BESA BOOK 2024 WELCOME

Let’s make this a year of action

Claire Curran, BESA President, looks at how the building services sector needs to take more action and do less talking about the challenges and risks it faces in 2024.

A

year of great sadness with the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II also saw soaring inflation and the weaponising of fossil fuels by Russia. Five years on from the Grenfell Tower tragedy, 2022 also finally witnessed the passing of the most far-reaching building safety legislation in half a century – and we had the first 40degC plus temperatures recorded in England during an unprecedented heatwave.

BESA will also continue to play its important role in making sure the guidance and support we give to our members allows them to change and manage their risk. This should ensure they do not just keep up with the pace of change – but thrive both financially and technically.

However, that requires us to do more than pay lip service to the changes happening around us.

A lot of people talk a good game – not least about getting to grips with the new culture of building safety, the push for healthier and more sustainable indoor environments, the rapid growth in digital processes, and the need to pay suppliers fairly and on time.

But there is also plenty of evidence that not everyone is truly embracing these changes. What we do, rather than what we say is the true measure of success – and as a trade association we will be measured by our actions.

Competence and compliance

So, this year we will continue with our ambitious programme of key activities designed to address the need for improved competence and compliance across the sector. For example, our Competence Assessment Standard which underpins membership, was recently updated and revamped to be fit for the modern working environment.

We will continue to launch SKILLcards for key professions and produce technical guidance for a wide range of specialist building engineering sectors backed up by online and in person training programmes.

However, if I had to pick out just two areas where we must make real progress quickly, it would have to be the Building Safety Act and the use of information – two key topics that are referred to repeatedly in this issue of the BESA Book.

We simply must improve our use of digital tools and systems to meet higher standards of safety and speed up progress towards net zero emissions. You also can’t make buildings safer if you keep working in the same broken way – and we all know there can be no construction, installation, or maintenance without safety. >>

“ AI is out of its box and is not going back in – so, like it or not, we must embrace it. We must be aware of the potential negatives but grasp the positives. Harnessing AI to some of the digital improvements we have already made like 4D modelling, APIs and data mining will make us more efficient and productive.

The digital takeover means we need completely new skills, but by the same token, it creates an amazing opportunity to reach out to a whole new generation and state our case for being their career of choice, so they can contribute to a better, greener future.

”

Without these improvements, building services firms will struggle to be profitable because increasingly tight profit margins are ramping up the pressure on all of us; and there is only a small pool of skilled people on offer, so we must operate effectively and efficiently.

Digitisation will unlock our potential to deliver net zero, even across the difficult retrofit and refurbishment areas of our industry – and will be essential if we are to harness the data we need to be able to inform and update technical standards and competency frameworks.

However, digitisation alone will not solve all our problems. We must also invest in people to ensure they have the right skills to work with new technologies and realise their full potential.

The digital takeover means we need completely new skills, but by the same token, it creates an amazing opportunity to reach out to a whole new generation and state our case for being their career of choice, so they can contribute to a better, greener future.

Rather than protesting and campaigning for environmental change, let’s encourage them to join an industry that can actually make change happen and is using the latest technologies to do it.

A big year for safety

The Building Safety Act picked up pace during 2023 and is now in full force with the office of the Building Safety Regulator (BSR) ramping up the pressure on the industry and building managers to make sure they comply.

T

his new office, which started work last April and is part of the Health & Safety Executive (HSE), continues to remind everyone that the new safety regime applies to ALL buildings but with additional requirements for Higher-Risk Buildings (HRBs) “from shed to Shard”.

Dame Judith Hackitt, who is widely regarded as the ‘creator’ of the legislation as it emerged from her report into the Grenfell Tower tragedy, has also been urging the industry to “Lead don’t lag” i.e. stop waiting for secondary legislation and get on with implementing the necessary changes to achieve compliance.

A senior HSE spokesperson also pointed out that the building engineering sector had little to fear because most should already be meeting many of the requirements of the new the legislation. He said many firms were intimidated by the depth and scope of the Act but that it largely ‘mirrors’ the CDM regulations which have been in place since 1995.

“These are mainly old measures in a new package, but with a new emphasis on being able to properly demonstrate what you should already be doing,” said Neil Hope-Collins, who has been an HM Inspector of Health & Safety for more than 20 years. “The duty holder roles are the same as in CDM,

12 | The BESA Book 2024

and the Golden Thread is not new information – it is what is ‘golden’ to you and what is needed to keep both the building and the people in it safe now and in the future”.

He conceded that the implications were “massive” because the Regulator would eventually impose a new safety culture on the whole of the built environment, but he did not envisage “a cliff edge” where the requirements would be enforced uniformly on every project. Rather there would be a gradual transition.

Stringent

The planning application process will be more stringent and more detailed design information will be required at an earlier stage, but Hope-Collins said this was designed to reduce problems later in the project by front-loading the investment of time and money, so it would ultimately make projects cheaper to deliver.

“There are some new things in the competence frameworks, but much of that is about being able to prove that people understand their role,” he added. “It also reflects the fact that in most cases responsibility lies with organisations…corporate bodies, so it is not just about training for skills. You must be able to demonstrate organisational competence.”

BESA BOOK 2024 INTRODUCTION

While there is a legal obligation on clients to ensure all works covered by the Building Regulations are properly planned, managed, and monitored, he also pointed out that contractors are required to refuse to start work until “they are satisfied the client is aware of its own duties”. He said it was important that building services firms felt empowered to call out poor practices and there would be measures in place to help them do that.

The Regulator is also keen to reassure that enforcement will be “proportionate, evidencebased and justified” and that it will be implemented using a multi-disciplinary approach. This means, in effect, there are THREE regulators including the New Homes Ombudsman and the National Regulator of Construction Products co-operating to provide the resources needed to drive enforcement.

BESA staff have been tracking developments since the start and working through the detail to pick out what is of direct relevance to its members. We are also making sure our products and services are aligned to help members achieve compliance.

However, BESA is also lobbying on behalf of the industry and asking for more clarity and consistency of interpretation as well as more information on ‘transitional arrangements’.

Many of BESA’s services can play a critical part in ensuring members have the tools they need to cope with the new building safety regime, including our technical and legal and commercial departments, the BESA Academy, SKILLcard, and several of our competence and compliance schemes, and the continually updated SFG20 which keeps building maintainers on top of the latest legislative requirements.

We are also able to act as a guide for members to the key requirements and actions – and have launched a special area of our website for that purpose.

The implications are different for Tier Ones from the rest of the sector, but the main point is that there are implications for all of us. For smaller contractors the focus is much more around specific areas of competence, fire safety and building regulation compliance, and being able to provide evidence of what work was done, by who and why certain decisions were made. You do not need to have a grasp of the full legislation.

All occupied higher-risk buildings (HRBs) are now required to have at least one clearly identifiable Accountable Person, who will be responsible for ensuring that fire and structural safety is being properly managed for the whole building.

A new Gateway Regime was introduced in October and introduces considerable new responsibilities at key planning stages.

What should you be doing now?

• Visit the BESA website and look at our ‘roadmap’ to compliance.

• Sign up for the BSR’s e-bulletins and follow them on social media as these channels regularly publish updates and links to further information.

• Look out for regular updates from BESA as we will act as a signposting service to keep members up-to-speed with the latest developments.

• Don’t be intimidated. Most BESA members are already doing many of the right things, but we all need to embrace a new way of providing evidence, from individual competence to a digital ‘Golden Thread’ and of reporting key decisions, particularly around changes to the original design. >>

BESA BOOK 2024 INTRODUCTION

This is not just cleaning…

Proving safety competence

BESA’s newly rebranded certification scheme BESA Vent Hygiene Register (VHR) reported a 78% increase in the number of works notified to the VHR digital database last year with the annual total passing 22,000 for the first time.

The dramatic increase was attributed to more clients, insurers and fire officers recognising the importance of these systems to the fire integrity of buildings.

For example, last year saw new SKILLcards produced for key safety professions including thousands of fire sprinkler, local exhaust ventilation (LEV) and commissioning professionals

by BESA’s Engineering Services SKILLcard.

One area of building safety which has witnessed significant progress and is set to accelerate even faster in 2024 is cleaning and maintenance of kitchen extract ventilation systems.

There is at least one serious fire in a UK commercial kitchen every day, and owners are becoming increasingly aware that by improving the maintenance of their grease extraction systems, ventilation and ductwork, they can minimise the risk of a fire spreading. As a result, thousands more systems are now being cleaned in compliance with the industry’s TR19® Grease Specification: ‘Fire risk Management of Grease Accumulation in Kitchen Extraction Systems’, according to VHR. Formerly known as the BESCA Ventilation Hygiene Elite scheme, VHR was rebranded to reflect the growing profile of the profession and to help it prepare for formal government regulation and as part of BESA’s campaign to promote ventilation hygiene as a key element of the wider building safety agenda.

VHR is intended to become the ventilation hygiene equivalent of the mandatory Gas Safe Register, which transformed the safety of gas installation work in the UK. It is recognised by the insurance fire risk body RISCAuthority, and by the London Fire Brigade which recently updated its guidance for catering premises to include new measures from TR19® Grease. www.venthygieneregister.com

VHR emphasises the importance of being able to provide evidence of qualifications and training and this will spread right across the sector as the new safety culture takes hold.

SKILLcard worked closely with the British Automatic Fire Sprinkler Association (BAFSA), the Institute of LEV Engineers (ILEVE) and the Commissioning Specialists Association (CSA) to provide updated qualifications to help operatives prove their professional and safety credentials in the face of increased scrutiny of all building work.

The new cards are part of the wider pan-industry Construction Skills Certification Scheme (CSCS) alliance used to provide evidence of professional competence and health & safety qualifications across a whole range of built environment professions. All cards carrying the CSCS logo must now only certify occupations with nationally recognised construction related qualifications such as NVQs or approved equivalents.

The new fire sprinkler cards include blue skilled worker cards for commercial engineers for which the applicant must hold the new ‘Inspection and Commissioning of Commercial Fire Sprinkler Systems’ qualification; and Fire Sprinkler Design/ Project Engineer (Domestic and Residential), which is a Black Manager card that can only be carried by someone who has completed the new ‘Domestic and Residential Fire Sprinkler Design SCQF’ qualification.

Proficiency

For LEV engineers, there are new blue skilled worker TExT Assessor and LEV Design Technician cards, for which the applicants must have P601 and P602 proficiency qualifications, together with relevant experience and obtain the ILEVE Licentiate card. An advanced gold craft card for LEV TExT assessors and commissioning engineers is another new addition for which the applicant must hold the BOHS CoC Control certificate and have obtained an ILEVE Associate card.

Commissioning specialists also have access to a whole raft of new cards including blue technician and engineer cards requiring CSA Grade 3 or Grade 4 qualifications; a CSA Senior Commissioning Engineer gold card for Grade 5 qualified advanced craft and supervisors; and black manager card for all Commissioning Manager grades. >>

Collaboration

SKILLcard said it was delighted to be able to provide the new cards thanks to the positive collaboration between BESA and the other three industry bodies. Head of certification Duncan Sibbald added that it was important for professional accreditations to be continually reviewed and, if necessary, updated to keep pace with the fast-changing building safety environment.

“Clients are more concerned than ever to have third-party verified evidence of an individual’s competence and ability to comply with safety legislation. These new cards will provide them with peace of mind and thousands of skilled engineers with the proof of competence they need to carry out their vital life safety work,” he said.

Engineering Services SKILLcard has been operating for 22 years and now provides over 50,000 building services engineers with the evidence of competence they need to access sites.

The scheme plays a crucial role in the government’s 2025 Construction Industry Strategy by helping clients check whether workers have the right qualifications for the job in hand as well as suitable health and safety training.

SKILLcard also covers those with supervisory and managerial responsibilities in the building engineering services industry and is also widely used by self-employed and agency workers and those seeking employment in the sector. Since its launch in 2001, the application and renewal process has been regularly updated and improved so that it is now fully digital.

For more information about engineering services SKILLcards and how to apply go to: www.skillcard.org.uk.

It will also be a big year for building maintenance – and SFG20 The team behind the industry’s maintenance standard SFG20 found that driving down the costs associated with operating and refurbishing buildings became a top priority for facilities managers last year in the face of soaring inflation and across the board cost rises.

Inflation pushed up equipment and material prices, a shortage of skilled people drove up wages, and energy prices had almost doubled at one point. As a result, some owners were tempted to take a chance with their maintenance programmes and reduce the frequency of key tasks in a bid to make short-term savings.

However, this meant they are caught up in a damaging and potentially expensive cycle of equipment failures and reduced operating efficiencies which simply drove up their costs again.

It also increased their chances of falling foul of safety legislation…see our earlier piece on the Building Safety Act for other salutary warnings.

“Ironically, the problem is exacerbated by the fact that many organisations work on a 100% maintenance approach when budgeting i.e., they calculate their costs based on maintaining all of their assets,” explained SFG20 product director Paul Bullard.

“However, by taking a more targeted approach using digital modelling tools, they can focus their precious resources on those systems that are critical to safety and the efficient operation of the building – and redirect funds away from less important assets, some of which could even be run to failure.

“Avoiding over or under-maintaining systems is the key to getting best value for money from a building maintenance programme while remain legally compliant,” said Bullard. “It is equally important to avoid the temptation to only do the bare minimum to save costs as this can lead to operationally critical assets being undermaintained. That increases the risk of failure, drives up energy costs and reduces their remaining useful life – it’s a vicious cycle.”

SFG20 says that many of its users find adopting this kind of ‘risk-based approach’ to maintenance supported by accurate, up-to-date digital asset registers can cut their overall costs by as much as 20% without compromising legal compliance or operating efficiency.

SFG20 Resource Modeller was developed for just this task and is designed to price the specific requirements of any building so FMs can find the most cost-efficient strategy.

16 | The BESA Book 2024

BESA BOOK 2024 INTRODUCTION

Colossal

“The complexity of estimating maintenance, particularly in large commercial new builds or refurb projects, has defeated many project teams,” said Bullard. “However, the financial and environmental impact can be colossal particularly as around 80% of the total cost of a building is accounted for during its operational life.”

He said that key factors to consider include the quality of the building design, its location, the materials used, services installed, and size. However, in many cases the specific characteristics of the building are ignored, and the maintenance strategy is simply based on the total floor area.

A webinar developed by SFG20 and still available to watch online at www.sfg20.co.uk offers 10 top tips for driving down operating costs in line with a risk-based philosophy. It outlines the areas where costs are rising, and the problems caused by ‘sub-optimal’ maintenance regimes before setting out a strategy that helps to reduce maintenance costs while still ensuring the building remains fit for purpose.

It includes tactics for maximising internal resources, making more cost-effective choices in the use of external expertise and mitigating risk.

“Targeted maintenance already had a clear financial payback by keeping systems operating at peak efficiency and reducing expensive breakdowns,” said Bullard. “With costs rising all around us, that approach can now deliver even better value for money as it keeps FMs on top of areas of real financial concern, like energy consumption and equipment downtime, and prevents teams from carrying out unnecessary work.” www.sfg20.co.uk

Heat networks in the spotlight

Last year BESA unveiled a new UK test regime for Heat Interface Units (HIUs), which replaced the original standard developed in 2016 and first revised in 2018.

BESA’s UK HIU Test Regime was considerably expanded and enhanced to improve the information available to specifiers and to ensure a better experience for end users.

It was designed with consumer protection in mind and to ensure the market meets the needs of those developing and designing heat networks, which are regarded as key to the UK’s plans for decarbonising its heating.

More than 50,000 HIUs are installed each year in the UK, and they are playing a growing part in the country’s overall decarbonisation strategy. This makes setting performance standards increasingly important to the industry and consumers.

HIUs extract heat from district heating networks to feed individual buildings and dwellings and the way they perform is central to the overall efficiency of the system.

The BESA Standard originally emerged from an efficiency research project supported by the UK government to try and improve the performance of a technology seen as central to the decarbonisation of the country’s heating.

The test regime is a voluntary process that gives manufacturers an independent method for testing, assessing, and comparing the performance of products.

It has already been successful in improving HIU performance across the sector by providing specifiers with the necessary information to make informed decisions about which HIUs to select for their projects. >>

BESA BOOK 2024 INTRODUCTION

The regime is run as a not-for-profit project by BESA and all the income from testing is invested back into the future development of the scheme.

Any manufacturer who decides to publish their test results on the Register database can claim that they are ‘BESA registered’ and can use the Association’s logo.

“Ultimately, it will be consumers who benefit from this updated process and the improved performance of heat networks,” said HIU Steering Group chair Gareth Jones. “Manufacturers will use the test outputs to carry out more research and refine their products, and specifiers will be helped to make increasingly better-informed choices.”

Visit www.thebesa.com/hiu/ downloads for more information about the revised HIU Test Standard.

The BESA HIU Steering Group, which is made up of representatives from all sides of the testing process, oversees the testing. It engages with stakeholders right across the sector from developers, specifiers, and purchasers, through to manufacturers, installers/suppliers and ultimately, the customer.

Modular

This third edition of the HIU standard includes some significant improvements and has been expanded and restructured into a modular approach that allows for the testing of additional types of HIU including space heating only models. It also introduces a DHW load test and changes to the way the annual volume weighted return temperature (VWART) is calculated.

It now covers seven different types of HIU and has pass/fail thresholds leading to registration of a successful test. The new modular nature of the tests is designed to minimise the amount of re-testing but maximises the information provided to specifiers.

Testing to the standard allows the performance of different HIUs to be evaluated in typical UK operating conditions and provides evidence of compliance with other performance and reliability metrics, such as domestic hot water response times.

The result is verified by a BESA technical consultant before being published on the BESA HIU Test Register. The information is then available to help specifiers make informed decisions about the type of HIUs to select for their projects.

No let up in the push for better indoor air quality

BESA’s long-running campaign to turn buildings into ‘safe havens’ from pollution also received a major boost last year with the creation of the first British Standard for health and well-being in buildings.

BS40102 (part one) gives recommendations for measuring, monitoring, and reporting indoor environmental quality (IEQ) in all types of non-domestic buildings. It includes an evaluation and rating system for air quality, lighting, thermal comfort, and acoustics.

The evaluation provides building managers with a benchmark score to help them identify areas of below par performance so they can plan improvements and include IEQ measures in any retrofit and renovation work.

Swansea-based environmental and building services firm, EFT Consult, played a key role in the creation of the standard as it laid the groundwork through its development of a publicly available specification (PAS 3003) prompted by the 2015 Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act.

Fast track

EFT, which is a member of BESA’s Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) group, was developing the PAS with the British Standards Institute when the Covid-19 pandemic struck highlighting the role played by poor quality indoor environments in the spread of viruses and other airborne contaminants. >>

BESA BOOK 2024 INTRODUCTION

As a result, BSi decided to fast track and elevate the PAS to a full British Standard.

The standard was also partly inspired by widespread realisation that building retrofit work carried out to improve energy efficiency had, in many cases, led to poorer quality ventilation.

To meet the new standard organisations will need to tackle conditions that have a direct impact on human health including humidity, and excessive levels of CO2, CO, NO2, volatile organic compounds (VOC), airborne particulates and mould.

Several members of the BESA IAQ Group were invited to provide input into the standard and stressed the importance of following the latest World Health Organization (WHO) guidance on air quality. This was updated in 2021 to reflect the findings of five years’ extensive research which revealed that particulate matter (PM) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) harmed human health “at even lower concentrations than previously understood”.

As a result, the WHO advised its 194 member countries to consider air pollution to be as big a threat to human health and well-being as climate change and adjusted almost all its previous maximum target levels for airborne pollutants downwards.

