av_uid=’av-mzj2kn’ sc_version=’1.0′ admin_preview_bg=”] The importance of addressing pandemic hot water demands was apparent from the earliest days of the Covid-19 outbreak. The need for improved hygiene was reiterated over and over again through campaigns to encourage handwashing as well as the thorough cleaning of working environments. As specialists in the provision of commercial hot water, Adveco was approached across a range of commercial sectors to help improve the provision of business-critical hot water supplies. Projects across the healthcare sector, especially within the NHS, were typified by the need for high levels of redundancy to guarantee services as well as accelerated timeframes for project delivery.

One of the first of these was Newport Lighthouse Laboratory, South Wales. For Newport’s new Covid laboratory gas-fired water heaters were specified alongside heating controls and flueing to meet the pandemic hot water demands. Based on the initial specification for domestic hot water (DHW) for the general accommodations, laboratory hand basins and white areas. However, it rapidly became apparent the demands placed on the laboratory were increasing, leading to a doubling of the number of washbasins in the facility from the initial specification. With an increased system demand to address Adveco upgraded the application design to incorporate a BFC120, which would extend the system’s storage capabilities from the initial 368-litre capacity to 480.

Installed into the mezzanine plant room, the system was supplied by Adveco with a sized expansion vessel, unvented kit, temperature and pressure gauges and flue kit. In line with the specification for heater controls, the BFC120 provides a high degree of security and control and remote status indication. With a highly efficient (92%) modulating premix burner, the BFC more than meets ecodesign specifications and, in the case of the laboratory, emissions were a concern, especially for nitrogen dioxide (NOx) with 37 mg/kWh GCV set as a maximum. The system based around the BFC120 met all the specification requirements and today continues to deliver the daily pandemic hot water demands for the laboratory.

The ward was required to cater for the hygiene of both staff and patients, with a specification that incorporated nine staff showers and a further 57 for patients, 175 basins and 31 sinks. With the scale of implementation, a life expectancy of the system was set at a minimum of 15 to 20 years to warrant the investment. The specification also demanded short recovery times to ensure availability and a thorough level of redundancy. With the system sizing carried out by Adveco’s inhouse application design team, the optimal choice would be based around a packaged plate semi-storage heat … Read more

construction project in the financial district of the City of London. Operated by Brookfield Properties, the development is a stunning all-glazed tower offering 37 floors of mixed-use that has been designed and constructed to meet the highest standard of efficiency, achieving an ‘Excellent’ BREEAM rating to maximise sustainability and reduce the carbon footprint over the lifetime of the building. [/av_textblock] [av_hr class=’invisible’ icon_select=’yes’ icon=’ue808′ font=’entypo-fontello’ position=’center’ shadow=’no-shadow’ height=’20’ custom_border=’av-border-thin’ custom_width=’50px’ custom_margin_top=’30px’ custom_margin_bottom=’30px’ custom_border_color=” custom_icon_color=” id=” custom_class=” av_uid=’av-kkci9yiq’ admin_preview_bg=”] [av_textblock textblock_styling_align=” textblock_styling=” textblock_styling_gap=” textblock_styling_mobile=” size=” av-medium-font-size=” av-small-font-size=” av-mini-font-size=” font_color=” color=” id=” custom_class=” template_class=” av_uid=’av-mzj2kn’ sc_version=’1.0′ admin_preview_bg=”] To achieve this, environmentally conscious systems and materials have been used within the building’s design, construction and ongoing maintenance. Everything from building materials, to occupation sensors and biodiversity, have been addressed to deliver the building’s outstanding sustainability. Whilst the majority of the building’s heating demands are achieved through the use of photovoltaic panels to generate energy and the large-scale application of heat exchangers to recover any waste energy, there was an additional demand for the provision of domestic hot water (DHW) for the tenants and staff. As part of this process, Adveco worked with design authority Hilson Moran and consultants Michael J Lonsdale on the provision of the building’s hot water. Adveco’s application design team was tasked with meeting the separate needs of Brookfield Properties and its tenants, with plant facilities that would be built around A.O. Smith BFC high-efficiency gas water heaters. In addition, a roof-top site would allow for the installation of a solar preheat system with dedicated water heaters. [/av_textblock] [av_hr class=’invisible’ icon_select=’yes’ icon=’ue808′ font=’entypo-fontello’ position=’center’ shadow=’no-shadow’ height=’20’ custom_border=’av-border-thin’ custom_width=’50px’ custom_margin_top=’30px’ custom_margin_bottom=’30px’ custom_border_color=” custom_icon_color=” id=” custom_class=” av_uid=’av-kkci9yiq’ admin_preview_bg=”] [av_textblock size=” av-medium-font-size=” av-small-font-size=” av-mini-font-size=” font_color=’custom’ color=’#008c15′ id=” custom_class=’quote-box’ template_class=” av_uid=’av-mzj2kn’ sc_version=’1.0′ admin_preview_bg=”] Through close partnership, a blend of sustainable and practical applications were designed. [/av_textblock] [av_hr class=’invisible’ icon_select=’yes’ icon=’ue808′ font=’entypo-fontello’ position=’center’ shadow=’no-shadow’ height=’20’ custom_border=’av-border-thin’ custom_width=’50px’ custom_margin_top=’30px’ custom_margin_bottom=’30px’ custom_border_color=” custom_icon_color=” id=” custom_class=” av_uid=’av-kkci9yiq’ admin_preview_bg=”] [av_textblock size=” av-medium-font-size=” av-small-font-size=” av-mini-font-size=” font_color=” color=” id=” custom_class=” template_class=” av_uid=’av-mzj2kn’ sc_version=’1.0′ admin_preview_bg=”] The solar preheat system consists of four roof-mounted solar collectors with integrated drain back for overheat protection. The collectors feed a 500 litre IT indirect water heater. Here the solar energy is accumulated, with the IT acting as a dedicated solar store providing preheat which then feeds a pair of BFC80 fully room-sealed condensing high-efficiency (97% gross) gas-fired water heaters. Smart controls and system management not only help ensure the solar thermal application remains operational, but ensures the efficiency needed to meet the sustainability targets of the building. The solar system uses a smart differential temperature controller to manage the solar station pump. This controller activates the pump when the solar collector sensor temperature is higher than that of the solar preheat sensor, transferring heat from the collector to the preheat tank coil until the tank reaches its set-point reading, or if the solar intensity drops and the collector cools to the Preheat temperature.

