Hot Water & Heating Application Design, Provision and Servicing

Whatever your business – manufacture, retail, finance, hotel, restaurant, leisure services, professional sports, school, university, hospital, care home or government organisations – it is going to operate buildings that increasingly are being held accountable for the UK’s greenhouse gas emissions. Some 17% of these emissions – CO₂ and NOₓ – is directly attributed to the provision of heating and hot water in these buildings. But as business-critical services you cannot simply excise water and heating. Rather there needs to be a smarter approach to meeting your organisation’s demands whilst curtailing emissions. That is good for the environment and good for the organisation’s reputation, but what if that approach also meant you could dramatically reduce your operational expenses?

New construction and the refurbishment of existing properties is going to become increasingly important as the Government puts more pressure on organisations to achieve net-zero by 2050. That construction work will need to meet the green agenda, and Adveco is expertly positioned to help with meeting the demands for heating and hot water that are efficient, cost-effective to secure and operate, and be seen to be sustainable.

Talk to us today about:

Meeting domestic hot water (DHW) demands with commercial gas and electric water heaters, boilers, cylinders, packaged plate heat exchangers and electric immersion kits.
Commercial heating support with ranges of floor-standing and wall-hung gas boilers, carbon steel heating buffers and thermal storage.
Addressing sustainability through the integration of solar thermal, Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHP) and boxed heat recovery.
Smart control systems for increased efficiency and managed transition via hybrid approaches that extend the life of viable systems while addressing the need to reduce carbon.
Bringing all these varied elements together is Adveco’s packaged plant room offering, a bespoke prefabricated system build that makes full use of vacant space whilst leveraging all the advantages of offsite construction for hybrid and all-electric hot water and heating applications.

Live Metering – The most cost-effective and efficient path to sustainability for your office.

If you need assistance with a system for your office, then Adveco’s Live Metering service is for you. Live Metering requires an Adveco engineer to visit your site and install a water meter to provide hot water temperature monitoring for verified water data and comment on the risk of the existing system.

Adveco will return within the month to collect the meter. During these visits we can confirm space and clearances, and installation suitability, and once we have analysed the data give a truly accurate sizing and emissions/costs calculation.

Quick, non-evasive temporary installation
Visual site assessment & reporting by Adveco engineer
Consistent 6 minute data 24 hours per day on existing hot water systems
50% of monitoring fee deducted if system recommendation purchased from Adveco
Bespoke theoretical hot water modelling optimised to work with a building’s existing electrical supply
Daily & annual hot water demands
Annual estimated energy consumption
Annual estimated carbon emissions
Annual estimated operational costs

Adveco can then advise on a new hot water system which meets the demands of a building while increasing efficiency, lowering carbon emissions, and managing costs.

Adveco has been a trusted specialist provider of bespoke hot water, heating and low-carbon systems to the building services industry for 50 years. We operate across the commercial built environment, working with consultants, specifiers and designers. We support contractors with a single, versatile, specialist sales resource, and facility managers gain technical support and warranty service to ensure system longevity and help realise low total cost of ownership.

Looking forward, our commitment to renewable technology continues at pace. Bringing unique products to market that address the increasing demand for sustainability in new builds, while not losing sight of the need to extend and enhance the life of viable systems when refurbishing older building. This approach allows for more a more managed transition for addressing the needs a building whilst still reducing carbon.

Heat Pumps for Commercial Projects

For new office buildings which are serviced by electricity only, the deployment of air source heat pumps (ASHP) as a method of pre-heating water represent a clear opportunity to introduce low-carbon technology to meet sustainability goals.

Solar Thermal for Commercial Projects

A proven and extremely reliable technology, solar thermal offers a clear path to reducing CO₂ emissions.

Correctly designed and sized to the application, such as office services, solar thermal systems can generate a considerable proportion of the hot water requirements for buildings that are already on-gas with relatively short payback periods on the initial capital expenditure, while leveraging lower-cost gas to meet peak demands.

Recognising the implications on operational expense when switching to all-electric water heating, we would also advocate the use of solar thermal in new builds to offset at least 30% of annual hot water energy demands, reducing both operational costs and carbon emissions.

Electric Water Heating for Commercial Projects

Electric boilers and water heaters help to meet the demands being made of the commercial sector to cut carbon emissions in line with net zero strategies. Increasingly less reliant on fossil fuels for generation, using the electricity grid is increasingly being specified as a cleaner energy source for water heating. Whether new build or the transformational refurbishment of existing commercial buildings, electrically powered systems provide an efficient, futureproof means for delivering fast, efficient heating for domestic hot water production or central heating needs.

Adveco appliances support a range of projects with wall-mounted and floor-standing systems to cater to the wide needs of commercial buildings. Packaged hybrid electric systems also offer a more compact, resilient, fast-to-install and easier-to-maintain alternative for those wishing to avoid a reliance on gas energy supplies.

Gas Water Heating for Commercial Projects

Commercial buildings with large hot water demands and an existing gas connection may continue to take advantage of this lower-cost energy resource to heat water. Whilst strongly urged to adopt a more environmentally friendly approach to heating a building’s water, many leisure organisations will still find value in remaining on gas. With minimal disturbance for business continuity if replacement is required, manageable capital investment and low operational costs this familiar technology remains a popular replacement option when older appliances fail.

For buildings already on the gas network and seeking to gain lower carbon status, replacement gas-fired appliances working in conjunction with heat pumps or solar thermal provide a familiar, practical, highly effective means for offsetting gas demands to lower carbon emissions of legacy gas-only water heating systems.

Adveco supports commercial projects with the latest generation of condensing gas water heaters. Harnessing cutting-edge materials, production and energy management technology, it is now easier than ever to maximise fuel use, cutting energy demands, running costs and carbon emissions. All new gas water heaters are also able to support future gas sources with up to 20% blended hydrogen without any alteration. This makes gas water heaters an excellent bridging technology for existing buildings, future-proofing systems in preparation for potentially larger investment decisions in the future as the nationwide net zero strategy is finalised.
