BOILERS, PUMPS, VALVES & PIPES
SPACE SAVING BOILERS ENSURE EFFICIENT HEATING AT DONCASTER RACECOURSE
W
hen the boilers at Doncaster Racecourse reached the end of their operational life, Essex-based contractor ProRite evaluated the site’s requirements before turning to the local Hamworthy Heating representative. To meet the requirements, a new Upton floor-standing modular boiler system was specified to efficiently meet the high demands placed on the venue, with minimum disruption. The company proposed installing three vertically
stacked Upton UF900-3 floor standing condensing boilers and a low loss header kit with a combined air and dirt separator. Upton modular boilers feature an aluminium heat exchanger and can deliver 1MW output from less than 1m² of floor space. Delivered fully assembled to site for easy installation, this design makes optimal use of space in the plant room at Doncaster Racecourse. Of additional benefit, its lightweight construction means that there was no need for costly cranes or heavy lifting equipment during the installation. Available in 18 different models with outputs
ranging from 100 to 1050kW, the Upton floor- standing modular boiler system at the racecourse delivers an output of 900kW and a gross seasonal efficiency of up to 97%. A modulation of 5:1 per module (increasing to 15:1 in a three-high vertical stack) also allows closer output control.
As a result, Doncaster Racecourse can expect to benefit from increased future savings on fuel bills and reduced emissions. To ensure the new Upton modular boiler system was set up to achieve maximum efficiency, commissioning was also carried out by one of Hamworthy Heating’s approved service engineers. The system was installed by ProRite.
Alfie Paradise, operations director, commented: “We’ve been working with Hamworthy for over ten years and have always received a great service. We chose the Upton for this particular project because of its compact, vertically stacked design. This decision enabled us to overcome tight space restrictions in the plant room at Doncaster Racecourse. Moreover, as the site had no existing heating, Hamworthy was able to provide us with a prompt and efficient service.” In addition to increased floorspace
thanks to the stacking design, Doncaster Racecourse is now benefitting from a modern, reliable, and efficient heating system.
