissions
and a powerful performance all within a compact arrangement. Plus, the after sales team at ELCO offered a complementary first annual boiler service in addition to the standard warranty.”
A major benefit of the TRIGON XL is modular assembly, allowing a boiler to be dismantled and reassembled in half a working day. All models are designed to pass through standard 760mm wide doors, making commercial installations straightforward, while factory fitted cargo wheels allow the boiler to be easily manoeuvred into its final position. Further bolstering its credentials, a 30K flow/return temperature differential allows easier integration with district heating systems, while maintaining optimum efficiency. The TRIGON XL is available in seven different models, with outputs ranging from 150-570kW.

The Canadian Embassy in Romania has appointed property and construction consultancy Ingleton Wood to undertake a roof maintenance project as part of a series of planned work.
The practice’s London office is providing full building surveying services for the maintenance project at the Embassy of Canada to Romania in Bucharest. It also serves as the Embassy of Canada to Bulgaria and Moldova.
Ingleton Wood’s consultants along with contractors M&J Group (construction and roofing) have carried out a site visit to survey and specify the 1900ft2 roof terrace and offered a full flame-free Alumasc Waterproofing System.
The main purpose of the work is to enhance the water-tightness of the roof terrace as part of a planned programme of ongoing maintenance work across the building. Daniel Legg, partner at Ingleton Wood, who is co-managing the project, said: “We are very pleased and proud to have been appointed to provide our services at such a prestigious site.
“This will be a fantastic opportunity to enhance our reputation further afield, showcase our services and expertise, and allow our teams to gain excellent experience working abroad.
“We recognise the importance of the building and are committed to carrying out the roof maintenance works with care and quality. We look forward to working with the Canadian Embassy and M&J Group to deliver this project on time and to budget.” Jack Henrickson, chief executive at M&J, said: “We are thrilled to be welcomed back to the Embassy to deliver our second phase of works following completing a previous phase with Ingleton Wood a few years ago.” Work is expected to start in early 2022 and complete later next year.

Providing a pioneering working environment for a Regius professor and his team has been assured at University of Liverpool through stateoftheart ventilation.
The University’s chemistry department has been awarded a Regius Chair which recognises the University’s high quality teaching and research. In honour of the award, the University has invested £3.5m in the refurbishment of an existing laboratory.
Central to the new facility is the ventilation. M&E consultant Steven A Hunt worked closely with A & B Engineering and Gilberts Blackpool to ensure efficient removal of internal air and supply of fresh air, balancing the air requirements of staff with effective extract of fumes arising from the research work.
A VAV (variable air volume) system was chosen with new air handling units delivering filtered and conditioned air into the laboratory with centralised extract at roof level, all controlled by a BMS.
Gilberts’ Series PGL laminar flow panels-each 1200 x 600- were selected to strategically deliver the local fresh air into the workspace. The Gilberts diffusers had to deliver adequate air for the lab staff without interfering with airflow around the 22no fume cupboards, of which three were interconnected creating a single unit 6m long. Gilberts Series PGL is designed for use in operating theatres, laboratories, clean rooms. The panels provide high capacity supply ventilation with a low free ventilation area (15%). The Laminar Flow Panel provides, via top entry inlets, an equalised turbulence free input of air into the treated zone creating a vertical air projection with little in the way of backdrafts or inter-mixing. Thus, a clean un- contaminated air zone can be created to surround critical areas such as operating tables and work tops.

fire detection system has been installed into the Bloomfield Shopping Centre in Bangor by Nittan Elite Partner Solutions for Systems, based in Northern Ireland.
William McBride of Solutions for Systems said: “Nittan was specified because the client required that the system selected be compliant, cost effective, user friendly and have functionality to permit integration with existing or future building management systems”. The new fire detection systems feature eight Nittan Evolution 1 fire alarm control panels installed in a network at strategic locations throughout the site, enabling site personnel to quickly and effectively access and assess any alerts on the fire alarm system without needing to return to the control room or to have dedicated staff located at a single panel in a control room. Evolution 1 are user-friendly touch screen panels that are both reliable and cost effective. Fully compliant with BS EN54 part 2 and 4, the Evolution 1 panels have separate dedicated menus for the user and installer. They have the capability of running up to 254 devices on the loop, while the flexible architecture means everything from a single standalone panel, to a 16 panel

network can be achieved without any additional hardware. Evolution 1 panels are compatible with Nittan’s Evolution range, which uses microprocessor technology in the sensors and sophisticated detection algorithms, combining reliable fire detection together with a very high degree of protection against unwanted false alarms.
At the shopping centre, Evolution EV-DPH-A2R Dual Optical Heat Detectors were selected, which feature Nittan’s Dual Optical Technology to reduce false alarms, which retail environments are often prone to. Furthermore, the detectors also incorporate an A2R class heat detector. As such, the units are capable of monitoring two very different by- products of a fire – smoke and heat.
The Evolution EV-DPH-A2R Detectors sit on Nittan EV-AV2- Sounder Beacon Bases which provide both sound and visual indication of alarm.