It linked long-term exposure to even relatively low concentrations of ambient and household air pollution to lung cancer, heart disease, and strokes – putting the health impact of pollution on a par with poor diet and smoking.

“This new British Standard is an important step forward in our ongoing battle to get the government and building owners to focus more attention and investment on the indoor environment,” said BESA IAQ Group chair Nathan Wood.

“Setting IEQ performance benchmarks will make it easier for facilities managers to target problem areas and demonstrate how conditions directly affect health and productivity. However, we must continue to keep pushing standards upwards as current government targets do not reflect the latest WHO guidance and lack real ambition.

“In time, we also hope to see the BS being tightened up to include the more stringent 2021 WHO guidelines so that we can start making real inroads into the IAQ problems that threaten the health of building occupants up and down the country.”

Academy helps to raise IAQ awareness

Our work in this area was further enhanced with the launch of a ‘basic awareness’ training course for indoor air quality (IAQ).

It was developed by the Association’s online training Academy and based on the IAQ Group’s guides.

The training provides a useful introduction for anyone interested in the subject including those with some working knowledge of building services but who need to have a deeper understanding of IAQ. It is also suitable for people from a non-technical background keen to expand their knowledge so they can make better informed decisions about their indoor environments.

This short online course explains the importance of IAQ, the main airborne contaminants that affect buildings, their sources, and the impact on the indoor environment caused by outdoor pollution.

It is not designed to lead to a technical qualification but will help anyone who needs to put together an IAQ strategy for their building and be more aware of the threats to health, well-being and productivity posed by poor air quality.

It should also equip them with enough knowledge of the topic to be able to ask informed questions, establish the kind of technical intervention required, and appoint IAQ/ventilation specialists to carry out improvement or remedial work.

A survey carried out by BESA affiliate member Zehnder Group found that 83% of UK residents wanted to know more about the air quality inside their homes, but while a sixth said they worried about outdoor pollution just one in ten had the same level of concern about the indoor threat. >>

BESA BOOK 2024 INTRODUCTION

Adam Taylor, vice chair of BESA’s Indoor Air Quality group, urged the government to mount a public awareness campaign similar to those that featured celebrities highlighting the risks posed by car crashes and household fires, which account for fewer deaths than pollution.

“The annual mortality of human-made air pollution in the UK is roughly equivalent to between 28,000 and 36,000 deaths every year,” he said. “Globally, household air pollution was responsible for an estimated 3.2 million deaths per year in 2020.”

Taylor said lack of public awareness was at least partially due to the way that IAQ information is presented. “We gather lots of data but that has to be translated into actionable insights.”

The BESA awareness course provides a series of practical measures that building owners and operators can take to address IAQ concerns including measuring and monitoring airborne contaminants, checking and improving ventilation systems, and understanding the role of filtration and regular maintenance of air systems.

Convenience

It takes around 45 minutes to complete the course online and it can be undertaken in a series of manageable ‘bite sized’ chunks at the user’s convenience from home or work.

It costs £15 plus VAT for BESA members and £25 plus VAT for non-members.

BESA intends the training to support its messages to contractors, developers, designers, manufacturers, builders, occupiers, and maintenance engineers about how they

can act positively on buildings and their systems to improve occupant comfort, health, and well-being – and also strengthen their businesses in the process.

The Association also wants to step up pressure on the government to be more ambitious in its target setting for reducing air pollution, which currently lags behind the latest WHO Air Quality Guidelines (September 2021). For example: the Environment Act 2021 in secondary legislation sets a concentration target for fine particulate matter (PM2.5) of 10 µg/m3 by 2040 against a WHO target of 5 µg/m3.

“Everyone in building engineering services should have a basic grounding in air quality solutions and be able to explain how poor IAQ affects human health and well-being and the costs of not addressing it properly,” said BESA’s IAQ Group chair Nathan Wood.

“There is huge demand for this kind of introductory training from right across society because everyone is impacted.

90% of people spend at least 90% of their time indoors – and it is so important that we spread the word and improve understanding of this major threat to public health, which directly affects respiratory and heart conditions, asthma, and mental health.

“The more people know and understand why and how IAQ affects health and comfort, the greater will be the pressure on government to legislate properly and in line with the latest worldwide data,” said Wood.

Big push for low carbon skills this year The BESA Academy (theBESA.com/besaacademy) is also playing a major role in the campaign to increase the number of people with the necessary ‘green skills’ needed to deliver the UK’s net zero targets.

It runs several relevant courses and has been successful in raising financial support to provide fully funded courses for heat pump installation and heat networks. However, it believes we will need to see a much greater injection of funding and planning into addressing an overall skills shortage which is preventing the refurbishment and retrofitting of buildings in line with the government’s carbon reduction targets.

A study by the recruitment firm Reed Environment (reed.co.uk) last year estimated that current rates of recruitment for professions carrying out building retrofit work would have to triple if the country was to meet its 2050 target.

BESA BOOK 2024 INTRODUCTION

“

The BESA Academy is also playing a major role in the campaign to increase the number of people with the necessary ‘green skills’ needed to deliver the UK’s net zero targets.

”

It concluded that the UK is currently on track to miss the required number of building energy efficiency upgrades by 55 years – only reaching it in 2105 – due to “a serious shortage of retrofit training and recruitment pathways”.

BESA continues to point out that building retrofits should be “a main policy and business pillar of Net Zero”, but that the country was falling behind its targets due to the lack of a comprehensive plan for how the 2050 target could be delivered.

“Retrofitting homes and commercial buildings needs to be a main building block of Net Zero,” said the Association’s director of training and skills Helen Yeulet. “This requires a serious acceleration in recruitment of the necessary skills, which will also underpin business growth and job creation in the sector.”

Lagging

The UK is also lagging comparable European countries when it comes to retrofit work, according to research from the MCS Charitable Foundation (www.mcscharitablefoundation.org), which revealed it was installing less than a tenth of the number of heat pumps as France despite having a similar heating market.

Only 55,000 heat pumps were sold in the UK in 2022, compared with 621,000 in France. 20 other European countries also had higher installation rates than the UK, which is being held back by the lack of a comprehensive and consistent plan for ‘green skills’, according to BESA.

www.theBESA.com

@BESAGroup

BESA Group

The MCS report said that there was currently “little chance” of the UK meeting the government’s target of 600,000 heat pump installations a year by 2028. However, with a proper skills strategy it should be possible to create 50,000 new jobs in this market, up from just 2,000 today.

BESA welcomed the launch of the government’s £5m Heat Training Grant which offers £500 towards heat pump training for self-employed installers, the unemployed and those working for a business with 250 employees or less. It is expected to help upskill around 6,000 heating engineers, but the Association said it was important that the government made long-term policy commitments and abandoned its ‘stop-start’ approach to funding.

“Employers need to have the confidence to invest in their workforces and diversify their businesses,” said Yeulet. “We need to take a leaf out of France’s book.”

She also called for the government to give a clear commitment to the Future Homes and Building Standard, which is due to come into force in 2025 and would set energy efficiency benchmarks that could drive retrofit work.

France has benefited from energy efficiency and electrification of heat being political priorities for more than a decade underpinned by generous financial incentives. The installation market grew from 100,000 a year in 2010 to over 600,000 last year and France now has more than 30,000 people employed full time in heat pumps. >>

It was one of the organisations to benefit from the £9.2m of funding provided by the DESNZ following its Home Decarbonisation Skills Training competition and our share means we can deliver more fully funded training for qualified plumbing, heating, refrigeration, and air conditioning engineers looking to upskill. We can also help more businesses develop their technical competence to be guided through the MCS-accreditation process.

Last year saw the launch of a training course developed in partnership with MCS and BESA affiliate member Worcester Bosch, which provided fully funded places on the MCS-certified Air Source Heat Pump Installer course.

The course blends practical training and online learning, and students are given the skills to correctly specify and install low temperature heating systems, accurately size components, commission, and handover systems properly, as well as carrying out lifecycle maintenance.

“There is no mystery about why other countries are doing better than us,” said Yeulet. “They have clear policy commitments and long-term, properly funded training programmes in place that give employers the confidence to invest and grow their businesses.

“We have been talking about this for years, but this is not just about government. We all need to step up and do what we promise by investing in our workforces. Not just because it is the right thing to do for the planet, but also because the potential for business growth is huge.”

The Academy believes that heat pumps can go on to become the ‘heart’ of the national programme of whole building retrofits needed to achieve the UK’s decarbonisation goals, but to do so they must be part of a holistic approach delivered by a ‘new profession’ of low carbon installers capable of making multiple changes to buildings.

It’s not so much the number of heat pumps fitted but what that means for wider energy and carbon goals.

Improving access to grants for homeowners will be key, but it is important not to lose sight of the fact that the best way to ensure heat pumps achieve their full energy and carbon saving potential is by making them part of a whole building strategy. That must include considering whether the insulation should be improved and reviewing the whole system including sizing the heat emitters.

BESA has adapted its training to support this concept of a new type of low carbon installer with a ‘hybrid’ combined online and hands-on practical approach that addresses the overall performance of the installation.

www.theBESA.com

@BESAGroup

BESA Group

It includes a one-day practical element as well as five hours of online theory which can be completed in ‘bite size chunks’ at the convenience of the student.

The one day practical and final assessment will take place at one of BESA’s approved training centres. On completing the training, students will be able to correctly specify and install low temperature heating systems, accurately size components, commission, and handover systems properly, as well as carrying out lifecycle maintenance.

The government has also increased its funding support for Further Education colleges and to help local training providers afford the equipment and skilled trainers needed to deliver courses leading to MCS certification. This will help BESA create a significant training legacy as more training centres will be able to support a new generation of engineers with the necessary skills to retrofit homes and commercial buildings. They can then go on training up future generations for the long-term benefit of building engineering businesses and the consumer.

“We are facing a race against time to keep the decarbonisation of UK heat on track by rapidly scaling up our training provision,” said Yeulet. “But this is also a no brainer for domestic heating businesses wondering how to address a long-term future without gas boilers.

“They can future proof their businesses while helping end users reduce their energy bills and contributing to our long-term battle against climate change. They will also inspire a whole new generation of heating installers with more modern skills leading to truly rewarding careers, but this does mean they must be prepared to invest in the development of their workforces themselves. This can’t just be about government funding.” >>

BESA BOOK 2024 INTRODUCTION

And for cooling skills…

The Refrigeration and Air Conditioning sectors will also have to step up efforts to recruit and train a new generation of engineers able to deliver more innovative, future-proof solutions – and that work needs to accelerate this year.

Air conditioning is responsible for almost 20% of the total electricity used in buildings globally, according to the International Energy Agency (www.iea.org) and demand is predicted to keep rising steeply during the next three decades.

More can be done to raise awareness of how the modern cooling industry is adapting and evolving to meet the challenges and opportunities of increasing demand for low carbon cooling and heating solutions in warming climates.

“We will have to manage a huge balancing act over the next 20 to 30 years,” said BESA technical director Graeme Fox, who is also President of the Institute of Refrigeration (ior.org.uk).

“Our world is warming and driving demand for cooling technologies, but at the same time we simply must reduce our energy consumption.

“Fortunately, our industry has a great track record of innovation so most of the solutions we need are coming through and evolving rapidly to meet these challenges.

However, we are short of the numbers of highly skilled engineers we need to design, install, and operate systems at the necessary scale.”

He added that BESA would continue to celebrate the vital role played by refrigeration technology in modern society including healthcare, the food chain, buildings, data centres and transport.

“If someone is looking for a career where they can make a significant and long-lasting contribution to the future of the planet and their local communities, air conditioning and refrigeration ticks all the boxes,” said Fox. He was also heavily involved in a campaign that is expected to save thousands of lives around the world and which was finally launched in 2023.

The United Nations Refrigerant Driving Licence (RDL) scheme has been set up to improve worldwide safety standards in the air conditioning and refrigeration industries.

More than a decade in the making, the scheme was launched by the UN Environment Programme (unep.org).

It seeks to help developing nations achieve higher competence standards in safe refrigerant handling through training and accreditation of operatives.

The UK’s primary refrigerant management registration scheme REFCOM (refcom.org.uk), which is operated by BESA, said the timing was significant because of the rapid growth in the use of new ‘alternative’ refrigerant gases.

www.theBESA.com

@BESAGroup

BESA Group

These are designed to replace traditional global warming equivalents but are often more flammable so require users to have more stringent safety training.

Fox was one of the founders of the RDL scheme and hailed its launch as a “significant development for the worldwide refrigerant industry that will save many lives”.

“A lot of countries do not enjoy the training and technical infrastructure we take for granted in Europe and the rest of the developed world,” he said. “Many of those countries still want to progress and adopt more environmentally friendly refrigerants. However, the speed of the transition to new gases is causing some very serious safety issues and there have already been several deaths caused by the mishandling of these substances.”

Flammable

The European Union was considering a further strengthening of its F-Gas regulations, which would lead to an even faster pace of change away from higher global warming potential (GWP) gases to flammable alternatives. Changes in large developed markets are quickly reflected in other parts of the world as manufacturers adapt their production strategies.

The African industry is concerned that it is being used as a ‘guinea pig’ to test refrigerant transition, and the U-3ARC, which represents companies in all 54 African states, called for a halt to their introduction until technicians were properly trained.

“This preliminary training must be accompanied by a vast awareness campaign among end users of these technologies which can cause disasters for humans, in terms of fires, even if they are beneficial for the environment,” the organisation said in an open letter.

It said the risks were “enormous” and that “the protection of the environment only makes sense if the human being, who is at its centre, benefits from it”.

Fox said this showed how important the RDL scheme would be and urged the industry to share its expertise and resources to upskill the global workforce. He also asked regulators to be patient as efforts were stepped up to raise standards.

“European legislators deserve praise for seeking to set the pace on reducing global warming, but changes need to be proportionate and practical,” he said. “We must be mindful that one of the consequences of limiting the use of conventional refrigerants is that many developing nations with minimal expertise end up handling large amounts of flammable gas.

“The RDL will, given time, immeasurably improve professional standards worldwide and allow for the gradual and safe adoption of more environmentally benign substances.” www.theBESA.com n

However, net zero strategies for the UK must also address improvements at the macro level, exploiting the enormous potential for carbon reduction and waste energy use at a heat network level, through district energy schemes and sector coupling.

Around 40% of our building energy requirements could be met from waste energy. This could be from data-centre cooling, industrial processes, power generation, or waste water. Sector coupling has enormous potential in this regard. It links energy streams and allows energy to be stored in various forms to match changing demands and outputs during a typical 24-hour period.

Sector coupling splits energy supply into 4 key power grids: electricity, gas (this can be a mix of natural, hydrogen, biogas etc.), district cooling and district heating.

These four networks are divided into four areas where the energy is obtained, stored, converted or used.

28 | The BESA Book 2024

LA

FA

RM

The source and use are straightforward. The storage and conversion, however, are the two key areas that create flexibility and allow energy to flow across the four different power grids.

The four grids and the four stages are connected. Even end users can be consumers or prosumers, taking or giving energy into the system. Sector coupling can be thought of as a spider’s web with energy travelling in all directions across every strand.

If support for sector coupling in particular, and district energy in general, is to be gained, then serious consideration must be given to maximising the efficiency of existing networks. This will ensure the potential carbon reduction gains are realised, and provide data for future schemes.

Low flow temperatures, very low return temperatures and wide delta T’s are key to district energy efficiency and essential to the maximising renewable energy use. District energy is energy source and technology agnostic, so multiple renewable and non-renewable energy sources can be integrated into the LTHW system.

District energy treats waste heat from processes as another energy source for the network. The use of multiple sources can be phased, based on grid demand, their availability, and/ or the carbon intensity of each source at any given time.

THE DRIVE FOR NET ZERO HVAC

different heat pump refrigerant can be used to lift the 55˚C higher if required by the buildings served.

The key to optimising multiple energy sources, given their different operational criteria, is the effective integration of thermal stores, be that on the network or inside/outside of the plant room/energy centre. The thermal store should not just be thought of as a simple store of energy, but also as a window on the relationship between energy output and energy demand on the network.

It is crucial to size the thermal store correctly.

It needs to be large enough to allow energy sources to ‘run on’ after the demand has dropped. While it is crucial not to undersize the thermal store, oversizing the thermal store has few downsides and therefore an ‘if in doubt, go larger approach’ is recommended.

Moreover, certain energy sources, heat pumps, for example, can benefit from an increased thermal store size.

In a district heating network, the peak demand period is extremely short, so it does not make sense to use the peak demand to calculate the energy source size. The energy sources can be sized below the peak and the thermal store used to bridge the difference.

It is imperative that the thermal store is hydraulically connected so that it can augment the source output, thereby increasing total output to meet the peak. Once the peak is over, the thermal store can be replenished by the energy sources during the lower demand times.

To do this optimally, the thermal store needs to be connected in a ‘two pipe’ arrangement (see Figure 1). One pipe runs into the top of the store, from the flow and one into the bottom of the store, from the return. The pipework connecting the thermal store is therefore bi-directional. >>

Figure 1: thermal store hydraulic connections (single and double stores).

Heat energy can also be used by an absorption heat pump, for example, to create chilled water for a district cooling network.

In this way, all that is required is a temperature differential and heating or cooling can be utilised.

Should wind energy be abundant, then the electricity can be used to run heat pumps or perhaps electric boilers. For district heating, air source heat pumps may raise the flow temperature to say 55˚C as an example, and then another technology, or

water in the vessel is being used, then the waste energy and possibly the LZC sources should be utilised. The stratification layer continues to be monitored and if it nears the top of the vessel, then the more carbonintensive sources can then be switched on.

Figure 2: Thermal storage, energy ‘give and take’ during a 24 hour period.

The flow can ‘fill’ the store (hot), or the return (cool) can ‘fill’ the store. This method creates stratification within the store.

Control is such that there is no circulation through the store, safeguarding the operating delta T and ensuring that the amount of energy for the given volume is maximised. There will be a small area in the store where mixing will occur, called the stratification layer, but the goal is to prohibit mixing and ensure the wide delta T of the network is maintained in the vessel. It is therefore common to see thermal stores with antimixing baffles and diffusion connections in the store.

Another reason for maintaining a clear stratification layer within the store is that once achieved, this layer can be used to control the connected energy sources. The thermal store should be equipped with multiple temperature sensing points down the side of the vessel, five probably being the minimum for a single vessel.

The readings from these temperature points can be used to control the energy sources. As an example, if the stratification layer is detected by the temperature points to be in the middle of the vessel and its direction of travel is downward, it can be surmised that the demand in the building is less than the output of the currently operating energy source(s). In other words, the thermal store is ‘filling’ with hot water. At this point, any connected carbon-intensive energy sources that are running should be switched off and only renewable, LZC or waste energy source utilised. If the stratification layer continues to travel down the vessel, then the waste energy sources should continue to operate until the stratification layer reaches the bottom of the vessel. At this point, all the energy sources should be switched off.

Once the stratification layer starts to rise in the vessel i.e., the demand is now greater than the supply and the hot

This ‘control by stratification’ is applicable to any number or variety of energy sources. However, we would recommend heat pumps have their run-time maximised wherever possible.

Therefore, it is best to have as many heat pumps running for as long as possible, rather than cascading them. Only if the stratification layer has reached the bottom temperature point would all the heat pumps be switched off and only when the top temperature point is reached, should the heat pumps be switched on.

Figure 2 shows how a thermal store is utilised and then ‘refilled’ during the rising and falling demands of a typical day.

