SPONSORS WHAT’S NEW VentAxia’s Energy Efficient Ventilation Helps Provide Comfort in Luxury Home L


eading British fan manufacturer VentAxia has been specified as part of a luxury 1,300m2 newbuild family home in Kingswood, Surrey.


Designed to provide privacy, space, luxury and comfort the property spans four floors, with five VentAxia Sentinel Kinetic High Flow Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) units providing ventilation for this extensive project. Featuring a cinema, a basement swimming pool with spa and sauna, a golf simulation room and a fullyequipped fitness suite, as well as a separate studio flat for guests, all of which will benefit from quiet, energy efficient effective ventilation. This impressive build was project managed by

carbon hot water system. The Adveco Packaged EHot Water System addresses project


T


limitations by creating a standardised external plant room with essential building services already located within it. The unit leverages all the advantages of offsite construction to provide a resilient environmentally friendly, low carbon, hot water system that helps reduce both a building’s energy consumption and operational costs across its lifetime. The system comprises an inverterdriven Adveco FPi9 ASHP mounted


on the outside of a reinforced wall of the GRP housing, and inside, an Adveco 200L GLC indirect preheat tank. This preheated water is transferred into an Adveco 200L GLE direct electric water heater that provides reliable hightemperature water from a compact and convenient form factor that can be easily located on a site. Adveco’s Packaged EHot Water System makes full use of


the FPi9 ASHP to provide the system preheat from 10°C to 50°C, supplying 70% of the DHW load. As the coefficient of performance (COP) will often be determined by the characteristics of the hot water system installation and setup, opting for a prefabricated system ensures the electricity invested in order to run the ASHP and heat transferred from the evaporator to the condenser is optimised. By offsetting 70% of the energy requirement, the Packaged EHot Water


System can demonstrate a 47% reduction in energy demands and CO² emissions for the same output of 500,000 litres of hot water each year when compared with a similar direct electric only system. The reduced energy demand also means operational savings can be added to the capital savings secured during the design, supply, and installation phases.

A completely new specification that lowers the heat intensity, without


detrimental effect to the demands for hot water, means the Packaged E Hot Water System is also more resistant to scale, reducing maintenance demands. For sites where hot water is business critical, an additional 6kW immersion heater in the GLE provides backup should there ever be a failure of the lead heat source. Adveco's Packaged EHot Water System is ideal for a wide range of


commercial properties with regular hot water demands such as restaurants and boutique hotels, offices and schools. The system is perfect for both new build and refurbishment where space is at a premium.

combine cooling, heating and fourway air distribution in one compact unit. They have wide operating parameters so can be adjusted at any stage of a project to cater for changing demand requirements without the need to remodel the whole ventilation system. They come in three sizes between 600mm to 1800mm. PARASOL Zenith can also be adapted to deliver highly energy efficient demandcontrolled ventilation using motorised control of the builtin dampers. This means that the specifier requires only one product whether the air flow is designed to be constant, variable or demandcontrolled. This adaptability is particularly


useful in projects where changes are made at late stages of the design process. Also, when the budding undergoes structural alterations during refurbishment or change of use. the PARASOL Zenith can simply be adjusted to satisfy the needs of the new space. The unit also provides energy


efficient heating, cooling and ventilation using water as the cooling or heating medium rather than refrigerant gas, which is another benefit at a time when

these gases are facing increasing. restrictions under the FGas Regulation. PARASOL Zenith modules are


more efficient in operation than fan coil units and almost completely silent thans to their innovative design. This is based around the principle of allowing positive pressure to build up inside the plenum chamber, which allows the air to flow out at high speed in small jet streams. This, in turn, generates negative pressure inside the unit that draws in room air through induction. The room air passes through a heat exchanger, where it is either cooled or heated as required. The mixed air is then


distributed across the ceiling via aerodynamic outlets and the ‘Coandâ effect’ ensures that the room is supplied silently with tempered, fresh air at the correct temperature and without draughts. With such a high performance from a compact unit, it is possible to free up ceiling space and minimise impact on the interior décor. PARASOL Zenith is available


with a hingedown heat exchanger to simplify cleaning. It is also possible to disassemble the heat exchanger completely for projects where particularly high levels of system hygiene are required. To learn more please contact Swegon.
