Packaged Plant Rooms
Creating a modern, efficient, cost-effective, and sustainable commercial hot water and heating system is not just advantageous, it is increasingly becoming a demand as the United Kingdom transitions towards a more environmentally friendly Net-Zero nation by 2050.
This process of modernisation is not necessarily straightforward for some sites. They may be limited in terms of existing plant room space, or in the case of much older buildings, have no dedicated plant room space at all. Other sites may face limitations in terms of when work can actually be carried out on site. If a works window is especially narrow it can preclude larger scale project work.
Features & Key Technologies
Relocate essential services and maximise space
Increase teaching spaces in schools, add rooms to a hotel or extend workspaces. By relocating essential building services into an external packaged plant room, valuable internal areas can be released. Adveco will size, design, and manufacture weatherproof GRP enclosures suitable for placement beside or on a building’s flat roof.
Protect project timescales
Locating all production work offsite means the plant room element of a project can progress at the same time as other groundworks or site installations. Should there be forced downtime on-site, as faced during the pandemic, assembly work at Adveco will continue as planned. The entire system is delivered in single, robust glass-reinforced plastic (GRP) housing.
Improve quality and speed of work
With a controlled, purpose-made factory environment and deep product knowledge, Adveco’s offsite construction facilities provide enhanced quality control with manufacturer assured standards. Without distractions from other typical construction site activities, we can ensure your plant room work is more rapidly progressed.
Control and protect on-site labour
As the plant room arrives with all appliances, controls and ancillaries pre-fitted and connected – using stainless steel (heating) or copper (Domestic Hot Water) crimp pipework as standard – there is no need for extended plumbing and electrical installation by specialist contractors which is both cost-effective and, safer for all working on site.
Low Carbon Packaged e-Hot Water Systems
Adveco’s Packaged E-Hot Water Systems standardise the plant room offering with a system built around the award-winning FUSION hybrid water heating concept. This applies it to deliver the most compact, reliable and low-carbon electric hot water offsite constructed system (OSCS).
The PPR0007 is an electric water heating system consisting of a 24kW Ardent electric boiler and a 210 litre stainless steel ATSi cylinder with 9 kW backup electric immersion.
The PPR0008 is an enhanced system that combines a 10 kW ADVS-W ASHP to provide the system preheat, accounting for up to 70% of the DHW load for enhanced carbon savings. The system features a 12 kW Ardent P12 electric boiler and a pair of ATSI cylinders for 420 litres of storage. Additional backup for assured operation is supplied from a 9kW immersion.
The PPR0007 retains the options for upgrading with an ASHP at a later date, offering a versatile response to evolving sustainability programmes, which demand future-proof functionality.
With stainless steel construction and operating in an indirect loop, both systems are resistant to corrosive soft water and generate almost zero limescale in hard water areas for improved system longevity and reduced maintenance demands.
Adveco’s Packaged Electric Hot Water Systems are ideal for a wide range of commercial properties with regular hot water demands such as restaurants and boutique hotels, offices, schools, and light industry. The system is also perfect for both new builds and refurbishment, where space is at a premium.

Options
Adveco combines deep engineering understanding, with a wide product offering and experience in full system design, to provide a single source of supply for the delivery of complete Packaged Plant Rooms containing heating and hot water systems tailored precisely to fit the specific needs of a project.
Working with Adveco helps you achieve timely project delivery through proper coordination of application design, securing of equipment and controls and post-installation commissioning works.
- Improve the sustainability of your building – Combine the latest in commercial ASHP technology from Adveco with high-efficiency indirect and direct electric water heaters to provide reliable high-temperature water for a truly sustainable application. The ASHP can generate the system preheat up to 55°C, supplying as much as 70% of the DHW load.
- Cut operational costs – Greater efficiency appliances actively help reduce operational costs. Or by offsetting with solar thermal or ASHP preheat, Adveco can lower energy demands by almost 50% compared to similarly configured direct-electric only systems, for excellent savings across the system’s operational lifespan.
- Reduce your building’s energy demands – Adveco offer a range of products that support active reduction of energy demands from your system. From the latest generation of highly efficient condensing gas boiler and water heater technology, including the Adveco MD and AD ranges that utilise pre-mix burners to achieve market-defining combustion efficiencies of up to 106%, through to electric water heaters and Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs).
- Control your CO, CO2 and NOx emissions – An ASHP based pre-heat configuration, as used in the Adveco Packaged e-Hot Water System, can demonstrate a 47% reduction in CO2 emissions for the same output of 500,000 litres of hot water each year when compared with a similar direct electric-only system. Adveco’s MD boiler and AD water heater ranges offer market-leading efficiency, for some of the lowest emissions for their category.