Connecting a thermal store(s) and controlling in this manner, while ensuring that flow never circulates through the store and around the energy sources ensures that the energy sources can be utilised fully and that they are not compromised by a high return temperature. n

Revolutionising energy efficiency for a greener future As the urgency to combat climate change grows, transforming buildings into energy-efficient structures has become a top priority. Gareth Ash, Marketing Communications Manager at Danfoss, outlines some sustainable solutions.

In addition, building management systems are essential for reducing energy usage. For example, demand response involves adjusting energy usage in response to grid conditions and price signals. By using smart HVAC systems and building automation technologies, it’s possible to enable dynamic demandresponse capabilities. These systems can intelligently shift energy consumption to off-peak hours or reduce energy usage during periods of high demand, contributing to grid stability and optimising energy efficiency.

At Danfoss, we view smart HVAC systems as the future for more energy efficient and sustainable buildings. These systems are beginning to revolutionise building management by leveraging advanced technologies to enhance comfort, increase energy efficiency, and improve overall occupant well-being. he International Energy Agency (IEA) has set ambitious targets for the built environment, stating that nearly 85% of buildings worldwide must be zero-carbon-ready by 2050, with all new constructions achieving this status by 20301.

To achieve goals like this, we must adopt technologies that deliver energy savings and carbon emission reductions across as many buildings as possible. For example, district energy schemes involve the centralised generation and distribution of heating, cooling, and hot water to multiple buildings.

Smart HVAC systems use intelligent algorithms and machine learning to automate processes and adapt to changing conditions. They optimise heating, cooling, and ventilation operations based on occupancy patterns, outdoor weather conditions, and indoor air quality, ensuring optimal comfort levels while minimising energy waste.

Energy optimisation is also easier to achieve with smart systems. They can leverage data analytics, predictive algorithms, and advanced control strategies to maximise energy efficiency and reduce consumption.

Advanced technologies and controls within district energy systems promote efficient heat transfer, waste heat recovery, and thermal energy storage. These measures contribute to energy savings and reduced greenhouse gas emissions, making district energy an integral part of the sustainable building ecosystem.

These systems gather and analyse data such as temperature readings, occupancy patterns, and energy consumption metrics to make accurate predictions and informed decisions. By dynamically adjusting temperature setpoints, airflow rates, and equipment schedules, smart HVAC systems optimise energy usage while maintaining occupant comfort.

Connecting various energy systems, such as heating, cooling, and electricity, through intelligent controls and technologies is also possible. This is known as sector coupling, and it enables the efficient use of renewable energy sources within the scheme, enhancing system flexibility and reducing the use of energy from the grid.

They proactively anticipate heating and cooling requirements based on factors like weather conditions and occupancy levels, preventing energy waste. Additionally, these systems integrate renewable energy sources like solar panels or heat pumps, reducing reliance on fossil fuels and lowering carbon footprints.

WELL-BEING HEALTH & SAFETY

Beyond compliance Linaker’s Technical Team explains why it’s vital for BESA members to commit to safety in the evolving building engineering services landscape.

I

n any successful building engineering service, safety is a bedrock principle.

It creates an environment where tasks can be executed securely by continuously focusing on reducing risk and preventing accidents.

As we navigate the intricacies of building safety, two crucial components come to light: Safe systems of work and risk assessments.

These two factors are often overlooked in our complex everyday operations, but their significance cannot be understated.

The introduction of the Health and Safety at Work Act of 1974 was a pivotal moment for occupational safety in the UK. Even though decades have passed since its enactment, the Act’s principles continue to shape safety standards across diverse work environments, including the building engineering services sector. This unwavering mission to ensure a safe and healthy working environment underscores the timeless importance of the Act. It set down the responsibilities of employers and employees alike. Employers are tasked with providing safe systems of work. At the same time, employees must adhere to these systems and engage actively in risk assessments. However, despite the Act’s lasting influence, it must be supplemented with contemporary safety protocols and methodologies to maintain optimal safety standards.

In an industry as dynamic as building engineering services, the regulatory landscape continually evolves, which can be challenging to navigate. At Linaker, our mission is to foster an industry that is successful and safe for all involved. As the industry morphs and new best practices emerge, staying abreast of changes and advancements is vital.

We think that it’s vital for our industry to put health and safety at the core of our work. Thirty years ago, our chairman, Bill Harrison, instilled a set of values and principles into the fabric of Linaker. These weren’t just corporate guidelines but a moral compass that has guided us ever since. While some

organisations may strictly adhere to the letter of the law, we at Linaker choose to go a step further. Safety, for us, is more than a regulatory requirement. We firmly believe in doing what is required and what is right - even when it surpasses conventional expectations.

It’s important also to use the modern tools that are available to us to support good health and safety practices. Digital technology has a transformative potential, particularly in the realm of risk assessments.

For example, Linaker has invested in an automated platform that has converted a traditionally labour-intensive process into a streamlined, efficient system. This digital shift has conserved valuable time and resources and significantly enhanced the accuracy and comprehensiveness of our risk assessments.

Digital tools provide real-time insights with unprecedented precision, enabling a proactive approach to implementing control measures to mitigate potential hazards. By leveraging the exhaustive risk libraries on a digital platform it’s possible to reduce the time spent identifying potential risks while ensuring a meticulous evaluation of all potential hazards.

To make the principles of the Health and Safety at Work Act adaptable and responsive to the contemporary demands of the building engineering services sector, it is crucial to adopt a proactive and participatory approach. >>

“

As we navigate the intricacies of building safety, two crucial components come to light: Safe systems of work and risk assessments. These two factors are often overlooked in our complex everyday operations, but their significance cannot be understated. .

”

Regular safety system reviews, ongoing dialogue between employers and employees, and a culture of continuous learning and feedback are paramount.

It’s not only digital tools that can help. Sometimes, a face-toface approach is a powerful solution. For example, Linaker holds monthly Health and Safety workshops. These meetings encourage open discussion about safety concerns and serve as a platform for raising health and safety-related queries.

They are attended by our UK Health and Safety Manager and various members of our leadership team, ensuring a diverse range of viewpoints and experiences. This approach not only fosters an environment of inclusivity and transparency but also enables a swift and efficient resolution of any safety concerns.

Enacted into law on the 1st of April 2023, the Building Safety Bill stands as another significant milestone in the UK’s construction and property management sectors. This legislation, a response to the tragic Grenfell Tower fire of 2017, is designed to bolster the safety and security of buildings, with a particular emphasis on high-rise residential structures.

The Bill ushers in a robust and stringent regulatory framework for building safety, marking a new era in the industry. Central to this framework is the establishment of the Building Safety Regulator (BSR), a role to be fulfilled by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE). The BSR will be the linchpin in the enforcement and implementation of the new safety regulations, with a comprehensive remit that aims to significantly elevate safety standards across the construction and property management sectors.

The BSR’s responsibilities are multifaceted. Primarily, it will oversee the safety and standards of all buildings, ensuring adherence to the new, more rigorous regulations. Additionally, it will strive to enhance the competence of professionals in the built environment industry and building control, offering guidance and support to help them meet the new standards.

While the Building Safety Bill represents a significant step forward, it also brings with it a set of challenges. The new regulations necessitate substantial changes in the operations of the construction and property management sectors. Implementing the new safety measures will entail costs, raising concerns about who will bear the financial burden.

Nevertheless, the Bill’s overarching aim is clear: to prevent a recurrence of tragedies like the Grenfell Tower fire. It sends a resounding message from the government that the safety of residents is of paramount importance. The Bill signifies a profound shift in the building industry’s culture, prioritising safety above all else.

The obligation to establish and maintain safe systems of work that are carefully planned, organised, performed, and revised as necessary is pivotal to maintaining high levels of safety and health at work. It’s also critical to ensure that people in your business understand these requirements, and training for personnel can provide a valuable in-house resource.

For example, our in-house authorising engineers, the torchbearers of our safety standards, enforce stringent assessments and continuous supervision to ensure these standards are upheld consistently.

By managing and mitigating risks effectively within our operations, BESA members can uphold the principles of the Health and Safety at Work Act while simultaneously Technical Team adapting to the evolving Linaker challenges of the modern www.linaker.com building engineering services sector. n

Artificial intelligence – your new ‘almost human’ engineer Love it or loathe it, Artificial intelligence (AI) technology already plays a part in our lives and industry, but we still have work to do if we are to fully harness its potential for improving indoor environments, says Josh Emerson, Marketing and Sales Development Director of Swegon UK.

A

I is described as the process that allows a computer to act and respond, “almost as if it were a human”. That ‘almost’ is important because the ideal scenario is that machine learning does not replace humans but supports them, making them more efficient and productive.

AI tools feed on data and then learn to identify patterns to help them make predictions, solve problems, and learn from their own mistakes. They also need algorithms, which are the ‘rules’ by which they are governed and must be followed in the right order to complete a task.

Those algorithms are embedded in our daily lives and AI is creating astonishing possibilities because of the speed with which it analyses and uses information. Of course, with any such development, there is bound to be concern and negativity – that’s natural – and the wider construction industry is in a bit of a quandary.

40 | The BESA Book 2024

Just under half of 950 industry managers surveyed by the recruitment specialist Hays thought AI should be embraced, but 42% were not so sure and the other 11% were positively alarmed at the prospect.

Many acknowledged that AI tools like Jasper and ChatGPT could deliver cost savings (41%) and improve productivity (28%) but only 15% of construction and property firms told Hays they were allowing staff to use AI tools unmonitored and nearly a quarter (22%) said they would ban them on security grounds.

This shows we still have work to do to fully embed digital thinking into our supply chains, even though we have made major strides in recent times. For example, digital twins (virtual models of buildings – existing or planned) are now being more widely used to inform design and retrofitting decisions.

WELL-BEING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

Many are now being enhanced by AI-driven analysis allowing engineers to rapidly test a series of theoretical scenarios in the virtual world before adjusting or retrofitting anything in reality. This reduces risk, cuts upfront costs, and makes for far better outcomes for the end client by giving engineers the freedom to test and fail before settling on the right solution.

For retrofit projects, a building’s current energy performance can be closely analysed via thousands of data points, allowing managers to identify the highest sources of energy consumption and consider a wide range of options for improving performance. HVAC and lighting are responsible for upwards of 50% of energy use in a typical commercial building – so this is significant.

Upgrades and improvements can be tested before implementation via the digital twin. For example, new windows, upgrades to the HVAC system, improved insulation, or scope for renewable energy generation, such as solar panels can be assessed before implementation.

Harnessing these digital advances to AI technology means analysis can be carried out at blistering speeds and multiple variations can be tested. AI also allows

HVAC controls to ‘learn’ about changes in usage or to the local weather etc. so systems can automatically recalibrate without the need for human intervention.

The Capgemini Research Institute1 estimates that this kind of development means AI could reduce global greenhouse gas emissions by 16% by 2030 and help organisations and governments work towards their net zero goals.

Evidence of progress in our sector is all around with the launch of multiple AI tools aimed directly at our market. Some work with BIM models to extract product information, generate 2D images and link other data sources, for example. Others read and ‘understand’ contracts and documents, from tender requests to subcontract agreements and make intelligent comparisons and risk analyses to help contractors make crucial financial decisions.

At Swegon, our response to this digital transformation of building services is to embrace it and we have developed our innovative INSIDE system which can be used to view, monitor, and provide in-depth analysis of the performance of multiple compatible HVAC units in a single building or throughout a property portfolio.

This is an example of how rapid advances in data analytics can support the building services industry’s ambition for improving the built environment – and as AI becomes embedded into more processes that approach will only get faster and more accurate. >>

WELL-BEING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

However, many firms still don’t believe they have the right skills to exploit AI and the industry remains comparatively immature when it comes to adopting digital techniques.

Even where building operators collect data, not enough time is spent analysing it and using it to support decisionmaking and building management strategies.

This means we are missing out on huge potential performance improvements in existing buildings, which is where we must focus if we are to get anywhere close to our net zero goals.

BESA President Claire Curran alluded to this in her first presidential speech. She pointed out that businesses were being digitised “whether they like it or not” and urged the industry to embrace the way communication and information capture was changing.

“Artificial intelligence is here. You can either fight it and get left behind or get on board and be a thought leader. AI is out and is not going back in its box,” said Curran.

“My business is all about operating buildings and making them better and to do that successfully you need fantastic data with great in-depth analysis. Harnessing AI to some of the digital improvements we have already made like 4D modelling, APIs and data mining will make us more efficient and productive.”

She pointed out that tight profit margins and skills shortages made it more important than ever that building services firms operated “effectively and efficiently”.

“As we move deeper into this digital age, we will see more ‘real life’ operating information being harvested at astonishing speeds and then used to create strategies for reducing energy and carbon, and for keeping buildings safe and compliant,” she said.

She added that the “digital takeover” would require “completely new skills” but was also “an amazing opportunity to reach out to the new generation and state our case for being their career of choice” so they could contribute “to a better, greener future”.

However, the fragmented nature of our supply chains can complicate matters. Contractual arrangements often make it hard to establish who owns data and the practice of sharing information does not come naturally to many in our sector.

Yet, the kind of analysis on offer from AI could finally crack the productivity problem the building and property management sectors have been struggling with for decades. More efficient use of data can help us to streamline workflows and improve project delivery.

In fact, it would not be unreasonable to say that without improving data gathering and analysis we will simply not achieve our net zero goals and climate change ambitions.

Multiple studies have revealed that we lack the number of people we need with the skills to deliver the energy efficiency and renewable energy solutions central to net zero. AI could speed up many of the repetitive tasks currently carried out by humans – and free up more people to focus on the value-added work.

AI also means we can now monitor and control the indoor climate in ways we would never have imagined possible just a few years ago. The speed with which the technology is advancing and the improvements to sensor technology and connectivity put detailed data about temperatures, sound levels and humidity at our fingertips in ‘real time’.

“

This has significant health implications as we can dive deeply and quickly into levels of CO2 and other pollutants inside a room or building and then make quick decisions about the best mitigation measures.

AI allows HVAC controls to ‘learn’ about changes in usage or to the local weather etc. so systems can automatically recalibrate without the need for human intervention.

”

Maintenance can also be better planned, and operational issues solved before the indoor climate is affected. Energy efficiency can be noticeably improved as recommendations are made based on historic, current, and AI-forecasted information.

However, we must improve cooperation and collaboration. As well as collecting and analysing data, we must be able to share it with all the interested parties for mutual benefit – but most importantly to support the health, well-being, and productivity of every building user. n References

Don’t forget IAQ in the race to Net Zero

Stuart Smith, Commercial Director at Zehnder Group UK, explains why we must always consider insulation, efficiency and indoor air quality as equally important for our buildings and their occupants.

I

nsulate, insulate, insulate. Throughout 2023 this has been a mantra for the construction industry - and the right one to future-proof buildings for energy efficiency in the industry’s efforts to meet net zero targets for 2050.

Moreover, without means to extract and change the air, particulate matter and harmful gases (such as CO2 and airborne chemicals) amass, creating a build-up of toxic air within the building.

Focus has been put on more sustainable and (eventually) cost-effective means to achieve this, such as better insulation, air or ground source heating, solar panels and double, if not triple, glazing to prevent heat from escaping the building.

For a healthy indoor climate, the indoor air needs to be refreshed to extract the pollutants that people bring into the building. Occupants are told to regularly open windows or doors in the envelope of the building to refresh the air, but of course, that isn’t always an option.

But in many industry decisions to insulate tightly, the impact on indoor air quality (IAQ) and the health and wellbeing of the occupants seems to remain a secondary priority.

Furthermore, as soon as the windows are closed again, and the building is still occupied, the pollutants start rising again. Studies show that with window opening alone1, up to 60% of the time in a year, the air exchange is insufficient (with the CO2 value rising above 1000 ppm) and could pose a health risk to those inside. Opening windows and doors also means that more energy is used to keep the rooms at the desired temperature, which goes against the energy efficiency objective.

In fact, much of the time, the topic isn’t on the table at all. This is despite Approved Document Part F (Means of Ventilation) in the UK Building Regulations updating in 2021 to sit handin-hand with the amended Part L (Conservation of Fuel and Power) to drive the adoption of low-carbon ventilation as an industry standard to improve IAQ within buildings.

Making a building more airtight doesn’t just stop heat from escaping; it also prevents fresh airflow in and out of the property, so natural ventilation and air leakage are restricted.

As a result, hazardous pollutants become trapped inside.

46 | The BESA Book 2024

Therefore, it’s evident that as we build tighter and retrofit homes to this new energy efficient standard, an ever greater need to ventilate effectively needs to be employed. Ventilation can no longer be an afterthought but one that sits boldly at the top of the priority list.

WELL-BEING INSULATION

matter (FPM) and, even at this diameter, can get into the lungs and cause health problems. While these larger particles are wellresearched and ‘safe’ guidelines are benchmarked by the WHO, by only considering FPM, the bigger and more frightening picture is being missed.

More recent studies have found that ultra-fine particulate matter (UFP), like PM1, is considered even more dangerous due to its extremely small size. A typical PM1 particle has a larger physical surface area, despite its smaller diameter, than other fine particulates and making it more likely to carry heavy metals, chemicals, and volatile organic compounds (airborne chemicals) on its surface, causing even greater harm when inhaled.

Air pollution, both outdoor and indoor, is the most significant environmental health risk around today. According to the World Health Organisation, it is responsible for about one in every nine deaths annually and this will only get worse unless we take action to mitigate the risks.

Although air quality has gradually improved in recent times, air pollutant concentrations still exceed the 2005 WHO air quality guideline levels in many areas2 meaning they are over the air quality guideline levels that are associated with important risks to public health.

It is widely known that indoor air can contain concentrations of pollutants up to five times higher than those found outdoors, so with almost 90% of our time spent inside, it is important to realise the risks and educate on how to protect against this invisible threat.

When it comes to air quality, the industry predominantly focuses on measuring particulate matter (microscopic particles of solid matter suspended in the air) of PM10 and PM2.5 in size. These particulates are known as fine particulate

Once in the lungs, PM1 can get into the bloodstream and with regular exposure cause serious health problems such as respiratory and cardiovascular diseases.

The majority of airborne PM1 originates from human activity like emissions from factories and other industrial activity, vehicle exhaust, tire particles from vehicles and types of smoke. Densely populated urban areas, especially those with busy roadways or industrial facilities, are especially prone to PM1 pollution.

While there are fewer studies and knowledge around the harm UFP cause, the very makeup of the particles underscores the latent risks to public health and the urgent need for comprehensive mitigation strategies.

To create healthier, more sustainable and energy efficient environments, developers should be looking to replace extractor fans with a superior mechanical ventilation unit with heat recovery (MVHR).

individuals seated close to a ventilation terminal enjoy an optimal flow of fresh air, precisely as per system design. But, in contrast, those located at the far end of the office may encounter a diminished circulation of fresh air, as it must traverse through their colleagues before reaching them.

This complexity is further compounded when alterations are made to a building’s layout, be it through expansion or refurbishment. What may have once constituted an effective method of air circulation during the initial construction may no longer prove suitable. Adjusting the ventilation system to address these modifications isn’t always a feasible option and, in these cases, systems will need renewed consultation to assess the requirement and maintenance going forward. passive ventilation that allows heat to freely flow out of the building, these systems pass the extracted air over a heat exchange cell which recovers and retains the heat that would otherwise be lost.

Not only does this improve the indoor air quality, but by filtering the incoming air of pollutants – it helps to keep the home warm – thus reducing the energy input it takes to heat up.

These systems also aid cooling in the warmer months. A modulating summer bypass activates when temperatures reach a pre-set level, turning off the heat recovery element, and then through the summer, heat and humidity are extracted from the warm, humid outdoor air before fresh air enters the building. The result is a more comfortable indoor climate with a fresh air feel all year round.

