Mitsubishi Electric releases new CPD guide on Multi­Residential Buildings, with supporting webinar


provide clear information on some of the UK’s most pressing building challenges. Multi­residential buildings are usually medium and high­rise apartments, leased to private tenants, and they are a growing part of the UK property sector. As with all dwellings, these buildings must comply with Building Regulations, and be designed to meet targets such as low­carbon construction and operation, while ensuring occupants have adequate ventilation and protection from overheating. This guide considers these problems, their impact on the property


M


market and looks at the technology that can support the design and operation of multi­residential buildings. It discusses the importance of heat networks and heat pump


technology as crucial technologies for decarbonising the UK, and explores the need for developers to consider these heating and hot water options for multi­residential buildings. The guide also covers the growing focus on building occupant health, and how to combat the issue of overheating and maintain good indoor air quality when building new homes – including the role of Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) technology, which extracts stale air continuously from the dwelling while recovering heat from the outgoing air. “We’re seeing a large rise in the number of multi­residential


properties being built,” says Graham Temple, Marketing Manager. “With these new developments happening under tight regulation and carbon restrictions, it’s time developers looked towards new technologies that can help them overcome building challenges in a sustainable manner.” To support the guide, Mitsubishi Electric is hosting a webinar on the


3rd of February at 2pm. The webinar expands on the topics covered in the guide, and provide opportunity to discuss the issues and solutions. Register to attend the webinar below:

ESi provides heating controls for tallest city centre residential development in Second City


of Birmingham. It’s a 132­metre skyscraper ­ the tallest residential building in the city. The 42­storey 2one2 Broad Street features a slim rectangular profile thrusting out of a three­storey podium set to house 3,251 square metres of retail space. It’s built on the site of the old Tramps Night Club, close to Brindley Place. The 481­unit apartment tower will include a 200­metre


T


outdoor running track on the podium roof, the first of its kind for a residential building in the United Kingdom. Nearly 3,000 square metres of communal and amenity space will be provided within the skyscraper, including a residents' lounge, dining club area, and wellness zone. The building's elevators will be tech­savvy, with smart elevators controlled by an app on residents' phones. 481 of ESi’s ESRTP4 wired programmable room thermostats adorn the walls of these exciting new apartments. The ESRTP4 is an easy to install­and­use 7 day, 5/2 or 24hr programmable room thermostat which offers up to six time and temperature changes each day with different programmes for weekdays and weekends. The ESRTP4 has all the energy savings features such as TPI, Delayed Start and Optimum Stop and the all­important Landlord Service Interval.

Hoval’s UltraGas 2 is ‘hydrogen­ready’


UltraGas® 2 is also compatible with biomethane. Hoval General Manager Ian Dagley explained: “Whilst technologies such as heat pumps offer opportunities to reduce the use of fossil fuels, it is clear that combustion will continue to be the only viable option for many heating applications. In ensuring our boilers are hydrogen­ready we are enabling end users to meet zero carbon aspirations without compromising on the performance of their heating systems.” Thanks to the standardised Hoval TopTronic® E controller, UltraGas® 2 boilers can be easily combined


T


with any type of heat generator and solar energy system to create hybrid systems that deliver optimum efficiency with minimal emissions. With a maximum operating temperature of 95Deg.C they are ideal for use in district heating/heat networks. Efficiency is also inherent in the UltraGas® 2 design. For instance, the patented Hoval TurboFer® heat


exchanger uses injection technology to generate turbulence and boost efficiency, while high and low temperature return flow, a large water capacity and the Ultraclean® combustion system combine to deliver unparalleled performance. UltraGas® 2 models are available with output ratings from 125kW to 1550kW (250kW to 3,100kW as a double boiler), and in 10 bar versions for 720, 1100 and 1550kW units. Ease of installation has been a key element in the design, so there is no need for system components such as a circulating pump or hydraulic separator. The amount of pipework in the TurboFer® heat exchangers has also been reduced to minimise weight, resulting in a lightweight, compact design.

he UltraGas® 2 range, Hoval’s latest generation of gas condensing boilers, offers the option of using hydrogen as an alternative fuel to natural gas to help reduce carbon emissions. Moreover, gas­fired models that are installed now can easily be converted to hydrogen in the future.
