ELCO Heating Solutions has supplied three THISION® L EVO 120kW boilers on a cascade frame to Wentworth Place in Surrey.
Advertorial
Wentworth Place, an 11 bedroom private residence, required a powerful and efficient heating and hot water system that could adapt to the changing demands of the property, including a high DHW load and the requirements of an outdoor swimming pool. The refurbishment consisted of replacing six defective units from another supplier, with new, fit for purpose ELCO boilers.
After careful consideration of the system profile and overall requirements, THISION® L EVO boilers were specified, along with a low loss header and new combined flue arrangement. The boilers’ high turndown ratio and excellent seasonal efficiencies were key contributing factors for their installation, with the units supplying the perfect balance of power and all year round performance.
Part of the success of the project was attributed to the design of the cascade rig and the flue system, which allowed for rapid installation and

minimal downtime. To reduce heat losses and optimise efficiency, as well as provide a clean finish to the installation, the THISION® L EVO cascade system was supplied with a full set of insulation panels to neatly cover the flow and return tubes, as well as the low loss header. To complete the task, ELCO partnered with South Wales-based commercial heating engineers, Boiler Burner Maintenance (BBM) Ltd. Managing Director at BBM, Steve Gooding, explained: “This was the first time we’d fitted THISION® boilers and have to say we were really impressed, especially with the cascade frame and insulation kit. It all came together on site perfectly, which was really important given the time constraints we were under.” For more information on the full range of gas condensing boilers from ELCO Heating Solutions, visit:

uThe MHG Gassero Wallcon boilers and MHG hot water cylinders installed at Bloomsbury Plaza in central London as part of a major refurbishment programme.
Located on the corner of Bloomsbury Street and New Oxford Street, Bloomsbury Plaza comprises ground level retail units with offices above and basement car parking. The extensive refurbishment project includes replacement of all plant and engineering services. Specified by ITD Consultants and installed by the Special Projects Division of Briggs and Forrester, the two MHG 115kW Gassero Wallcon boilers were supplied complete with wall- mounting frames, along with two MHG hot water cylinders which are serving two separate zones within the building.
As the plant room is on the roof, the boilers, frame and associated pipework were delivered in component parts for assembly on site.
MHG Gassero Wallcon 115kW wall-mounted gas-fired condensing boilers feature low NOx (Class 5) performance and incorporate a fully modulating pre-mix burner with 4:1 turndown capability. They can be supplied with matched mounting frames and cascade hydraulics including low loss headers or matched system separation plate heat exchangers. For more information visit:

Trend Control Systems has announced the availability of its next generation IQ®VISION monitoring and management solution.
Trend new IQ®VISION keeps energy savings in the line of sight
The successor to the pioneering 963 Supervisor, IQ®VISION integrates Trend controllers, third party smart devices and internet protocols into a centralised software platform that is designed to manage buildings at an enterprise level, and give building owners and managers the ability to identify issues and optimise their systems. Packed with features that allow users to get the very best from their BEMS and save energy in real time, IQ®VISION provides graphical information to standard internet browsers. Flexibility is built into IQ®VISION with the ability to integrate ‘Third Party’ devices using open standard protocols such as BACnet, Modbus, MBUS and KNX.
Other useful functions include centralised data logging, archiving, alarming, trending, master scheduling, system wide database management, and integration with enterprise software applications – all of which can be used for highlighting and investigating energy use within buildings.
Security is paramount and it comes with in-built authentication that requires users to choose strong
Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) passwords that are then encrypted. To further enhance security, a comprehensive audit trail of database changes, database storage and back-up, global time functions, calendars, central scheduling, control and energy management routines can also be configured. As with all Trend devices, backwards compatibility is designed in from the outset and IQ®VISION boasts a System Migration Tool that enables users to import system data from an existing 963 Supervisor. In addition the Schematics Migration Tool automatically converts existing 963 Supervisor schematics and library symbols to the new IQ®VISION HTML5 based page format, which can then be edited.
Furthermore, IQ®VISION includes integrated network management tools that support the design, configuration, installation and maintenance of interoperable networks, where multiple Trend IQ® controllers can be networked together.

controls.com SAV’s AirMaster meets low noise criteria for radio broadcasting
The University of Edinburgh’s student radio station was launched in 1992 and is one of the longest running student broadcasting services. It was recently re-branded as an internet radio station called
FreshAir.org.uk and its facilities were refurbished.
As both the studio and the media room are windowless there was a need for mechanical ventilation and AirMaster units were specified by The Keenan Consultancy for their ability to meet strict performance criteria. These included a requirement for very low noise levels during broadcasting, as well as demand controlled ventilation to align fan operation to variable occupancy levels, thereby optimising energy efficiency.
uSAV Systems’ AirMaster mechanical ventilation with heat recovery units have been installed at the University of Edinburgh’s student radio station.

AirMaster delivers inherently quiet operation (35dBA at 1m) which can be further reduced by lowering fan speed (e.g. 30dBA at 1m at 80% of full throughput). In the case of
FreshAir.org.uk, the fan speeds have been set to a maximum upper limit to ensure silent operation.
The units can also attenuate external noise by at least 49dB to minimise intrusion of external noise. Each AirMaster unit is controlled through an ORBIT control panel, using integrated CO2 sensors to monitor indoor air quality and modulate ventilation rates in relation to occupancy.
AirMaster units have been installed at high level in both spaces and are fitted with M5 air filtration as standard to ensure that occupants are protected from external pollutants. Filtration of incoming and outgoing air safeguards heat exchanger performance by preventing fouling of surfaces.
Avoiding draughts was also a consideration and this is achieved by a combination of the automatic inlet temperature control that is incorporated in all AirMaster units, combined with use of the Coanda effect to provide a smooth flow of fresh air across the ceiling.