Within any build, hitting the minimum requirements isn’t enough and as an industry, we should be pushing for higher standards to mitigate IAQ challenges.

Part F of the UK Building Regulations mandates the performance of ventilation systems to achieve the desired inflow of fresh air and outflow of pollutants within buildings. At present, however, Part F only sets minimum requirements for the rate of fresh airflow into a building – to ensure there is a sufficient supply of fresh air to push out pollutants. It does not stipulate requirements for how that fresh air is circulated once it is within the building envelope.

Although this is not a major issue for smaller buildings, it becomes more problematic the more extensive the internal space and the greater the area supplied by a given ventilation system. In an office, for example,

We know that mechanical ventilation provides a better and healthier indoor climate with a lower energy load. According to the SAGE Environment and Modelling Group, the minimum recommended ventilation rate suggests providing 10 litres of clean air per person per second. If a ventilation system achieves a rate of six air changes per hour, it means the room’s volume is refreshed six times in an hour.

With this ventilation rate of six air changes per hour, the ventilation system can effectively remove 95% of contaminants from the air within just 30 minutes - a far more effective, and energy-efficient, means of air management than opening windows alone.

The task now is to further educate on the importance of good IAQ within the refurbishment of our existing building stock as well as new build developments. Energy-efficient ventilation is essential to ensure occupant health and wellbeing as well as hitting our net zero goals. In 2024 we should be employing a new mantra: Insulate AND ventilate.

Delivering good indoor air quality doesn’t have to cost the earth Adam Taylor, CEO of ARM Environments and Vice-Chair of the BESA IAQ group highlights the importance of indoor air quality and explains why we must consider it alongside carbon savings.

T

he Covid-19 pandemic drew everyone’s attention to the importance of good indoor air quality (IAQ). However, there is a danger that these advances in knowledge and action will be lost in the face of the energy and climate crisis. It is possible to deliver good IAQ without creating significant carbon dioxide (CO2 emissions), but it requires an integrated, dataled approach that has not been commercially viable until now.

At the height of the pandemic, the World Health Organization (WHO) released updated guidance on the acceptable levels of air pollution required to protect people’s health.

Approved Document F (ADF) – Ventilation, requires building ventilation systems to limit the ingress of pollutants listed in the WHO guidance into buildings.

A typical ventilation system will be operated via a timeclock, with 100% of ventilation capacity supplied during all core occupied hours. During the pandemic, building operators were advised to adjust their ventilation systems to run for two hours before occupation and two hours after to flush out potentially contaminated air.

This is an inefficient way to run a ventilation system.

Demand controlled ventilation (DCV) effectively reduces the costs associated with running an HVAC system in buildings with varying occupancy levels. The extent to which the HVAC system runs is typically related to the CO2 concentration monitored within the building. The CO2 concentration is closely correlated with the number of people in the space.

The drawback of these systems is that people using the building outside of core hours, for example, cleaners and security staff, can be put at risk from pollutants building up inside an unventilated building. This issue can be partially addressed by ensuring the building has a minimum ventilation rate outside of core hours.

52 | The BESA Book 2024

Air quality controlled ventilation (AQCV) is a development conceived decades ago that allows a building’s ventilation rate to vary according to multiple indoor air quality parameters. If IAQ levels are poor, the ventilation system will deliver a higher volume of outdoor air through the air handling unit (AHU) to dilute the pollutants.

This method of operating a ventilation system has only recently become feasible due to the rise in availability of low-cost IAQ sensors. The success of these systems is dependent on the filtered supply air containing lower levels of pollutants than the air already inside the building, which is often not the case.

Air quality determined ventilation (AQDV) is a recent development that allows a building’s ventilation system to modulate according to both the indoor and the outdoor air quality (OAQ). This innovation is only now possible due to the

WELL-BEING INDOOR AIR QUALITY

availability of low-cost IAQ sensors, accurate granular outdoor air quality (OAQ) data and concessions made in Part F. OAQ varies daily, hour by hour, and seasonally, so it cannot be assumed to be “fresh air” all the time. Section 2.6 of ADF states: “Where sources of pollution vary with the time of day, such as urban road traffic, it may be acceptable, for time-limited periods, to take one of the following actions. a. Reduce the flow of external air into ventilation intakes b. Close ventilation intakes when the concentrations of external pollutants are highest.”

If levels of OAQ are poor and the IAQ is good, the ventilation system can switch to re-cycle a larger percentage of the air through the AHU. Re-cycling the air for long periods with little dilution from outside air would typically result in unsatisfactory levels of odours and gaseous compounds.

To address this, air cleaning technologies must be deployed within the AHU to remove them, including combined ePM10 and molecular filters. For decades, this “clean first” principle has been demonstrated in buildings built to ASHRAE 62.1 standards.

IAQ sensors form an integral part of this solution.

For large open-plan spaces, sensors in the supply and return ducts are sufficient to measure the air quality. In buildings with varying loads throughout the space, a higher density of sensors must be used in conjunction with volume control dampers. These will need to be retrofitted in buildings previously operated on a timeclock.

The maintenance costs of running a ventilation system effectively can be significant. On top of the energy costs of heating, cooling and dehumidifying air, routine on-site inspections and replacement consumables also add to the operational expenditure (OpEx).

Filters used in AHUs are typically supplied by the manufacturer of the AHU in the first instance. They are likely to have been sourced from their preferred supplier, with EN779 classifications of G4 pre-filters and F7 final filters being the typical setup.

On an ongoing basis, filters are likely to be sourced from the maintenance contractor’s preferred supplier, with the decision typically being made on capital expenditure (CapEx) cost only. Little thought is usually given to the filters’ particle removal efficiency (to ISO 16890), the lifespan of the filter, or its Eurovent energy rating.

When a contract is in place for routine replacement of filters, building operators don’t give this aspect of HVAC OpEx much thought, but there are significant savings to be made in both CO2 emissions and material waste. >>

WELL-BEING INDOOR AIR QUALITY

In accordance with ADF of the building regulations, in certain buildings and HVAC configurations, an ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI) system should be installed within the AHU to protect occupants from the risk posed by re-cycled airborne pathogens.

Older-style fans with belt drives need periodic inspections, lubrication and belt replacements. These should be upgraded to energy efficient direct-drive EC fans. Some manufacturers offer cloud-connected fans that incorporate several sensors to report any issues ahead of failure, also come with sealed-for-life bearings, and don’t utilise drive belts.

As an example, two F7 filters (both rated at ISO 16890 ePM1 60%) from the same manufacturer can have wildly different energy ratings, such as an eight-pocket bag filter with an annual energy consumption of >2,050kWh vs a compact V filter at 808kWh. The more energy efficient filter will also require replacement 50% less often. The higher performance filter is more expensive from a CapEx perspective, but the reduced OpEx will still give ROI in a couple of months.

Pre-filters on an AHU require more regular replacement than final filters, but this disparity can be partially mitigated by fitting long-life pre-filters. If due consideration is given during filter selection, the timing of pre-filter replacement can often be aligned with the need to replace final filters.

If AQDV is utilised, intake filters will have a longer service life, as they will not become loaded with dust during periods with high pollution levels. This saving on consumables will only be realised by monitoring the filters’ condition and their change frequency being determined by their pressure drop rather than routine, irrespective of their dust loading. Filter monitoring is particularly relevant when DCV, AQCV or AQDV systems are deployed in buildings where a hybrid-working culture means that buildings are sparsely occupied much of the time.

Newly available cloud-connected sensors can be incorporated into an HVAC system to allow performance and failures to be monitored from a remote location, even if there is no building management system (BMS). If only some parameters are remotely monitored, then the full reduction in OpEx cost cannot be realised, as routine inspections will still be required for some components, incurring travel and labour costs and the associated CO2 emissions.

In addition to filter load status, filter pressure drop, AHU runtime and airflow supplied, UVGI run-hours, fan energy consumption, fan status, OAQ and IAQ can all be sent to the cloud to give a complete picture of the system status.

Fitting a UVGI system to irradiate the cooling coil and drain pan removes the need for routine mould and biofilm inspections and improves the efficiency of the cooling coil.

All the components described can be incorporated into new air handling units or as part of a comprehensive AHU refurbishment, which is around 25% cheaper than the cost of a new unit. The optimal time to upgrade to this modern way of operating is when an AHU reaches the end of its serviceable life, as the cost of replacing fans does not need to be included in the ROI calculation.

“

”

Many of these upgrades can be fitted individually to certain AHUs, and many have a quick ROI, but when deployed together, combined with a different approach to maintenance, a significant reduction in OpEx can be realised.

Efficient operation of AHUs is seldom high on the list when an organisation comes up with ideas to reduce its CO2 emissions, but it should be, as there are significant savings to be made, particularly when considering whole life carbon emissions. n

ENERGY EFFICIENCY SUSTAINABILITY

Contractors – now is the time to showcase sustainability Oliver Collins, Channel Marketing Manager at Mitsubishi Electric, on why the whole supply chain including contractors must take steps to deliver net zero for construction clients.

O

rganisations today are striving to reach net zero. This extends not only to their direct operating practices but to the entire supply chain they work with as they aim to reduce all emissions – Scope 1, 2 and 3. This means that everyone they work with – including contractors – has a crucial role in driving and delivering sustainability.

Contractors have a significant opportunity to lead the way on the transformative journey to net zero. In fact, the contractors that demonstrate a commitment to sustainability and build environmental policies into their business plans will be able to position themselves as change-makers in the industry. On the other hand, those who don’t act now to make these changes will face real challenges in attracting business – and risk not being in operation ten years from now.

To fulfil this role, contractors must now find ways to make their business operations more sustainable. If not, they risk losing out on tenders to other businesses who are prepared to answer questions on their sustainable practices and environmental credentials.

Thankfully, there are many steps that contractors can take to build an understanding of where to start with implementing sustainable practices, ensure that their business operates as efficiently as possible, and get prepared to win new business for years to come.

This isn’t a future problem. The questions being asked by organisations in the specification and tender documents are already changing. They are looking into areas like environmental policies, procurement policies and carbon impact of the products being selected.

These include conducting corporate carbon footprint calculations and mapping the impact of the wider supply chain –the five steps below show some simple steps to boost your sustainability.

Staying informed about the evolving best practices, guidance, and legislationchanging drivers within the market is vital to put the right business strategy in place to drive sustainability. This doesn’t just mean an individual team learning more about any changing legislation, but everyone in the wider community of the business must be engaged.

As well as staying informed, contractors should enhance their understanding of sustainable practices and solutions relating to net zero to provide informed advice to current and prospective clients and stay ahead of the competition. >>

The contractors that demonstrate a commitment to sustainability and build environmental policies into their business plans will be able to position themselves as change-makers in the industry.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY SUSTAINABILITY

To showcase this, it’s important to communicate how your business and projects contribute to improving factors like indoor air quality, which can create healthier and more comfortable living and working environments.

As well as this, any work being carried out in the local community – from working with local schools to supporting local sports teams – all has a positive impact.

Finally, the ability to effectively communicate the commitments being made to net zero, and the value your services bring to current and future clients, is key. To do this, develop a clear messaging strategy highlighting the environmental, economic, and social benefits your business has achieved as a result of embracing sustainable practices.

One effective and engaging way to show this is through case studies of successful net zero projects you have completed to instil confidence and attract like-minded clients who prioritise sustainability.

Bodies like the Supply Chain Sustainability School can help to learn more about how a business can help to build spaces that are moving in the right direction towards the ambitious goal of net zero by 2050.

To improve the sustainability credentials of your business, mapping the current carbon footprint is also vital.

Then, it’s possible to put a clear plan in place to reduce its impact – and it allows you to tell customers that sustainability is at the heart of your business and is reflected in its operating practices.

Another way to demonstrate these commitments is through earning a formal accreditation, showing potential customers that your business takes sustainability seriously. For example, Mitsubishi Electric’s Committed Carbon Reduction Partner (CCRP) Accreditation means that contractors can be formally recognised for their outstanding efforts in reducing carbon emissions and fostering a sustainable future.

If your business can showcase this type of accreditation, it will be well-positioned to meet the growing demand for sustainable suppliers and gain a competitive edge in the market.

The big takeaway here is you are not alone in this process.

Every business on the planet should be on this same journey, so every supplier you use will also be looking to improve. By reviewing and switching to suppliers already putting in the work and ahead of the sustainability curve, you can help drive your own emissions down.

The move towards net zero presents contractors with a tremendous opportunity – and one that is available to them right now. The priorities of many businesses are changing, and sustainability is coming to the fore, so contractors must be prepared to showcase their commitments to net zero to thrive for years to come.

By reducing energy consumption in your operations, you can also set an example for your clients and demonstrate your commitment to sustainability, possibly reducing future offsetting costs.

It can seem like an overwhelming task, but by staying informed, reviewing operations and local impact, and then effectively communicating your business’s value proposition, it is possible to position your business at the forefront of sustainable change. n

This process does take time and expertise, but programmes, including Mitsubishi Electric’s partnership with Climate Partner, can help businesses to understand carbon impact and find further ways to reduce it.

We know that improving sustainability positively benefits both the environment and business. But net zero practices also come with social advantages too.

Overheating in apartments

TAKE A NEW HYBRID APPROACH

Temperature of summer days could increase by up to

6.8°

When is hot too hot?

We all know that uncomfortable feeling when it’s too hot, but when temperatures surpass 35°C it can also impact our health. Side effects of heat stress can include dizziness, nausea and confusion. In the most extreme cases it can lead to loss of consciousness and even to death.

Cooling for apartments: the story so far Building high rise apartments in urban cities and designing them to be thermally efficient contributes to overheating in modern buildings.

Within the UK Building Regulations, Approved Document O provides guidance to building designers on mitigating overheating in residential buildings and reducing these effects. Whilst it prioritises passive ventilation solutions, in many inner city developments this approach does not yield the desired effect and mechanical means must be considered. Options have mostly been limited to centralised plant providing site-wide air conditioning or split systems with fan-coils, plus the ever increasingly popular mechanical ventilation with heat recovery (MVHR) systems. However, the former is costly and the latter was never designed for cooling, but for ventilation, so cannot be relied upon to reduce the temperature low enough.

www.nuaire.co.uk | 029 2085 8200 | info@nuaire.co.uk

Cool down a different way Now, Nuaire has a new solution which builds on the MVHR system to create a hybrid cooling system: the MRXBOX. It combines the heat-exchanger coolth recovery of an MVHR system with the cooling effect provided by a DX coil. It significantly lowers the temperature of the fresh-air supply in order to improve occupant comfort. It not only makes for more comfortable internal temperature levels, but it is a continuous source of mechanical ventilation and runs at a lower cost and pull on the grid, seeing greater energy efficiencies.

MRXBOX provides a solution to overheating in buildings where it cannot be designed out with a fabric first approach, such as through building orientation, window sizes and orientation and external solar shading.

HEATING HEAT INTERFACE UNITS

Providing flexibility to improve heat network performance Heat network technology must adapt to changes over its lifetime. Helen Cooper, Head of Marketing for Altecnic, looks at how flexibility can be designed in from the start.

“T

he only constant is change” is a saying that certainly applies to the life of a heat network.

No matter how efficient a design is, the demands on a heat network will likely change over its operational life. With new regulations on heat network operation on the horizon, how can specifiers design -in the flexibility to keep their existing heat networks efficient?

Heat networks are key to the government’s strategy to reach net zero emissions by 2050. The Climate Change Committee (CCC) estimated that around 18% of UK heat will need to come from heat networks by 2050 if the UK is to meet its net zero target. Heat networks currently provide about 2% to 3%.

There is existing guidance on heat network design and performance, such as the CIBSE CP1 (2020) standards and schemes like the BESA HIU Test Regime - the Technical Standard for UK HIUs. Whilst these provide a benchmark for heat network design and performance, compliance is voluntary.

Following years of underperforming heat networks delivering poor consumer outcomes, such as high prices and frequent outages, the government has appointed Ofgem as the regulator.

Ofgem will give customers on heat networks access to similar protections as other energy customers. This includes greater transparency, information about their heat, and options for redress if things go wrong.

To provide assurances for heat network performance and efficiency, statutory technical standards will be implemented as a Technical Assurance Scheme (HNTAS). Ofgem will monitor compliance with the HNTAS and have powers to take enforcement action.

HNTAS will accommodate all heat networks, from singlebuilding ‘communal’ networks to large ‘district’ heat networks supplying multiple buildings. It is expected that HNTAS will build on the conventions of industry best practice as laid out in technical guidance, such as the CP1 Heat Networks: Code of Practice for the UK (2020), supported by schemes such as the BESA HIU Test Regime.

In addition, the HNTAS will develop processes for demonstrating compliance with established and agreed technical standards.

Overall, heat network regulation will improve how heat networks are designed, installed, and ensure operators continue to monitor and improve in-use performance.

When designing or upgrading a heat network, this leads to the question: how can specifiers achieve the flexibility needed to future-proof the network? One option to consider is the role of electronic heat interface units (HIUs).

Mechanical HIUs have been around for a long time, but the latest electronic HIUs offer significant improvements, including features that help to keep the system efficient.

When specifying HIUs, it’s vital to discuss requirements with the manufacturer to ensure they can provide products that meet the needs of a modern heat network. >>

The SATK32107 HIU is specifically designed to achieve maximum efficiency on low temperature/heat pump lead networks and is tested to the BESA standard.

HEATING HEAT INTERFACE UNITS

HIUs can also deliver reduced response times for DHW production.

They can give 100% priority to domestic hot water provision. Alternatively, they can be used to provide a mix of heating and DHW, for example, 90/10 or 20/80, which ensures rooms do not become cold during periods of extended hot water demand.

With the growing requirement for smart building controls, today’s HIUs should also be connectable, for example, using a protocol such as Modbus.

This allows them to be remotely interrogated and any fault messages read. So when a maintenance engineer attends a site, they have the required spare parts to hand. It is possible to read the current apartment temperature and compare and change the heating set point on the HIU. For example, in the SATK range, features such as RTL and flow rate limitation can also be read and changed via a Modbus network.

For example, the low heating demand in today’s apartments means that only a minimal flow rate is required on the heating circuit. This low flow rate makes it difficult to balance the radiators in an apartment.

The result is that most apartment heating systems are not balanced correctly, and the return temperature will be high and subsequently transferred to the network, and the efficiency of the whole network will be significantly reduced.

Electronic HIUs (for example, the SATK range from Altecnic) are equipped with return temperature limitation (RTL). This allows the installer to set a maximum return temperature on the network.

Once enabled and set, the HIU will control its output into the apartment to ensure this pre-set, primary return temperature is met. The network is protected from inefficiency and failure caused by small delta T’s and high primary flow rates.

Moreover, many HIUs on the market have a permanent, inbuilt preheat function. This bleeds energy through the HIU constantly.

Bearing in mind that the tenant may only use their hot water a few times a day, having preheat on permanently wastes energy and costs the tenant money. But HIUs with configurable controllers allow the tenant to set the preheat function to come on and go off automatically only when required.

Primary flow rate limitation is another feature to look out for in an HIU. Typical UK apartments have a heating demand of around 3 to 4 kW. However, for the first 10 – 15 minutes of the heating switching on, the apartment can take 8 or 9kW from the network.

If many apartments use heating at the same time, say at 7:00am on a weekday morning, then the network may not have enough capacity and it will fail to provide hot water at the extremities. To solve this problem, HIUs with a set maximum flow rate are available. The HIU connected to a 3kW apartment can only take 3kW, so the network is protected from failure and demand peaks are reduced.

www.theBESA.com

@BESAGroup

BESA Group

Reducing the likelihood of system failure is critical for today’s heat networks. HIU features such as anti-pump clog and control valve cycling can increase reliability.

