This system has been our most popular model over the last year, probably because it is the simplest way to provide properties with high pressure hot water. Plumbing is simple, with no cold storage tanks, and ONLY two pipework connections required (cold mains water in and hot out). Electrically, installation is as simple as wiring the power lead(s) into a wall socket. All controls are pre-fitted, including immersion heater controls (suitable for Economy 7 tariff) and hot water tempering valve. The system can be fitted in under 1 hour. |
Electric
Hot Water Systems Removing the need for a gas boiler entirely, the Heat Bank 2000 provides both hot water and central heating. It is capable of driving central heating loads of up to 12kW continuously, and the store can make effective use of economy tariffs (such as the Economy 9 Tariff). The store heat up periods and heating periods are controlled via timers fitted to the unit. A room thermostat is supplied loose, and will require wiring back to the store. All remaining controls required for a fully sealed central heating system are factory fitted and wired where necessary. The heating flow temperature is adjustable, making this system suitable for underfloor heating or radiators. |

Hot Water Systems for Gas & Oil For customers using gas or oil boilers, these systems provide almost everything else needed to get a mains hot water & heating system up and running. Plumbing is simple, with no cold storage tanks, and no feed and expansion tanks. Radiators and hot water taps can be positioned independently of the store, allowing loft conversions. The store is optionally kitted out with a full control pack, with hot water and heating controlled via a two-channel programmer fitted to the unit. A room thermostat is supplied loose, and will require wiring back to the store, as will the boiler. All remaining controls (including a high head primary pump, hot water zone valve, heating zone valve, 12 litre expansion vessel, pressure relief, pressure gauge, filling loop, cylinder thermostat, and hot water tempering valve) are factory fitted and wired where necessary, making a quick and easy installation. End users will be able to run taps and showers simultaneously, make use of luxury shower heads, and and fill a bath in under four minutes. A high duty coil within the store allows rapid heat-up of stored water following periods of heavy use. A backup immersion heater provides the facility to heat water electrically in case of a problem with the gas boiler. |

How can any portfolio of heating systems be complete without catering for underfloor heating. This is a very rapidly growing industry, with systems getting ever easier to install. Our range of Underfloor Heat Banks covers all brand-name underfloor systems, as well as basic pipework systems that require a temperature controlled flow. We also have the only system that provides all of the following, ready to connect and turn on:

For the luxury end of the market, hotels and light commercial uses, nothing matches our twin plate heat exchanger stores. The units are up to 450 litres in capacity, and fitted with a very large indirect heating coil to ensure quick recovery. To provide very large outputs of mains pressure hot water, the units each have two large plate heat exchangers, giving a total output of over 300kW - enough to supply over 15 showers at once. Each heat exchanger is fitted with a thermostatic blending valve to control hot water temperature. Two cylinder thermostats are provided, along with wiring centre and control relay. This is to ensure that larger boilers do not cycle by holding off recovery of the store until there is a reasonable volume of water to be re-heated. A backup immersion heater provides the facility to heat water electrically in case of a problem with the boiler. |

Booster Pump
The Home Booster Pump is a simple and SILENT in-line booster pump, that increases the pressure to outlets. The pump is fully automatic, with an in-built flow switch that turns the pump on when an outlet is opened. Although not suitable for driving multiple taps, the Home Booster can turn a weak shower into one to look forward to. |

|
Where higher pressures are needed, we can supply various booster pump systems to suit. |

Plate Heat Exchanger system for use on domestic boiler applications. Diverts water from boiler primaries to heat mains water. Overcomes need for hot water storage, but is limited by output of boiler and will typically only supply one outlet at once. |
Modular Plate Heat Exchanger system for use on central boiler applications with multiple dwellings. Each unit draws water from boiler primaries to heat mains water at up to 100kW. Overcomes need for hot water storage. |
Custom made pipework arrays, with customers choice of controls. From simple heating distribution, through to full heat metered hot water and heating boards. |