This balancing is critical if the solar thermal system is to operate efficiently without wasting generated energy. The solar control will sense if the preheat tank reaches 70°C and, if the monitored after-heater temperature is less (60-65°C), the exchange pump will be activated forcing preheated water to the BFCs. The pump turns off once the pre-heat temperature drops to 60°C. This ensures that the solar energy is used most advantageously, effectively turning the IT tank into a combined solar preheat, extending the pre-heat volume and allowing efficient use of solar energy. Without this balancing, the thermal losses could be equivalent to turning off half of the building’s solar thermal collectors. As well as the smart controls, the solar thermal system offers ongoing monitoring for improved management with a volt free alarm contact on the BFCs for general fault indication on the BMS. … Read more

burger restaurant chain that launched in Arlington, Virginia in 1986. Since then the brand has successfully expanded to the UK. Beginning a roll-out of branches in 2013, today, Five Guys has more than 100 sites across the UK and Northern Ireland.

The restaurants pride themselves on not having freezers on site. As a result, Five Guy’s restaurants have a large hot water demand, peaking prior to 11 am for food preparation and then again at the end of the day as each restaurant receives a thorough flooding and wash down to ensure hygiene throughout the premises.

Smith in its US restaurants, Five Guys initially approached long-term A.O. Smith supplier Adveco for its UK sites. That partnership has grown, and today Adveco not only exclusively supplies Five Guys with A.O. Smith water heaters, but also works in close partnership to advise, generate system designs, commission appliances and provide full manufacturer quality planned maintenance and servicing. Adveco currently supports more than 80 restaurants across the chain’s portfolio which continues to grow, with new sites recently opening in Manchester, Camden, Braintree, Peterborough and on London’s Portobello Road.

Sites will typically see the installation of either an A.O. Smith BFC 50H Cyclone, a fully ducted stainless-steel condensing gas-fired water heater or a DRE 120/35 electric water heater. With a 54kW rating, 200 – 300 litres capacity and electric elements independently controlled via their own control thermostat (adjustable: 49 – 82°C) the DRE ensures steady and responsive heating for Five Guys’ applications. These appliances will be supported with an unvented kit, temperature and pressure gauge and commissioning to ensure installation has been completed correctly.

Original sizing of the system requirements established in the US were deemed to over-compensate, especially when compared to the needs of typical UK sites. Apart from early and late in day peaks, hot water demand during the day is relatively limited in terms of kitchen and supply to the public washrooms. On the advice of Adveco, Five Guys has now begun trials at the Camden Parkway and Portobello Road restaurants with the A.O. Smith IR Innovo, a fully room-sealed condensing gas-fired water heater.

Low NOₓ emissions means it easily complies with the strictest European guidelines and the versatile flue option allows installations to be placed almost anywhere. Critically, construction of the heat exchangers limits the effect of scaling, which remains an ongoing issue in hard water areas. Typically, Adveco will service the hot … Read more

A high capacity, floor-standing fully condensing gas boiler, the MD was created expressly to address the need for highly efficient commercial heating in locations where space would limit or prevent the use of wall or frame-mounted boilers. Containing patented titanium-stabilised stainless steel heat exchangers within the floor standing cabinet, the MD provides a durable, corrosion-resistant boiler.

Those stations range from new, modern, purpose-built sites to listed buildings constructed more than a century ago. Despite the variety of buildings all have an operational need for 24/7 hot water and heating to support the shift-based crews. London Fire Brigade, therefore, needs access to a range of products and services to support varied legacy systems as well as new projects throughout Greater London.

Smith water heaters, or appliances from its own range of boilers for heating. Projects in the past five years have seen new installations completed in more than 50 stations and the work continues today.