This can be particularly useful during the summer months, for example, or if the tenant is away on holiday when the heating system might not be used for many weeks. In these situations pumps can clog or their bearings corrode. If a heating system is not used for 24 hours, the HIU will run the pump for 5 seconds, ensuring it stays in optimum condition.

Similarly, if the control valves have operated for 24 hours, the unit will cycle the control valves from fully open to fully closed independently. This operation takes a few seconds to complete, but the subsequent flow rate through the circuit ensures that the control valves stay free of dirt or debris and allows for the circulation of chemicals in the LTHW system.

The above features of electronic HIUs help heat network designers to ensure their designs are ‘regulation-ready’.

Their innovative features provide valuable tools to installers and operators as they allow continuous improvements to be made to a network throughout its operational lifecycle.

Selecting the right HIU for heat networks can help the industry work towards its net-zero aims and improve the end-user experience by preventing outages, improving comfort, increasing efficiency, and lowering bills. n

HEATING SOLAR THERMAL

Solar thermal – having a new day in the sun

The credit crunch and tighter energy efficiency standards are leading to some surprising developments in commercial heating and hot water projects, according to Richard Taberner, project engineer at Lochinvar.

T

he pressure on budgets is making the need for energy savings a more pressing concern for many building owners and managers, and some are turning back to solutions that had fallen out of fashion in recent years.

For example, there has been a significant surge of renewed interest in solar thermal technology after a decade when it had disappeared from view – almost completely. With Feed-in-Tariffs sparking a surge in the installation of photovoltaic (PV) systems, solar thermal was (literally) squeezed out of the market due to lack of sufficient roof space to accommodate both.

However, specifiers are taking another look at the technology as they search for more energy efficiency prompted by the dramatic surge in fossil fuel prices.

Also, improved insulation levels have reduced space heating demand making hot water production a bigger proportion of the energy load on buildings – and, therefore, the bigger source of potential savings.

At Lochinvar, we saw unusually high demand for our solar thermal solutions during 2023. It had been a very quiet market for the last 10 years and many players have dropped out of the market – so firms who had remained invested in this technology now have something of an advantage.

www.theBESA.com

@BESAGroup

BESA Group

The growth in heat pump applications is another development in favour of solar thermal as the two technologies work well together in integrated systems.

The solar thermal collectors reduce the amount of work the heat pump needs to do in applications with high hot water demand by feeding a thermal store that provides an almost continuous supply.

With heat pumps becoming a ‘default’ specification to meet local planning requirements, many engineers see solar thermal as a source of additional energy cost savings in buildings with high hot water usage. This hybrid approach is also a more affordable option for cutting carbon emissions than a totally renewable installation.

The government has set aside £12.6bn to finance the reduction in energy use in domestic, commercial, and industrial buildings by 15% by 2030 (compared with 2021 levels). It has also launched a high-powered taskforce charged with driving this forward. We can see solar thermal playing a significant role.

Co-chaired by leading banker Alison Rose and energy security and net zero minister Lord Callanan, the taskforce will devise a plan to unlock a market that the government believes could be worth £1 trillion to UK businesses between now and 2030. >>

well-being conditions for building occupants.

This is all part of the pathway towards the Future Homes and Buildings Standard that aims to make all buildings ‘net zero ready’ from 2025.

The new Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES) could also be transformational because they place a regulatory requirement on refurbishment and retrofit for energy saving.

Since 2018 a minimum EPC rating of E has been in place for new tenancies, but since 1st April this year that has been extended to cover existing leases making it unlawful for a landlord to let any commercial property with an EPC rating of less than E. Heat pumps are perfect for producing the low-temperature heat needed for well-insulated buildings, but you tick all the energy-saving boxes if you then add on a renewable source of hot water. This approach is bang in line with the government’s ambition.

So, it is no coincidence that we have seen a steady increase in enquiries about our solar thermal range which includes flat plate and vacuum flat plate collectors, both of which are compact and lightweight in design, but high in efficiency.

The vacuum flat plate collector can be used in areas where standard flat plates cannot such as in areas close to the coast as the plate is sealed from the salty environment around it. Vacuum tube collectors are generally the most efficient, but Lochinvar’s vacuum flat plate collectors have the additional benefit of being able to be laid flat – on flat roofs for example – without much drop off in efficiency.

However, it is important to point out that there should be a steady demand for hot water to make solar thermal commercially viable.

Many building services engineers now recognise this and are making sure they receive good intelligence about how the building is likely to be used.

Revisions to the Building Regulations also mean system designers must rethink some of their approaches. New homes need to have a 30% smaller carbon footprint under the new Part L and the requirement for non-domestic buildings is a 27% reduction.

These changes come in tandem with revisions to Part F that require project teams to address standards of indoor air quality and overheating to improve the health and

www.theBESA.com

@BESAGroup

BESA Group

That is just the start, however, as the MEES level is set to rise to B by 1st April 2030 with landlords given two ‘compliance windows’ starting in April 2025 to achieve it. All commercial properties will have to be at least C rated by 2027.

This creates clear commercial incentives for building owners and managers to both cut their rising energy bills and ensure their expensive built assets do not become ‘stranded’ i.e. buildings that will eventually be too expensive to retrofit to meet tightening low carbon standards.

This is an example of how regulation can be made to work in harmony with commercial drivers by setting the legal benchmarks that underpin a better-performing and, therefore, more financially viable building stock.

It is a rapidly changing landscape for anyone designing, installing, and commissioning heating, hot water, and renewable systems, but the regulatory requirements are moving closer to the commercial drivers, so we are definitely now on the right track.

Appealing to the better nature of property developers is one way of delivering net zero but offering them a financial incentive is more likely to deliver change at the pace the UK government wants. And, as they look for the most cost-effective and appropriate solutions for their projects, it seems the sun has not yet set on solar thermal. n

The do’s and don’ts of an efficient, future-proofed heat network Charlie Mowbray, Senior Product Manager of Ideal Heating, offers insights and tips into making the most of heat networks for the UK’s net zero future.

I

n the UK, heat networks never really took hold as they have in other parts of Northern Europe.

We discovered gas in the North Sea and placed reliance on natural gas delivered direct to individual homes from the 1960s onwards. But that is all set to change.

A transformation of heat generation technology and products in the UK is necessary if we are to reach Net Zero in 2050, and no single type of technology will provide the solution.

Heat networks are expected to provide up to 20% of heat in buildings by 2050, and they can provide a flexible, futureproof solution to decarbonising our heating and hot water.

There are three core parts to a heat network: the energy centre, the distribution network, and the heat interface unit (HIU). The energy centre is the central plant room or dedicated building housing all the equipment responsible for generating or collecting the thermal energy, for storing it or transferring it to the water in the network and pumping that water around the heat network.

As you would expect, the distribution network consists of all the pipework and any valves or ancillary equipment that distributes and balances the flow across the network. This might be buried in the ground or run through risers in a building.

At the point of use within the dwelling is the HIU. This is the appliance that transfers the thermal energy from the network to provide heating and hot water for the end user.

HIUs come in indirect or direct models.

Indirect HIUs typically have two heat exchangers in the appliance and provide complete separation between the heat network for both heating and hot water. Direct HIUs usually have just one heat exchanger that may separate heating or hot water from the network; at least one of the services they provide is through a direct connection between the network and either the dwelling heating or hot water system.

74 | The BESA Book 2024

Heat networks can take their heat input from different sources, making them both flexible and future-proof, allowing for gas boilers now but able to swap to lower carbon alternatives, such as heat pumps, in the future.

With the current government indecision around the future of heating in the UK, this must be a major benefit.

Heat networks are also a highly scalable solution, regardless of the area covered by the network, or the number of buildings. Furthermore, a single network can encompass dwellings and commercial buildings.

Unlike other types of heating, heat networks can be relatively easily retrofitted into existing housing stock where traditional heating appliances are being replaced, particularly in high-density housing, as the fabric of a building or the heating system in the dwelling may not necessarily have to be substantially altered to create the network.

Safety is also another tick in the box for heat networks as there are no flue routes or gas connections to accommodate within a building, for either individual heating appliances or plant.

HEATING HEAT NETWORKS

First and foremost, look for an HIU tested against the Building Engineering Services Association (BESA) Test Regime. This indicates how an HIU performs under specific conditions and provides independently certified levels of performance, rather than solely relying on manufacturers’ claims.

“

All these benefits, plus the end-user can receive the same level of comfort and service as they would expect from a traditional heating appliance. They can also look familiar to householders. For example, Ideal Heating’s POD HIUs look like a domestic combi boiler from the outside with similar controls, so are reassuring to use.

Whilst the energy centre and distribution network represent the biggest capital costs of a heat network and are the most complex to get right, without the HIU the heat cannot be transferred to each dwelling/building. To ensure the network and the HIUs are operating in harmony, at their optimum, there are aspects that a specifier or installer should consider when choosing an HIU.

In addition, make sure that the performance of the HIU is confirmed for the current operating parameters of your particular network now and, just as importantly, for any future operating parameters. I write ‘future’ because many heat networks may currently operate with gas boilers in the energy centre and a network temperature of 70°C or higher today.

Heat networks can take their heat input from different sources, making them both flexible and future-proof, allowing for gas boilers now but able to swap to lower carbon alternatives, such as heat pumps, in the future.

”

However, that energy centre may convert to a Low or Zero Carbon energy source such as an air source heat pump, which typically operates most efficiently at lower temperatures. The HIU must be flexible enough to work efficiently at this lower network temperature; some cannot, which could be a costly and inconvenient mistake to rectify down the line.

As well as BESA, the Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers (CIBSE) has invested considerable time and expertise in developing their code of practice. CIBSE CP1 Heat networks: Code of Practice for the UK, outlines examples of best practice or minimum standards that you should consider when making your selection. >>

HEATING HEAT NETWORKS

We’ve mentioned the importance of ensuring the HIU’s performance range when designing and specifying a system, including its ability to function at lower network temperatures to future-proof the system.

The same issues arise when it comes to the operator deciding to weather compensate the primary flow temperature from the energy centre in a bid to improve efficiency. This normally occurs in the summer months when the heating load is reduced.

If the HIUs on that network aren’t designed or specified to operate with a reduced flow temperature, weather compensation can be counter-productive and the HIU may not be able to maintain the same duty for domestic hot water production, or it might cause an increased return temperature from the HIU. So, as before, take time to really consider your choice of HIUs and review the performance data.

The advice contained within CIBSE CP1 that I feel is particularly beneficial, and that often gets overlooked, includes: • design considerations for minimising the length of lateral runs in buildings from the main vertical risers; • ensuring network pipe sizing is appropriate, not oversized which leads to increased heat losses and contributes to inefficient network operation; • ensuring that the selected HIU consistently delivers low return temperatures for the specific network operating conditions, across a range of loads.

It’s also vital that you don’t leave a bypass open on the network, or on flushing valves before the HIUs, as this can vastly increase the return temperatures to the energy centre and have a detrimental effect on the network efficiency.

Lastly, look at the manufacturer. What level of support do they provide, either at the front-end during the design and specification of the network, or once the appliances are in service? And don’t get caught out - check the availability of the appliances and spare parts.

Heat networks and heat interface units are tried and tested technology, and a proven way in which we can help to decarbonise heat in buildings at scale. Ensuring that we realise the best efficiency on the networks and provide great levels of service and thermal comfort for the resident, requires due diligence, common sense and attention to detail both in the design and installation phases, and high-quality appliances. n

We see certain mistakes being repeatedly made in some aspects of heat networks and HIUs that you really should take great efforts to avoid.

For example, correct use of insulation is key yet, we keep seeing the thickness of insulation reduced during value engineering or construction phases, probably to reduce costs.

Even with the correct thickness, the standard of the installation of the insulation can have a dramatic effect on the efficiency of a network. Installers might not appreciate the negative consequences both of these areas can have on the longterm operating costs and efficiency of the network.

Commissioning of the HIU is where we can encounter a number of errors, all of which can lead to increased return temperatures to the energy centre. The main offender here is a failure to check that the required differential pressure is available at the HIU.

Plotting Pathways to Net Zero Rob Erwood, Commercial Sales and Specification Director at Baxi, discusses the role of heat in the UK clean energy transition and the importance of a holistic solutions-based approach to achieve optimal outcomes for every building type.

A

ccording to the latest government statistics1, the built environment accounts for 30% of total UK emissions, with heat in buildings responsible for just over three quarters of this figure. Taking immediate action to reduce the carbon intensity of heat is therefore vital if we are to achieve our 2050 net zero ambition and reduce the impact of climate change.

Ultimately, the goal is to transition to low-carbon heating and hot water technologies such as heat pumps and electric water heaters. The reality, however, is that decarbonising heat can be a complex task with many different factors, from the building type to the available budget, influencing how quickly and easily it can be achieved.

Take heat pumps, the merits of which are well established, particularly in buildings designed from the ground up to use low temperature heating effectively. We see air source heat pumps (ASHP) as the most popular and cost-effective choice of heat pump and are pleased to be expanding our existing Remeha heat pump range to include both high and low temperature ASHPs.

78 | The BESA Book 2024

But heat pumps per se should not be considered a panacea to the challenge at hand. The unfortunate reality is that spending the entire budget on a heat pump to decarbonise an older, draughty non-domestic building without any other preparation will not necessarily guarantee success. And as a poorly performing heat pump will result in high running costs, an inadequately heated building and unreliable heating and hot water, it’s a scenario to be avoided at all costs. Nor is it best practice to default to recommending high temperature heat pumps without considering first how to reduce energy usage and heat losses within the building.

How, then to approach heat decarbonisation and achieve best value performance for budget from a heating system refurbishment? A good starting point is to identify the immediate, medium and long-term goals, as well as the available time to complete the work, the budget and any funding opportunities. This will make it possible to plan out and design the phased stages of refurbishment.

Plotting a pathway to net zero also has the advantage of enabling forward budgeting while ensuring good practice design for maximum energy, carbon and cost reductions at each stage.

HEATING CLEAN ENERGY

Pioneering with packaged plant rooms One Scottish NHS Trust is pioneering a flexible approach to meet a whole series of requirements related to heating refurbishment. NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde is successfully using a packaged plant room to minimise disruption, improve health and safety, maintain continuity of service and make progress towards its climate goals.

When the existing boiler plant serving the Maternity Unit at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital needed replacing, there were a number of concerns from improving the efficiency of the heating system to asbestos considerations. As a master plan for the overall site, potentially including future connection to a district heating system, was already in development, the solution also needed to be future proof.

The first consideration when addressing existing buildings should always be energy usage and energy losses.

Implementing passive measures such as roof and wall insulation, draught proofing and improving the thermal performance of windows and doors will reduce heat losses and energy usage, delivering an immediate impact on a building’s energy consumption and heating bills.

Energy efficiency is critical to reducing emissions, especially when dealing with existing buildings. The cleanest – and cheapest – kWh of energy is, after all, the one you don’t use.

Project restrictions and limitations can make providing a more efficient, modern heating and hot water system more problematic in certain buildings. So, in the drive for net zero, designers must continue to innovate, using existing and new technologies to help organisations meet their sustainability goals.

One means of maintaining efficient building operation at an early stage of the decarbonisation process, might be to replace ageing plant with reliable, future-ready, low NOx condensing boilers or water heaters.

Exploring using electric point-of-use water heaters or cylinders to avoid large scale energy use for hot water could be another option. As point-of-use equipment only uses energy when hot water is required, this keeps any hot water pipework runs to an absolute minimum to avoid heat transfer losses. It also makes it much easier to monitor, measure and control hot water usage. >>

Baxi Packaged Solutions was selected by project consultant Craig Gallacher at WGM Consulting Engineers to design and build the externally sited packaged plant room. This contains three Remeha Gas 620 Ace boilers with a total output of 3,600 kW to provide the required high output space heating, complete with all pipework, an air/dirt separator and a dosing pot, along with power and lighting via a small distribution board.

The plant room is designed to connect to a new low loss header and plate heat exchangers in the main building and provides sufficient space to accommodate this equipment if required at a future date.

As the container will last for 20 to 25 years, there is an opportunity to use it for other sites, meaning that the intermediate solution for the Maternity Unit is not wasted The NHS estates team said: “From patient care, safety and continuity of services, through to retrofitting new, sustainable plant into existing buildings and systems, the complexities can be overwhelming. This plantroom solution covers everything from the immediate needs of the building as well as wider Board views, giving us the flexibility to develop the existing estate in line with the overall NHS net zero values and targets.”

When the time is right and the heat pump design philosophy is locked in, a number of issues should be addressed.

• Space – allocate external space for the heat pump. Where possible, make sure that the specification is flexible enough to accommodate various models or cascading ASHPs. • Electrical connections – is there sufficient capacity? It’s likely that additional power requirements will need to be brought to site, so understand what is possible.

• Complementary products – consider adding additional renewable technologies such as solar panels, which may be able to produce all the energy you need to run your heat pump.

• Hybrid heat pump solutions – where a standalone heat pump is not an option, a hybrid heat pump system can provide an effective means of overcoming retrofit challenges and decarbonise part of the energy use.

Whether using hybrid heat pump solutions for space heating or domestic hot water generation, a welldesigned system will reduce both greenhouse gas emissions and energy consumption, meeting heat demand more sustainably.

The aim should be to maximise heat pump contribution performance where possible, while taking all project limitations into account. Care should be taken to design the hybrid heat pump system in such a way that it successfully maximises the efficiency of both technologies. Flow and return temperatures, ∆Ts, controls and the detailed hydronic design should all be taken into careful consideration when blending the technologies. Expert manufacturers will be able to provide advice on these aspects to address and avoid any conflict.

There’s no denying that decarbonising heat is a huge challenge. But your chosen manufacturer should be able to offer the necessary combination of products and techniques as well as the essential technical advice to support optimal results at every stage.

By asking the right questions, they will be able to gain a clear understanding of the immediate and long-term goals and work alongside you to propose an achievable pathway to net zero.

With early collaboration and knowledge pooling, we can work together to identify and deliver a solution based around each individual building and bespoke to its unique requirements. n Reference

The use of hydronic radiators with low temperature systems A steep rise in energy costs is forcing us to make buildings more environmentally friendly. Kevin Pearson, Specification Manager UK for Hudevad Radiator Design, considers the implications for heating systems.

C

limate change and energy prices are driving us to seek ways to ensure that our buildings are more energy efficient and sustainable. The UK must also address its heating systems in particular if it is to achieve the 2050 Net Zero target.

Modern optimised insulation standards, in many cases, make the use of costly and energy-demanding heating systems obsolete. This is a significant step in the right direction and makes the use of energy-saving heating systems, supported by low temperature radiators, more achievable.

Installing low temperature heating systems can cause issues when using traditional hydronic radiators and a few considerations needs to be made to stay clear of the common pitfalls.

For example, to get the best performance of an air source heat pump requires a different approach to traditional boilers.

Often, users with gas boiler systems operate their heating

system by waiting until the indoor temperature drops below a certain point, then blasting the heating until it’s warm again.

On the other hand, air source heat pumps require a slower but steadier approach. Because it takes them a little while to heat up the space, and they operate at a lower temperature, it’s best to keep the heat pump on for longer periods of time.

That means, instead of allowing the temperature to fluctuate by some extremes, as with a traditional boiler, it is better to maintain a steady comfortable temperature all day long.

