Adveco ipgrades GL Carbon Steel Tanks
C
ommercial hot water specialist Adveco has upgraded its GLC & GLT hot water tanks for 2024. The GL range of off -the-shelf cylinders off er low-cost carbon steel shells with a high-quality inorganic
enamel lining for commercial hot water projects (DHW) projects requiring direct electric heating, buff er storage, indirect heating or preheat. Single coil GLC and twin-coil GLT models from 200 to 1000 litres, now incorporate an additional connection located on the upper side of the cylinder providing greater versatility for installation. This addition ensures there are ports available for all common ancillary items, allowing the hot water tanks to be used eff ectively in a wider range of applications.
“For the majority of applications, where cylinders are installed as part of an unvented hot water system, the new connection will serve as a dedicated port for a temperature and pressure relief valve, allowing other high-level connections on the front and top of the tanks to be fi lled with thermostats or sensors and anodic protection,” said Bill Sinclair, technical director, Adveco. “This will help ensure a system operates effi ciently and is suffi ciently protected from corrosive eff ects of mains water to provide increased longevity.”

Exi-tite develops heat pump packaged system for potable hot water
H
VAC equipment supplier Exi-tite has developed a self-contained potable hot water system using the latest heat pump technology with AI capabilities.
The packaged system can be installed as a permanent fi xture or mobile ‘plug-in’ solution across various applications such as offi ces, hotels and student accommodation, with heating capacities ranging between 13kW and 240kW and low-GWP refrigerant options. Prefabricated off -site, the system is designed to save time, avoid logistical complications, and reduce installation problems that occur with typical on-site works. It is constructed on a structural framework and designed to be wheeled or crane lifted into position. Andrew Robinson, Managing Director of Exi-tite, said: “Heat pumps are being used increasingly for space heating and potable hot water, but the feedback from consultants and M&E contractors has been that when installed incorrectly, they became an expensive problem. We have managed to navigate around the majority of on-site issues and found a solution that provides peace of mind. ”
LG VRF heat pumps provide modular capacity control and redundancy, and are inverter-driven with both latent and sensible load monitoring. Each Multi V i system is connected to a high-temperature hydro kit, capable of producing water temperatures up to 80°C and provide 100% heating capacity down to -7°C, reducing the increase in capital costs associated with oversizing equipment to accommodate typical losses.

Devon NHS Trust embraces heat pumps on the road to Net Zero
T
he Devon Partnership NHS Trust is cutting its energy consumption and carbon footprint by upgrading the heating and cooling system at Langdon Hospital in Dawlish.
This is the site of the Dewnans Centre which provides accommodation for men with mental health needs.
While living on a site located less than a mile from the sea can be good for the mind and benefi cial to patients, the Trust needed a solution that could cope with saline in the atmosphere, and able to help the centre improve energy effi ciency.
Mitsubishi Electric provided three e-Series EAHV1500 YCL modular heat pump units for underfl oor heating in the winter months, and two e-Series EACV1800 YCL modular chillers for underfl oor cooling in the summer months. The units were connected using the e-Series unique internal header, which removes the need for separate piping connections, valves and commissioning, and reduces cost and installation time. “Our old system was not suited to building a greener future. The energy consumption and costs for the old chillers were increasing signifi cantly year on year. We’ve already seen an overall reduction in energy consumption with our new sustainable system, so we are very hopeful that in addition to reducing carbon emissions, we will also be reducing our running costs,” explained Collette Germon, Sustainability and Energy manager for the Trust.
