Grantʼs innovative heating technologies are reducing carbon emissions and future proofing new build properties For many years, Grantʼs main priority has been to manufacture heating technologies that provide the highest efficiencies and reduce carbon emissions to help on the journey to zero carbon. As more new developments are built throughout Ireland, demand for innovative, sustainable and renewable heating technologies continues to increase amongst those working in the construction trade. With a growing focus on sustainability and reducing environmental impact, incorporating renewable heating sources into a new build property is crucial as it will help to future-proof the property, whilst also helping to meet Part L compliance of building regulations.

Grant Aerona3 R32 air to water air source heat pump.

A popular and renewable main heat source for new builds is the highly efficient Grant Aerona³ R32 air to water air source heat pump which provides compliance and an energy efficient, sustainable and cost-effective way to heat a property. With an ErP rating of A+++, the Aerona³ R32 range is available in outputs of 6kW, 10kW, 13kW and 17kW and the units can help to achieve nearly zero-energy building (NZEB) standards, as required by all new build properties in Ireland. Grant also provides those working on new build properties with highly efficient hot water storage options, including the new Grant Integrated Unit and the pre-plumbed and pre-wired hot water cylinder. Both cylinders have a 210 litre capacity, with large solid stainless steel coils to give quick and efficient hot water production. The pre-plumbed cylinder has the zone valves and controls fitted, allowing for simple and efficient pipework and electrical connections. The Integrated Unit has all the benefits of a pre-plumbed cylinder, however it is enclosed in a sleek white casing and is commonly fitted in utility rooms, where space may be of a premium. To heat individual rooms, underfloor heating and aluminium radiators are great modern heat emitter choices and can support the overall design and architecture of the space whilst also creating comfort.