This becomes a challenge when replacing old for new technologies. Let’s have a look at one of the main issues of replacing a fossil fuel boiler with air or ground source heat pump.

Currently, when installing a gas boiler, we use a standard format to calculate the heating required for each room based on the EN442 standard water temperature set of 75°C, flow and 65°C, return and an ambient room air temperature of 20⁰ (expressed as 75/65/20) which gives a ∆t 50°C,.

With the introduction of the New Part L Building Regulations in June 2022, the maximum flow temperature for a new domestic replacement heating system should not exceed 55°C,. Apart from the building’s fabric (insulation levels, glazing, airtightness etc.) selecting and sizing the radiators is therefore the next most important job.

The difference between older, higher system temperatures and the newer, lower ones can have a significant impact on the heat output from radiators. Here is an example using the EN442 standard to meet a room’s heating requirement compared to a renewable heat source.

Let’s say a living room requires 900W and the temperature set is 75/65/20 (∆t 50°C,). This would require a radiator 600mm high x 1000mm long, single convector. >>

HEATING HEATING SYSTEMS

To satisfy heat requirements at ever-lower flow and return temperature and get the most possible amount of heat output, Hudevad Radiator Design, along with other radiator manufactures, have over the years continued to improve efficiency of their heat emitters.

This has been achieved, for example, by reducing water content, increasing surface area, increasing the depth or number of panels and the design of the convector fins.

An installer can select various types of panels from Type 10 (single panel, no convectors) right up to a Type 33 (triple panel, triple convector). >>

“

Radiators which are designed for the most amount of convection heat (as opposed to radiant heat) perform better at low water temperatures. This is why radiator manufacturers over the last 30 years have developed ranges of radiators which are designed to work with low temperature hydronic heating systems.

If we change from a boiler to an air source heat pump, the parameters change. The BS EN 14511 specifies a flow and return temperature of 45°C, and 40°C, respectively on-air source heat pumps at test conditions of 7°C, outdoor temperature.

Assuming the same ambient room temperature as before of 20°C,, the air source heat pump operates on a much lower temperature of a ∆t of 22.5°C,.

”

Assuming no other changes, the output requirements for the room remain constant and requires 900W, but the radiator previously selected) 600 high 1000mm long, single convector), will only achieve 330W at the new temperature set (45/40/20, ∆t 22.5°C,). This is a drop in output of over 50%. In this case, a larger radiator must be used to reach the same target output.

While heat pump manufacturers have continuously been able to increase the temperatures their units can produce, this can come at a cost to the efficiency of the unit. Therefore, it is advisable to use the applicable standards.

HEATING HEATING SYSTEMS

A key point to keep in mind is that the size of radiators affects how effectively it will heat your home. As a rule of thumb, the larger the radiators, the better job they’ll do. But size is not the only consideration.

Radiators are a familiar product throughout the home and workplace.

They are reliable and easy to use since users can simply adjust temperatures by using radiator controls or wall-mounted room thermostats. Therefore, it is a great advantage to use such a reliable and proven technology when switching to lower temperature heat sources.

The size – height and length – as well as the depth, are the most important factors when selecting radiators with renewable heating.

With the large surface area of modern radiators, heat output is maximised.

But heat output is not everything. We also want it to look good! Few householders would choose a bulky radiator over a smaller, sleeker one if they had the choice.

This is where design radiators have an advantage. By selecting the right design of radiators with a smooth flat front, enclosed sides, and discreet profiled top, a type 33 will look less intrusive in the room.

If we use the earlier example, it is important that the installer, when replacing old to new technology, also consider replacing the existing radiators to maintain the ideal room temperature and client’s comfort. To achieve 900W @ 45/40/20 (∆t 22.5°C,), a 600mm high 1200mm long, type 33 (triple panel, triple convector) would meet the requirement without overextending the length.

While most radiators will work with heat pumps, some work better than others. If you want to get the most out of a heating system, there are big differences between the kind of radiators available and the type of heating they can provide.

Modern panel radiators with their low water content and large surface area heat up quicker than traditional cast iron radiators. This means they respond faster to change in the environment, allowing the system to operate more efficiently and avoiding potentially wasted energy.

Radiators which are designed for the most amount of convection heat (as opposed to radiant heat) perform better at low water temperatures. This is why radiator manufacturers over the last 30 years have developed ranges of radiators which are designed to work with low temperature hydronic heating systems. From low convectors to flat fronted horizontal and vertical radiators - all are designed to operate efficiently and consistently.

www.theBESA.com

@BESAGroup

BESA Group

Another way to maximise heat output with low water temperatures is by using vertical radiators. With a high vertical radiator, the “chimney effect” i.e., natural convection can be maximised, providing impressive outputs at low water temperatures while using the least amount of wall space.

It is vitally important when moving to new heating technology to look at the full system, including the existing heat emitters.

Aside from the critically important factors of the building’s fabric - insulation levels, glazing and airtightness and so on just replacing an old boiler with an air source heat pump will create poor results and unsatisfied clients.

Best practice is therefore to future-proof the installation or replacement of radiators by using the right heat loss calculations and selecting the right types and sizes of radiators to do the job. n

HEAT PUMPS EFFICIENCY

Heat pumps for efficient hot water generation on lower temperatures Barrie Welsh, Technical Sales Manager at Hamworthy Heating, explains how to best utilise heat pumps to their full potential and ensure they are operating effectively and efficiently for hot water production.

H

eating and hot water are significant contributors to a building’s carbon emissions. They create nearly a third of the total carbon emissions in the UK. Fortunately, the technology to generate hot water in commercial buildings in a more energy-efficient, renewable way is already available in the form of heat pumps.

Delivering up to 4 kWh of energy for every 1 kWh of electricity used to power it, an air source heat pump can be 300 to 400% more efficient than a boiler alone. But the benefits don’t end there. Once correctly installed by a qualified installer, with maintenance in line with the manufacturer’s recommendations, a heat pump could last between 10-25 years or more.

Heat pumps offer an energy-efficient way to produce hot water. Most heat pumps currently used in the UK are air source heat pumps (ASHPs). Air source heat pumps work by changing low-grade heat into useable heat by using a small amount of electrical energy. They transfer the ambient heat in the air outside of a building and move it inside, where, at a higher temperature it can then be used to maintain a supply of hot water.

Air source heat pumps are divided into two types: split and monobloc units. A split heat pump has both an outside unit incorporating the heat exchanger and compressor with pipework containing refrigerant connecting to the internal hydro box. A monobloc heat pump contains all the refrigerant components in the outdoor unit, leaving more space inside the property, making it easier to install and maintain.

With an air source heat pump, there are several factors that need to be taken into account to ensure the heat pump is performing efficiently when it comes to generating hot water.

Heat pumps offer an effective and efficient means of heating domestic water. The heated water is transferred to a hot water cylinder, much the same as with a conventional indirect hot water system.

However, therein lies a potential problem. As most heat pumps offer the highest efficiency at lower flow temperatures of 55°C, many heat pumps used for the storage of domestic hot water will need to be supplemented by another means of heating to raise the stored water temperature to 60°C, to prevent Legionella bacterial growth and associated health risks. >>

HEAT PUMPS EFFICIENCY

in such a way that it maximises heat pump contribution performance while taking temperature limitations into account.

Here, a simple yet effective solution would be to pre-heat the cold feed via a plate heat exchanger (PHE) heated by an air source heat pump.

For example, a 70kw ASHP connected to a suitably sized PHE would enable the system to pre-heat the cold feed to a 500 litre calorifier.

This would, in turn, lift the temperature to 45°C and mean that the secondary heat source would only need to manage a 15ºC temperature lift. This would also protect the heat pump from potential issues of being “back-fed” with higher DHW temperatures from other sources.

An example of this would be a recent Hamworthy Heating project that is currently underway at a school in the South of England. A Hamworthy 18kW Tyneham monobloc air source heat pump is the primary source.

It will be connected to a plate heat exchanger and the system will effectively preheat the cold feed to a Powerstock PS500 glass-lined calorifier. In addition, three vertically stacked Wessex Modumax MK3 condensing boilers have been specified to efficiently manage the temperature uplift.

Here, a possible option would be to employ a high-temperature heat pump that can produce heat between 60 and 80ºC by using a different refrigerant from a conventional model.

Another solution would be to deploy a bivalent (hybrid) approach with a secondary heat source via a gas boiler, electric boiler, immersion heater, etc to lift the DHW temperature. In this setup, the heat pump will run as much as possible where it can meet the demand. However, achieving an efficient hybrid hot water approach depends on harmoniously balancing the different system elements together to ensure they work with each other and not against.

Care must be given, as this can reverse heat the air source heat pump, via the indirect coil and cause the ASHP to switch off. In such applications, the boiler will take over. This can subsequently reduce carbon savings.

To overcome this challenge and find the most efficient solution, it’s advisable to take the time to design a system

With increasing awareness of our environmental impact, maximising energy efficiency plays a key role in achieving carbon savings. Whilst there is no doubt that heat pumps play a vital role in helping to reduce our carbon impact, when it comes to utilising them for the generation of efficient DHW, the system design and set-up might need some fine-tuning.

To meet this challenge and achieve real carbon savings, careful design factors need to be considered on how best to design a system in such a way that it maximises heat pump performance, particularly whilst taking these temperature limitations into account. n

COOLING F-GAS REGULATION

Navigating the changing refrigerant landscape Ryan Walton, Specification Engineer at Panasonic Heating & Cooling and chair of BESA’s Future Leaders Group looks at how F-Gas Regulation is transforming the refrigerant market and considers the technical aspects of working with alternative refrigerants.

T

he realm of refrigeration and air conditioning is in a state of constant evolution, spurred by ecological considerations and regulatory mandates. There is a growing emphasis on exploring alternative refrigerants as part of global initiatives to counteract the impacts of climate change.

Noteworthy manufacturers have taken a proactive stance, incorporating advanced technologies and environmentally conscious solutions into their array of offerings.

The F-Gas Regulation has a pivotal role in expediting market transformation, including increasing the imperative for engineers to update their qualifications and skills to ensure the safe handling of novel refrigerants.

For a considerable span, hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) have been widely employed as refrigerants due to their non-toxic nature, zero ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential), optimal boiling points, low toxicity, and limited flammability.

However, if released into the atmosphere, high Global Warming Potential (GWP) HFCs can contribute to global warming. As a response, alternative refrigerants, such as hydrocarbons (HCs), hydrofluoroolefins (HFOs), and natural refrigerants, have emerged as more environmentally responsible substitutes. These alternatives possess significantly lower GWP, playing a crucial role in steering the industry towards a more sustainable, carbon-conscious future.

The transition from HFCs to alternative refrigerants is underpinned by a dynamic blend of environmental awareness, regulatory enforcement, and technological innovation. While HFCs have demonstrated utility as refrigerants due to their favourable thermodynamic properties, the unintended consequence of their high GWP has galvanised a search for more benign alternatives.

Hydrocarbons, known for their heat transfer properties and low environmental impact, are a promising alternative.

Propane (R290) and isobutane (R600a) are among the hydrocarbons group, offering negligible GWP and zero ODP values. However, their flammability requires careful consideration of safety measures including product design, transport, installation, service and treatment at end-of-life. >>

COOLING F-GAS REGULATION

Hydrofluoroolefins (HFOs), a relatively recent addition to the refrigerant landscape, have gained prominence for their low GWP. HFOs represent a class of unsaturated HFCs, designed to mimic the properties of their predecessors while mitigating their environmental drawbacks. R1234yf and R1234ze are notable examples of HFOs that have garnered attention for their potential in various applications.

Natural refrigerants, such as carbon dioxide (R744), ammonia (R717), and hydrocarbons, draw from the earth’s natural resources and possess an intrinsic eco-friendliness.

These refrigerants have been employed historically and are making a resurgence due to their minimal environmental impact. While ammonia is an efficient refrigerant with high thermodynamic potential, its toxicity presents challenges in terms of safe handling. Carbon dioxide, on the other hand, has gained traction for its non-toxicity, non-flammability, and GWP of 1.

The revised F-Gas Regulation, instituted by the European Union on the 1st of January 2015, stands as a pivotal milestone in the endeavour to mitigate the environmental impact of fluorinated greenhouse gases. The F-Gas regulation introduced significant changes for the industry.

Firstly, how we measure F-Gas refrigerants, now discussed as C02 equivalent in tonnes (C02 – eq). This is to take into consideration the GWP value of each refrigerant (e.g. R290 = 3).

Secondly, the F-Gas Regulation enforces a phasedown of HFCs, progressively restricting their production and usage. This measure expedites the adoption of alternative

refrigerants. The allocation of HFC quotas to manufacturers and importers outlines a phasedown trajectory of 79% from 2015 to 2030, with current proposals in the EU looking at a 95% reduction by 2030. The outcome of these measures is a pressing demand for innovative equipment that employs low-GWP refrigerants, compelling manufacturers like Panasonic Heating & Cooling to pioneer the development of sustainable and forward-looking technologies.

F-Gas Regulation advocates for the recovery and reclamation of refrigerants. By embracing the principles of the circular economy and facilitating the correct recovery practices we can substantially reduce the release of HFCs into the atmosphere, thereby mitigating their contribution to the greenhouse effect. This approach also facilitates the reclamation of “old” refrigerants, transforming them into new virgin refrigerants for the base charge of novel systems. >>

As each milestone of the F-Gas phase down, the refrigeration and air conditioning industry faces challenges. With further trials arising with the current EU proposal, the UK market is currently facing uncertain times.

In conclusion, the evolution of the refrigeration and air conditioning industry is characterised by a monumental shift towards alternative refrigerants driven by environmental concerns and regulatory imperatives.

With the advent of new regulations and the rapid integration of alternative refrigerants, the role of engineers has assumed heightened significance.

The journey from conventional HFCs to environmentally friendly alternatives like hydrocarbons, hydrofluoroolefins, and natural refrigerants signifies a remarkable transformation aimed at reducing the industry’s carbon footprint and mitigating climate change.

Although these alternative refrigerants possess lower GWP values, many of them exhibit flammability, high running pressures, and toxicity, necessitating cautious handling, installation, and maintenance to ensure the safety of both engineers and end-users. As high-GWP refrigerants are phased out, the transition to new, environmentally friendly alternatives demands specialised expertise and continuous training for engineers.

Professionals engaged in the refrigeration and air conditioning sector must remain attuned to shifting technologies, safety protocols, and emerging best practices. Ongoing professional development initiatives and training sessions play an instrumental role in enhancing qualifications and competencies.

Recognising this imperative, Panasonic Heating & Cooling places great importance on supporting engineers in their pursuit of knowledge, offering comprehensive training programmes across the UK to empower them with the skills required for the safe handling of contemporary refrigerants.

The integration of alternative refrigerants is well underway across refrigerant-based systems for the majority of manufacturers. Amidst this evolution, as discussed previously, engineers assume a pivotal role as key participants in this transformative journey. Their expertise in efficient system design, secure handling of new refrigerants, and adept installation ensures the realisation of an ecofriendly and enduringly sustainable industry future.

With the unwavering support of industry manufacturers, engineers are poised to stay well-informed and well-equipped to embrace the challenges and prospects presented by the evolving landscape of refrigeration and air conditioning.

VENTILATION ACCESS PANELS

The importance of the correct access panels Richard Crews, Training Manager for Swiftclean, explains why sufficient access points are vital for access, cleaning and maintenance in commercial and residential ductwork systems.

A

ccess panel sizes are standard across the industry and are either circular or square/ rectangular. Where a standard access door does not fit a duct design, a removable panel made from sheet metal may be installed. This is not always ideal, but it enables access for maintenance.

When it comes to commercial ductwork systems, adequately sized access panels are essential to the cleaning and maintenance of the systems. Designers and contractors alike must be aware of the recommended sizes, and these should be given the appropriate considerations and approvals before deviating from them.

Designers and contractors must pay particular attention to the location of access panels when designing systems.

Specifications should clearly state the type of panels required, the sizes and the locations.

Contractors should make sure that panels are installed at the intervals recommended by the guideline. This will help ensure the ductwork is accessible for regular cleaning and maintenance.

Additionally, designers and contractors should consider man-loading. This is especially true when dealing with large ductwork, which requires man-access to the interior of the duct. The responsibility of designing and fitting the bracketry will often fall to the ductwork contractor. This, in turn, means that access panels, or doors of a substantial size to facilitate man entry, must be fitted to ensure safe access and egress.

According to the BESA publication DW144 – Specification for Sheet Metal Ductwork, access panels should be placed next to in-line equipment that requires frequent maintenance or intermittent access. These panels should only allow hand and/ or arm access, while the system designer should specify the size and location for larger openings. It is standard practice to include access panels for inspecting and servicing plant and equipment. >>

VENTILATION ACCESS PANELS

The door is then able to be placed within the frame, and, using the cam levers, locked into place. Additional methods of securing a door, such as a chain attachment, may be manufactured.

These are particularly useful when an access door is fitted at height, to prevent it from falling.

Intumescent seals on the access door help to create a seal to avoid any unwanted draughts, as well as to expand in the event of a fire, preventing the spread of fire and smoke.

In many cases, when a maintenance contractor attends the site to maintain or clean ductwork, they find that access may not be sufficient for the process. For example, we often come across a site when access has been installed for inspection only (small-sized access door sizes, spread thinly), which wouldn’t facilitate a full system clean.

To ensure safety, the panel and frame should not have sharp edges.

It is recommended that access panels are fitted on the side of the duct, at least 10mm above the base, to minimise the risk of grease leakage. However, in some situations, access panels can be installed on the top or underside of the duct for accessibility. It is important to consider accessibility when choosing the location. If access panels are fitted to the bottom of the duct, extra attention should be given to ensure a leak-free fit.

An access door must be in an accessible position, ideally on the side of ductwork, as it’s likely to be used on a regular basis for cleaning. According to BESA publication TR19® Grease – Specification for Fire Risk Management within Kitchen Extraction Systems, access doors should be fitted at a minimum distance of two metres apart to enable hand cleaning, whilst also preserving the integrity of the duct.

When cleaning, it’s best to label access panels for easy identification. Only remove a few panels at a time. The cleaning contractor is responsible for replacing all panels properly after cleaning. It is recommended that the removed panels are kept in a secure area, such as on top of the duct, above the access point, to make it easier to refit them post-cleaning. >>

If the person enters the duct they must have the correct confined space training and work in accordance with the risk assessment. In addition, there must be a minimum of two access doors (one for access and one for egress), which also helps with ventilation when in the ductwork.

Access can be cut by the engineer using a nibbler, snips, or other sheet metal cutting equipment.

Once this has been carried out, the access door frames, which are comprised of tabs, are folded over by hand and then crimped to the ductwork itself.

“

When it comes to access panels, designers/specifiers and contractors should pay extra attention to ensure they are meeting the requirements stated in TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems, and TR19® for ventilation systems.

”

Thought needs to be taken when purchasing and selecting access doors. It’s important to select DW144-compliant duct access panels. Swiftclean uses panels manufactured in the UK, perfect for facilitating duct cleaning, sealing and internal inspection in accordance with TR19® Grease and TR19® Guide to Good practice for the Internal Cleanliness of Ventilation Systems.

On the market, there is a wide variety of doors available that can either be square or circular in shape to match the ductwork. These doors are made from different materials, and some have a higher fire rating than others. If the door is installed in a fire-rated duct, we recommend you receive prior agreement from the client for this, as it must be certified by a qualified individual for fire resistance.

It is crucial to ensure that the fire-rated ductwork’s fire integrity is maintained. To achieve this, it’s recommended to consult the manufacturer or a specialist fire protection adviser and follow their suggestions as deemed fit. The client’s appointed competent person will be responsible for re-certifying the fire resistance, including integrity and insulation.

Other points to take into consideration when selecting the correct access door include: • Make sure the access door is suitable for the purpose (whether that be cleaning, inspection or both).

• Are there any building modifications and current uses that may restrict access?

• The location and number of system components requiring access.

• The method of cleaning employed – such as arm’s reach, man-entry or mechanical brushing.

• Access panels should be as large as the duct size permits, without weakening the structure of the system.

• Openings must not be obstructed by other building services.

In conclusion, when it comes to access panels, designers/ specifiers and contractors should pay extra attention to ensure they are meeting the requirements stated in TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems, and TR19® for ventilation systems.

Proper consideration of these requirements will result in the installation of access panels of the correct sizes in the right locations, providing the right accessibility for cleaning and maintenance and, ultimately, ensuring a system compliant with the industry guidelines. n

VENTILATION INDOOR CLIMATE

Local demand control - the best route to energy saving

Lindab National Sales Manager, Andy Watton highlights why energy savings should support a good indoor climate.

S

ince the recent spike in energy costs, reducing energy consumption in buildings has been high on the agenda for everyone. Given that buildings account for 40% of total energy consumption in the EU, the provision of energy efficient ventilation whilst maintaining a high-quality indoor air climate is more important than ever before.

Some countries have chosen to enforce change and in October the decision was taken in Denmark, for instance, to recommend that the winter temperature in public buildings should be reduced to 19°C in order to reduce energy demand for heating.

We know that the HVAC system accounts for a significant part of the energy consumption in commercial buildings, so of course it’s a good idea to look at energy reduction measures. However, is simply turning down the thermostat the solution to the problem? Or does it create further unexpected issues?

We need to take a holistic approach and look at this from the user’s perspective.

Taking schools as an example, if we lower the thermal indoor climate then those

schools already suffering from a poor indoor climate will see further degradation resulting in a major overall loss in children’s learning capacity.

Poor indoor air quality and discomfort are a dangerous combination and together can reduce learning by a large percentage. A comprehensive UK-based study of over 3700 pupils shows that, along with lighting, temperature and air quality have the biggest impact on pupil attention and retention with poor indoor climate reducing learning by up to 16%1. >>

productivity and people’s cognitive skills. Additionally, as airflow rates drop the air becomes more humid, which could lead to dampness and mould problems. Reducing the temperature as well as the flow can exacerbate this and in Denmark, several articles have been written suggesting this is in fact what is occurring3.

Figure 1: Relative productivity versus room temperature from Seppän et. al., based on several studies2

Outside of the classroom, several empirical studies show that there is a direct correlation between room temperature and productivity. For example, a respected study shows that productivity decreases when the temperature is below 21°C and above 23°C, (as shown in Figure 1). According to the study, productivity is reduced by approximately 2% when the temperature is lowered from 22°C to 19°C. Other studies show that the reduction can be as much as 5-8% when the temperature is reduced to 19°C, as shown in Figure 2, which summarises several studies and demonstrates a significant drop in productivity at 19°C. If reducing temperature is not ideal, what about reducing airflow in the HEVAC system as a method to reduce energy consumption? Given the recent example of COVID, it is clearly not a good idea to reduce the fresh air exchange rate in a building. It has also been well-documented that poor indoor air quality also results in a negative impact on

In general, the desire for a lower heating demand – and a reduction in the room temperature heating setpoint – could lead to an inappropriate increase in energy consumption for ventilation and air conditioning.

To avoid this happening, it is necessary to consider the interaction between the different HVAC installations and their use.

“

Adopting a localised demandcontrolled approach to ventilation allows rooms to effectively be switched off when not in use or to supply conditioned air at rates dependent on occupancy levels, air quality, temperature, or a combination of all three.

One scenario could be that the general room temperature setpoint in the building is reduced to 19°C. If the building has large internal heat sources and/or solar heat gains, this could create a natural surplus of heat at times, which would result in the activation of other parts of the HVAC systems.

This will mean additional ventilation requirements. For air conditioning, it may mean activation of cooling even in the winter months.

”

So how do we reduce energy demand whilst maintaining a good indoor air climate? Most existing HEVAC systems run on an “entire building” approach, providing conditioned air to all parts of the building at the rates laid down in the original building design. These rates take no consideration of factors such as occupancy, heat loads or local air quality.

conditioned air at rates dependent on occupancy levels, air quality, temperature, or a combination of all three.

This is achievable with today’s control technologies. For example, Lindab’s Ultra BT VAV controller can use ultrasound to measure and control airflow down to minimal flow rates.

Combined with local wireless sensors and set via Bluetooth and a phone app, these intelligent devices provide a simple retrofit solution to provide localised demand control and reduced energy costs without sacrificing indoor air quality or reducing the thermal setpoint.

Modern control systems provide a flexible solution that can be used, for example, in energy efficiency renovations.

One case study using Ultra BT for a renovation project demonstrated that energy consumption in buildings with traditional ventilation can be reduced by 68% without reducing the room temperature to 19°C. The renovation is beneficial in terms of indoor climate, energy consumption and return on investment.

This localised control approach is ideal for retrofit into older buildings that perhaps do not have existing BMS systems.

Utilising WiFi and Bluetooth to communicate, these products minimise installation disruption and provide a level of local ventilation control, energy saving and adaptability unavailable from previous technologies. Being wireless also means that rooms can be upgraded ad hoc as demand dictates, so no large capital outlay in one hit.

Local ultrasonic measurement provides a precise airflow measurement methodology, which takes into account local turbulence negating the need for long straight duct runs to establish a laminar flow before the device. Instead, the system corrects for the turbulence, enabling them to be fitted into tighter spaces allowing opportunities for local control where this was previously impractical.

So rather than turning down the thermostat or reducing overall building airflow let’s take a closer look at where the demand is and satisfy that demand only when called for and not on a 24/7 basis. It is common sense really, and now thanks to innovative devices and the use of readily-available technology, a cost effective offthe-shelf simple retrofit solution is achievable. n

VENTILATION COMPETENCE

Specifying competence – don’t fall on your FACE Martin Whiteley, Managing Director of Roperhurst explains what clients should be looking for when assessing the specialist contractors they are considering appointing to their projects with a clear focus on specific technical competence and training.

R

operhurst has been fabricating and installing plastic fume extract ductwork for nearly 50 years, and never cease to be amazed at the level of incompetence we see as we go about our business. So, with the Building Safety Act turning the spotlight onto technical and professional competence across all the construction industry’s specialist trades, it seems of fundamental importance that clients can take certain steps to ensure they appoint the right specialist firm for their projects.

A good starting point is to always think ‘FACE’.

Financial: Does the contractor you wish to appoint have the financial resources to complete the project? You should compare the contract value to the net worth of the firm – what multiple would raise a red flag?

Assurance: What third party evidence is available to back up your decision to appoint them? For example, are

they a BESA member? What health & safety certification do they hold? And what about insurance?

Is the contractor’s cover greater than the contract value? Also, what about training records – ask to see them because you need to be sure you are choosing an organisation that employs competent people and keeps investing in their training so that their skills remain relevant and up to date.

Capacity: Can they physically complete the job?

Considering the size and scale of ductwork projects is the firm physically large enough and does it have access to sufficient resources? Should you visit to see for yourself?

What other commitments might they already have at the time you want the job done?

Experience: Can they reference projects of a similar value and size? It might be worth talking to other clients about their experience of the firm.

Safety critical

You need appoint a thirdparty assessed specialist firm particularly if your project is safety critical. Ductwork is a good example of how complexity can sometimes confuse the process – and as plastic ductwork is my specialist topic, forgive me if I use that as my ‘starter for ten’ to illustrate the point. >>

“

The first thing a client should consider is whether the contractor they are considering appointing is actually going to carry out the hands-on work you are specifying – or are they likely to sub-contract?

VENTILATION COMPETENCE

It is also a very broad church, ranging from domestic bathroom extract to industrial fume extract, so is a good example of a sector where it is crucial that the client is clear about what type of expertise they are looking for which means they must understand what they are specifying.

The base definition, widely accepted for ‘competence’ is that it is a blend of: • Knowledge • Ability • Experience Knowledge requires a skilled workforce working for a company well-versed in the appropriate industry standards.

Ability is a factor both of staff and infrastructure. It’s about scale, specialist machinery, training, and capacity. It’s about asking the right questions, visiting supply chain partners, and carrying out the required level of due diligence.

Experience is important too because it implies track record and a long-term commitment both to your ‘trade’ and the process of achieving competence.

The first thing a client should consider is whether the contractor they are considering appointing is actually going to carry out the hands-on work you are specifying – or are they likely to sub-contract? That is not always clear when an appointment is made, but the current furore surrounding building safety has brought this issue into sharp focus.

The newly in force Building Safety Act makes it crystal clear that the client bears ultimate responsibility if they appoint

someone to carry out a job for which they are not qualified – if they are not ‘competent’ to complete their specific task.

This does not mean it is always a problem if the work is sub-contracted because the firm used might be perfectly competent, but it should be checked. Ultimately, the appointed or primary contractor will still be responsible for the quality of the work carried out by its supply chain – and, therefore, in the event of a problem that leaves the client exposed, any future legal action will focus on the decisionmaking process.

So, when a company says it is a specialist? Is it really?

For example, some metal ductwork installers say they can install plastic ducting because ductwork often gets awarded as a package, and they don’t want to miss out. Can they manufacture plastic ductwork? Possibly. Can they install plastic ductwork? Well again, it depends on the complexity – so that needs to be clarified before the prospective client goes any further.

Just to add to the potential confusion, there are in fact three specialisms in the plastic ductwork sector: • Domestic plastic ductwork • Industrial (DW154) fume extract ductwork fabrication • Industrial (DW154) fume extract ductwork installation Are the engineers working on your project competent in one or all of these specialist areas?

Or have you just employed a general ductwork firm? And for ductwork, read all the other specialisms across this great and varied industry of ours. >>

VENTILATION COMPETENCE

What can we expect?

For our specialism it would be reasonable to expect ductwork NVQ holders to have the skills to install bracketry (provided they know that the rules in DW154 are not the same as DW144), but their training is unlikely to have given them any grounding in how to join the ductwork properly.

Again, this is an example of where a truly specialist firm will have taken steps to plug skills gaps.

Leakage is a hazard to health and in the most extreme circumstances could be fatal. Correct jointing of DW154 fume extract ductwork is therefore safety critical.

Are you competent?

Roperhurst is committed to having a fully competent ‘specialist’ workforce, so we are continually working towards updating the competence assessment of each of our individual engineers. For the peace of mind of clients, that should also be the case for all specialist firms operating across the building services industry.

This is what the new CSCS skill card process is seeking to enshrine, and which is reflected in the many new specialist cards being assessed and developed by BESA’s Engineering Services SKILLcard scheme. The new cards are designed to ensure people have the right, updated skills for the specific job they are being employed to do on building sites.

Assuming no flanges, PVCu must be jointed using either solvent welding or hot air welding techniques, and PPs is hot air welding only. Compliant preparation of the materials, as well as competence with a plastic welding torch, require specialist knowledge and experience.

A plastic welding NVQ, together with training and experience of ductwork installation, is most definitely the right path. But if you choose this route, you will face significant challenges. It took us 10 false starts and three years to find a college willing to work in our industry.

This surely cannot be what CSCS intended with these changes, but because our industry is so niche there are neither the assessors available to properly assess a candidate, nor the critical mass to justify a training organisation running the course.

The Building Safety Act is focused on both ‘organisational’ and ‘individual’ competence – so you can’t hide behind one or the other and, while self-certification has always been an important part of how our industry operates, it has never been entirely satisfactory as it often leads to dangerous assumptions.

The only way that we have been able to address this is by training our own assessors, and then partnering with a college to run the course. The upshot will be that our team will have NVQs in plastic welding, to complement the existing necessary training, skills, and experience to fabricate and install plastic fume extract ductwork to DW154.

In years gone by, an employer was permitted to verify the competence of their staff on CSCS applications. Whilst a competent employer validating a competent employee wasn’t an issue, an incompetent employer validating an incompetent employee certainly was, and this has been a driver for welcome change.

Hopefully, this will have given readers a flavour of the often complex process of ensuring that the firms they use are competent, particularly for safety critical works. The current process for establishing competence is not perfect but it is definitely improving and BESA is very much in the vanguard of driving forward more rigorous competence assessment.

The Blue Skilled Worker card now requires:

The new push to improve the safety culture in construction is also helping us develop improved assessment processes across the building services sector, and clients can also help (and help themselves) by ensuring they ask the right questions. n

• Modern Apprentice with relevant Apprenticeship Standard/NVQ/SVQ; or • Skilled worker with relevant Apprenticeship Standard/ NVQ/SVQ; or • Skilled worker with an informal apprenticeship and a City and Guilds craft certificate appropriate to your trade The Blue Experienced Worker card is for those who have no formal industry qualifications and are therefore working towards a relevant NVQ/SVQ L2 or higher. “Working towards” requires that the individual, “be enrolled/registered with an assessment centre.”

The role of insulation in sustainable HVAC design

Will Wigfield, Product Manager - Fire Protection & HVAC at Rockwool UK, explores how insulation forms part of a truly sustainable HVAC strategy.

W

ith around 40% of UK carbon emissions linked to the built environment1 and heating, cooling and domestic hot water accounting for around 80% of the energy consumed in residential buildings in the EU2, there is an evident need for more sustainable approaches to HVAC. Likewise, the increased adoption of green certification schemes such as LEED, NABERS and BREEAM in UK building projects, as well as the crippling costs of energy both residentially and commercially, means building services engineers are increasingly faced with the challenge of developing HVAC systems that optimise energy performance.

While there are several strategies for achieving a sustainable HVAC design, which will also be dictated and shaped by the building’s age, construction and use, there are guiding principles that building services engineers should consider, especially when it comes to insulation.

Naturally, an HVAC strategy will comprise active and passive measures, with heating and cooling technologies working

126 | The BESA Book 2024

alongside more architectural principles and building materials.

However, in our collective drive to design and construct buildings that minimise carbon emissions, it’s important to remember: the cheapest, cleanest, safest energy is the energy we don’t use.

By using effective insulation to maintain correct operating temperatures of HVAC systems, building owners can reduce energy consumption and operating costs while, in turn, maintaining comfortable environments for users.

However, ‘effective’ insulation as part of a truly sustainable HVAC design is multi-pronged going beyond solely asdesigned thermal performance. Consistency and yearon-year performance for long-term energy efficiency and selecting responsible manufacturers and products with proven credentials are just some of the other variables that must be considered.

The thermal insulation of HVAC applications is fundamental to a sustainable HVAC strategy. Published in 1977, BS 5422 was then titled Specification for the use of thermal insulating materials and offered guidance on insulating metallic surfaces in domestic and industrial applications.

HVAC INSULATION

First updated in 1990 and subsequently 2001 and 2009, the title of BS 5422 eventually changed to, Methods for specifying thermal insulating materials for pipes, tanks, vessels, ductwork and equipment operating within the temperature range – 40°C to +700°C. Originally concerned with specifying insulation thicknesses based on economic payback, BS 5422 has rightly evolved with CO2 emissions also becoming an important factor.

BS 5422:2023 came into force in June 2023, setting minimum performance standards for the insulation of pipework, ductwork and equipment as well as taking into account environmental, economic and safety considerations.

Its first update since 2009, the guidance includes practical changes such as simplified performance tables that now specify pipe diameters as inequalities, reducing the need for interpolation. The update also removes higher thermal conductivity values for obsolete or rarely used insulation materials, instead focusing on the most used insulation materials at the time of revision.

To optimise thermal performance, BS 5422:2023 stresses the importance of reducing thermal bridging to achieve the full benefits of insulated building services by using load-bearing insulation between the pipes and any support or fittings to avoid a gap in the insulation caused by compression of the material. The 2023 update also introduces optional ‘enhanced’ thermal performance levels, which for the first time, guides specifiers who would like to exceed minimum standards.

“

While the environmental impact of a building and in turn, its HVAC strategy is critical, it is paramount that whatever approach is implemented, it does not compromise on occupant and building safety. .

”

Alongside these updates that help to raise the bar for asdesigned and installed thermal levels, there is also a critical update to BS 5422 when it comes to sustainable HVAC design longer-term: “Additional allowances shall be made to confirm that the specified performance is achieved where system inefficiencies are created through the ageing of the product.” >>

The BESA Book 2024 | 127

HVAC INSULATION

This change within BS 5422 signals the importance of longevity of the products and systems as a principle of sustainable HVAC design and is symptomatic of a wider strategic push by UK Government to longer-term, post-occupancy performance, as witnessed in recent updates to Approved Document L and drafts of the Future Homes Standard.

For insulation, this focus on longevity is key as insulation types can vary in terms of their in-situ performance and ongoing durability. Ultimately, pockets of trapped air or gas within insulation products prevent heat transfer, therefore to be effective in whichever form it takes, dimensional stability is vital; squashed and sagging insulation affects performance.

Practically, this means specifying insulation that’s going to keep its strength and, in turn, its thermal performance.

Stone wool is ideal for this as it maintains its shape and density over time. Additionally, the thermal properties of stone wool, such as Rockwool for example, are derived from pockets of trapped air, with no reliance on blown-in hydrocarbon gases that can seep out over time. In tests on materials from real-life construction sites, for example, it has been shown to retain its insulating properties for more than 65 years3 without a drop in performance.

An additional strand of a sustainable HVAC strategy is partnering with manufacturers that minimise their operational footprint both through the products they manufacture and the embodied carbon generated in their production.

Stone wool insulation supports this process as, alongside being derived from volcanic rock, one of the world’s most abundant materials, it can be recycled indefinitely.

Leading stone wool insulation also contains, on average, 25% non-virgin material, utilising waste streams such as slag from the steel industry. Some manufacturers also allow off cuts to be returned for reprocessing.

To understand the impact of the products and suppliers they are working with, specifiers should be examining Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) based on Life Cycle Assessments to assess and quantify the environmental impacts, resources and energy use throughout a product’s lifecycle, from the extraction of raw materials to end of life. This standardised format helps specifiers to evaluate environmental impact objectively, making more informed decisions.

While the environmental impact of a building and in turn, its HVAC strategy is critical, it is paramount that whatever approach is implemented, it does not compromise on occupant and building safety.

Another important change to BS 5422:2023 is the move from the national fire classification of insulation materials to the European system, aligning with current building regulations and relevant harmonised product standards for HVAC insulation.

www.theBESA.com

@BESAGroup

BESA Group

According to the British Standards Institution (BSI), Euroclass Reaction to Fire gives a more comprehensive and clear definition of the behaviour of materials exposed to fire than the more limited legacy BS 476.

The Euroclass system determines a product’s fire performance by measuring a comprehensive set of characteristics, including ignitability, flame spread, heat release, smoke production and propensity for producing flaming droplets/particles. The classifications run from A1 to F, with products achieving A1 and A2-s1, d0 typically defined as non-combustible. The appendices ‘s’ and ‘d’ respectively indicate emitted levels of smoke and flaming droplets.

In BS 5422:2023, specifiers are cautioned to pay special attention to the fire performance of insulation materials: “In the event of a fire some insulation systems can generate appreciable quantities of smoke and toxic fumes.

Consideration should be given to the choice of materials bearing in mind their location, e.g., enclosed areas or adjacent to air ducts through which the smoke or fumes may spread.”

As well as providing thermal performance, insulation materials like stone wool are naturally non-combustible, meaning they do not burn, contribute to fire spread and or produce any significant toxic smoke. By delivering multiple benefits, stone wool insulation supports specifiers in taking a holistic approach to HVAC systems, combining long-term energy performance without compromising on safety and comfort. n References

FIRE SAFETY COMPLIANCE

Fire Resisting Ductwork: Simple Yet Complex

Fire resisting ductwork may seem like a simple product, but ensuring it provides the correct performance and protection can be complex. Darren Webster, Technical Manager of Firesafe Fire Rated Ductwork and Chair of the ASFP TG6 Committee, explains.

Confused yet? You will be when you must consider whether insulation is required and what performance is needed to cater for breaching 30-, 60- or 120-minute barriers or, as is often the case, a combination of these periods. We haven’t even mentioned dual-purpose systems which provide general ventilation in non-fire conditions but are designed to then become part of a smoke control system in the event of a fire.

F

ire resisting ductwork is fundamentally different to any other passive fire system. This is because it must pass through not just a single barrier but, more often than not, through multiple barriers to exit the building and reach atmosphere. It does not form a barrier at the wall or floor; quite the reverse because part of its raison d’etre is to maintain the opening.

Fire dampers, fire doors, fire curtains (et al) close and create a physical seal between one side of the fire separating element and the other. So it is only necessary to consider fire conditions on either side for these ‘seal’ type passive fire systems. This is not the case with fire resisting ductwork. It demands consideration in each compartment, both from inside and outside of the duct and along its entire route against each compartment it serves.

To add to the complication, fire resisting ductwork has openings within the system to ventilate areas as part of its purpose, thus presenting a route for fire and smoke.

These openings clearly need to close in the event of fire to maintain compartmentation. This is achieved by installing fire dampers at some point in the route. However, if it’s a smoke control system, there will be some openings that are required to open in certain fire conditions and close in other fire conditions.

www.theBESA.com

@BESAGroup

BESA Group

Penetration seals of the fire resisting ductwork pose further problems as they are a critical and intrinsic element of the product Support systems testing. They must not be viewed are critical elements as a separate component to which must be be provided by others. Although correctly specified traditionally the construction market has looked to separate these works, this, unfortunately, increases the likelihood that an alternative (sub-optimal) method of forming the penetration seal will be employed.

Best practice dictates that following selection of a particular manufacturer’s product, all penetration seals of the ductwork system should be installed as that specific product.

Neglecting to do so could potentially lead to a failure of the compartmentation.

Another - equally important - consideration which causes many issues in the installation of fire resisting ductwork systems is how they should be properly supported. Their performance relies on correctly specified supports to maintain stability in a fire condition. It is therefore critical that the structure along the entire route of the system has a load-bearing, fire resisting performance at least equal to the ductwork and is constructed from a substrate suitable to allow direct fixing of these support systems.

Fire resisting ductwork should be perceived as an extension to any compartment wall or floor through which it passes as it continues its course throughout the building.

The simplest system is a kitchen extract, as it only extracts air from a single compartment. >>

FIRE SAFETY COMPLIANCE

Another aspect which frequently causes confusion is the definition of a fireseparating element; and whether it is to provide compartmentation or more simply to protect a ‘means of escape’.

Compartments require complete separation and must protect against the possible spread of fire and smoke between them.

The protection of means of escape routes can allow different spaces to be connected, provided they are within the same compartment and are part of a same-purpose group.

Fire strategy documentation should clearly indicate the purpose of any fire barriers required in a project to allow the ventilation design to be developed.

A Smoke Extract system exiting onto the roof

The ideal scenario is that the ductwork route continues until it exits the building, usually onto the roof. Wherever this is not possible, there must be a plantroom - with equivalent fire protection - to house the extract fan and prevent further spread of fire; as the kitchen is effectively connected to this plant space.

Smoke extraction systems are usually more complex. They normally serve multiple compartments and therefore must be designed to include smoke control dampers that are operated by the fire cause-and-effect control system. It controls the opening and closing of the dampers to correspond with the fire scenarios envisaged for the specific building.

A fundamental point to consider for smoke extraction is that, although the system may only be required to suit a condition of 300°C for 1 or 2 hours - as required by Building Regulations, the compartmentation of the building must also be maintained.

This will require the fire resisting ductwork performance to meet the full fire conditions, especially when considering the fire insulation performance. Adding this to the restriction allowing only a maximum size of 1250mm wide x 1000mm high, set by the European Standards which must be used for smoke control systems, then matters really do become complicated.

There is an answer, thankfully.

As soon as the fire strategy for a project has been determined it is essential to make early engagement with the product manufacturers.

They will be able to assist and review in detail the specific requirements to achieve an effective overall strategy.

Co-ordination is key to a successful design. Architects, main contractors, mechanical services contractors, structural engineers, fire consultants and product manufacturers all have an important role to play. Collaboration is needed to select the most appropriate route, agree the system and components specification - including surrounding structural elements for the support fixings - and wall and / or floor details to ensure penetration details are compliant. >>

FIRE SAFETY COMPLIANCE

Modern methods of construction (MMC) have introduced a myriad of options, so full co-operation between all relevant parties is crucial to ensure every aspect is properly considered and selected accordingly.

Freely available services have been developed within the passive fire protection industry to aid this process.

One particular entity which is actively detailing methods specifically for fire protection systems is the Passive Fire Knowledge Group (PFKG).

When details of the whole system have finally been agreed upon, the next vital step is to programme the sequence of works. Aside from those projects where exposed ductwork is an intentional design feature, it is mostly a ‘hidden service’. As such it is often located in quite restricted spaces and therefore its installation must be conducted in strict order.

Expert advice and valuable technical data is freely available

The physical size of ductwork and its support system can be considerable; usually larger than most people envisage.

So be aware that without this premeditated control of installation, sufficient access to install penetrations seals and insulation (if specified) can be denied by the duct itself.

Evidence of the correct installation should be built-up during this process for the record, since access is sometimes impossible after completion. Full records will also be needed for future inspections, maintenance, potential refurbishment works or even change of building use.

No single person has all the required knowledge, understanding and competence. We all truly need to work together to provide the safest of buildings which we so proudly construct. n

PIPEWORK VALVES

Take the pressure off water and energy David Rhodes, Technical Manager at Albion Valves (UK) Ltd, explains the urgent need to design for water and energy efficiency – and highlights pressure reducing valves (PRVs) as part of a cost-effective technology to save these critical resources.

O

ver the past twenty years, building services engineers and contractors have focused on reducing energy consumption in the design and operation of HVAC systems. Legislation such as Part L of the Building Regulations and Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES) are just two of the drivers setting targets on carbon emissions and energy use in all buildings.

A 2022 UK government study into proposals for water efficiency labelling highlighted showers, toilets and kitchen and bathroom taps as significant water users in households and other buildings. PRVs can be applied to reduce water pressure, helping regulate water volumes and reducing water waste when outlets are in full flow. It may seem like a small step, but controlling water pressure this way can save significant amounts.

Now, there is a second factor in the spotlight for savings and efficiency: water. In Northern Europe’s hotter summers, droughts are a growing cause for concern. The UK uses around 14 billion litres of water per day, but the government estimates that this will rise to 18 billion litres by 2050. We must reduce that figure to prevent severe shortages in the next decade.

Take a tap outlet which is open for five minutes at 5 bar.

It will pass around 15l to 20l per minute. However, if a PRV is applied to reduce the pressure to 3 bar, the volume of water from the tap drops to 12l to 15l over the same period, a saving of 25%. This works well in domestic settings, but if we extrapolate that to washroom sinks around a typical office building, it is easy to see why PRVs are invaluable for helping to reduce water waste.

The government published its Plan for Water in April 2023, outlining how it will tackle rising demand and the hazard of future droughts. It wants to reduce water use per head of population by 20% by 2030. This means cutting water usage in homes and other buildings. One proposal in the Plan for Water is to expand the EPC (Energy Performance Certificate) issued to domestic and commercial buildings to include a grade for water efficiency.

PRVs also play an important role within tall buildings, where the design intent for water distribution around the building can vary; these systems will often include booster sets.

With the government seeking to cut water consumption along with ever-tighter energy targets, it’s clear that engineers and installers must be ready with measures to help achieve both. In addition, transporting water around a building can be an energy-hungry process, so technologies that can make that process more efficient while reducing water waste should be high on people’s agenda.

Pressure reducing valves (PRVs) are an integral part of a balanced system to achieve energy efficiencies within buildings and ensure the effective distribution of pressurised water. When used with hydronic valves, it is possible to attain the maximum cost-effective usage in distributing water within a system.

The building distribution system is typically divided into risers and branches. With risers, the geodetic height must be overcome, and the water distributed to the different floors. The branches will then distribute the water to each of the terminal points. >>

PIPEWORK VALVES

This type of PRV can provide accurate control because the pilot valve is significantly smaller than the main valve, so it responds very quickly to minor variations in upstream load.

With the addition of a trim to control the response time of the valve, the main valve has a lower proportional offset and therefore delivers a more constant downstream pressure.

Water shortages in the UK are a pressing issue affecting us all. Research from Kingfisher (owner of Screwfix) carried out in April 2023 shows that seven regions in England face ‘severe water stress’ by 2030. The government’s Plan for Water suggests that it won’t be too long before planners demand that new developments are ‘Water Neutral’ and Carbon Neutral.

These branches often form part of a main branch, thus creating zones. To equalise the pressures throughout these zones, pressure reducing valves are essential.

Although they are simple in principle, PRVs must be specified correctly, based on flow and pressure, to make the most of their benefits. Therefore, avoiding selecting a PRV based solely on the line size is essential. Instead, the specifier should size a PRV to obtain a flow velocity across the seat between 1m/s and 2m/s for domestic applications.

Specifiers should always check the manufacturer’s technical documentation, such as cavitation charts and/or flow volume charts (provided with Albion’s PRV range).

Cavitation charts are important to determine the pressure reducing capabilities of the valve. A general rule is to reduce the pressure by no more than 3:1 in a single stage. In addition, using the flow volume charts will aid the size selection of the valve.

Correct sizing is vital to optimise performance and avoid damage to the valve. For example, a PRV which is too large will continually operate nearer to its ‘shut’ position, leading to erosion of the seat and eventual failure. On the other hand, if the valve is too small, then the volume of water rushing across the seat will cause unwanted noise, such as hammering.

There are two main types of PRV: direct acting and pilot operated. Both are designed using a pressure-loaded diaphragm, and selection depends on project requirements.

For example, direct acting PRVs are best used for small loads.

We see them widely applied on individual or small numbers of terminal units, such as apartments where taps, showers and baths are distributed throughout the property.

They generally have a compact size with a low price point and are simple to install. However, because of their size, they have a relatively low flow capacity and a higher proportional offset, or variation, from the set pressure.

Pilot operated PRVs are used for larger loads where close pressure control is required. They are often found in commercial or multi-residential properties, industrial buildings, and distribution systems.

WATER TREATMENT CORROSION

Chemical-free water treatment to meet VDI 2035 requirements

David J Whitfield, Managing Director of IWTM UK, and contributor to CIBSE’s Code of Practice on Heat Networks, explains the principles behind the VDI 2035 chemical-free approach to water treatment with demineralised water and electrochemistry.

A

big change included in CIBSE’s revised Code of Practice on Heat Networks (CP1 2020) is the inclusion of chemical-free water treatment as per VDI 2035 Part 1 (now combined with Part 2).

VDI 2035: Part 1 Prevention of damage in water heating installations, is published by the Association of German Engineers. It sets out how corrosion in closed loops, where the flow temperature is not intended to exceed 100˚C, can be prevented without the use of inhibitors or biocides. It is a process adopted by many HVAC manufacturers and referenced in their manuals and warranty documents.

VDI 2035 is based on the principles of chemical-free water treatment. This includes the use of ion exchange resins for fill water and electrochemistry to maintain the system in a non-corrosive state. These technologies can be used to provide chemical-free treatment for closed loops and offer results beyond VDI 2035, making the standard easier to achieve and maintain.

Corrosion occurs in hydronic systems when they are filled and maintained with raw fill water. This contains minerals, salts and gases that can react with the metal components in the system. The reaction can lead to the formation of sludge deposits, limescale and rust. The greater the volume of water, the greater the quantity of minerals and salts and the potential for sludge.

Oxygen enters the system during filling. One litre of raw water contains approximately 8-11mg of dissolved oxygen, with corrosion primarily determined by its presence, which is why it’s important to maintain it at low levels. Generally, this dissolved oxygen will dissipate through limited corrosion with the metal pipework and components in a short period of time, usually without significant damage.

This is why closed expansion vessels are recommended because they help to limit oxygen ingress. But oxygen can enter a system if it is not sealed effectively or if it requires frequent top-ups. Oxygen can also diffuse through permeable seals and pipes. In these cases, corrosion will continue to be a problem for mild steel elements, where it will form iron oxide, FE3O4 , which can manifest as sludge.

bacterial corrosion. Some chemicals can provide a source of nourishment for bacteria often leading to more chemicals added to the cocktail, which can exacerbate the problem.

Chemical protection regimes also require a range of H&S procedures for the use, storage and disposal of chemicals.

And, if a leak occurs, the chemically treated water can present a pollution threat or leach into the water table.

The alternative is to fill the system with demineralised water and then maintain the system in this non-corrosive state, which is the approach in VDI 2035.

“

VDI 2035 is based on the principles of chemical-free water treatment.

This includes the use of ion exchange resins for fill water and electrochemistry to maintain the system in a noncorrosive state.

”

Using this method, water is demineralised at the initial fill and during circuit top-ups while the system is operational. This is done by passing the water through an excess anion mixed bed resin.

This replaces cations in untreated water (for example, Na+, Ca++, Al+++) with a cation on the resin (H+) and the anions in untreated water (e.g., Cl-, NO3-, SO4--) with an anion (OH-) on the resin.

This process removes all the salts and minerals from the water. The resin’s surplus of anions (OH-) removes the free, dissolved carbon dioxide, which also helps control the pH of the fill water. >>

The UK approach has been to dose systems with chemicals to limit corrosion, sludge and scale. Often these inhibitors raise the conductivity of system water and in the event of over or under-dosing, lead to additional corrosion. Inhibitors can also result in the formation of biofilms, which can harbour

and magnetite, which can clog up circuits and trigger localised corrosion where it collects as sludge.

Conventional sludge collectors utilise gravity and don’t pick up the smaller particles when the system is operating at full flow. The central dry magnet provides as much contact with the surface area of the water as possible. This ensures efficient capture and extraction of the particles. The magnet is retracted once the unit has been isolated, releasing the particles for removal through the sludge drain.

The demineralised water quality is maintained by circulating the system water through a reaction tank which is fitted with high-purity magnesium anodes. To comply with VDI 2035, the water in a closed loop system must be lightly alkaline with a pH value of between 8.2 and 10. It must also have very low conductivity and very low dissolved oxygen.

The magnesium anodes are critical to the process because as they corrode, they scavenge oxygen from the water. This galvanic process removes dissolved oxygen from the water and releases magnesium hydroxide. This is an inorganic compound that helps to increase the pH of the water, turning it alkaline and settling within the range set by VDI 2035. The result is an optimum pH with minimum oxygen concentration where corrosion damage is unlikely to occur.

Anodes are replaced on average every three years as part of the maintenance regime.

This method is also effective in controlling bacteria as the controlled pH, low oxygen and conductivity and lack of debris, chemicals and biofilms remove the environment that bacteria require to thrive.

Aluminium alloys are recommended to operate at a controlled pH level between 8.2 and 9. However, if the pH increases the demineralised water is still protected by the magnesium anodes which provide protection in addition to the aluminium. This means that a slightly elevated pH is not as relevant when using this approach.

Magnesium anode electrochemistry can also be applied to existing systems or to rectify a system where chemical water treatment has proved ineffective. When restoring an existing system, the sludge, slurry and corrosion residues in the water are collected in the reaction tank’s reservoir ready for blow down.

A powerful neodymium magnet running central to the unit removes ferromagnetic material, such as iron oxides

The reaction tank should incorporate a passive de-aerator to remove micro gas bubbles. In closed loops, gases dissolve in colder water but when the water heats or the pressure decreases, they are released as tiny bubbles.

These micro-bubbles coalesce to form a bubble large enough to rise to high points in the system.

In some locations where the gas collects it can be removed by an automatic air vent. Microbubbles can hinder energy transfer if they are transported and collect in other locations, such as the tops of radiators.

By locating the reaction tank immediately after the boiler, where the micro-bubbles will be present in the heated water, the unit is able to passively de-gas the water (in line with Henry’s gas Law) to help prevent the formation of air pockets.

When the system cools, the de-gassed water will act like a sponge to soak up air in contact with the system water to continuously and efficiently de-gas the system. On a cooling system, the unit is best installed in the return leg as the temperature is highest, so the de-gassing is most effective.

The reaction tanks are typically installed side-stream, so that only a small proportion of the circulating flow is passed through the device on a continuous basis. The units are sized so that the total system volume should be able to pass through the unit in a 24-hour period with units that are sized to control system volumes of 1.5 million litres in a single unit.

It’s never a good idea to wait for a problem to develop before deciding how best to tackle it and a proactive approach is essential, especially when dealing with closedloop heating and cooling systems.

Chemical treatments often only deal superficially with the problem of corrosion, whereas the chemical-free approach fixes the causes. IWTM has been using technology to engineer water sustainably and ecologically to deliver improved system efficiencies since the 1980’s. n

Harnessing the power of technology With buildings consuming some 40% of all energy produced globally1 Paul Winnett, Sales and Operations Director Building Services & OEM of Xylem UK and Ireland, outlines the significant energy savings that digital solutions can offer, as well as boosting reliability and resilience. pivotal role in making our built environment more resilient in the face of unprecedented challenges.

The latest digital options enable developers and energy managers to do more with less. Intelligent equipment can bring inefficient building systems into the 21st century and allow our buildings to function more efficiently, increasing reliability and tackling rising costs throughout the life cycle by saving on energy usage and bills.

any of our buildings have a significant negative impact on our environment and climate change. But the power lies with specifiers, main contractors and consulting engineers, who are presented with a unique opportunity to create more sustainable buildings with reduced energy, CO2 and water footprints.

As well as using more energy than either transport or industry2, energy-hungry buildings are responsible for around one-third of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions3, thanks to the energy needed to heat, cool and power them. This vast appetite means more efficient systems can play a significant role in reducing their environmental impact, as smarter solutions offer huge potential to save on energy and costs.

Consumption shows little sign of slowing: by the end of the decade, 60% of us will be living in urban areas. By 2050, that total will rise to seven in ten people living urban lives, spending some 21 hours a day in offices, factories, schools, universities, hospitals or shopping malls, as well as in our homes.

The challenge is that these buildings need to maximise water and energy efficiencies, as well as flood resistance, on an often-dwindling budget that allows for profit and growth. But with the right technology, reliable building systems can play a

Making building systems fit for the future doesn’t mean starting from scratch: many solutions can be retrofitted to upgrade existing systems to entirely or partially replace inefficient systems and help conserve resources, limit disruption, and save money.

There is enormous scope for energy savings that will have a real impact: reducing energy demand in the continent’s building stock by 80% by 2050 would cut the total energy use in the EU by almost a third4.

Enhanced monitoring of building systems is one way to gain greater control, bringing optimisation of performance, reduced costs and enhanced sustainability. Demand is on the rise for automated systems which control everything from temperature to water pressure; five years ago, they accounted for 28% of construction output, according to a report presented at the 87th EUROCONSTRUCT Conference5 in 2018, a figure likely to be significantly higher today.

From HVAC heating and cooling to dealing with wastewater, overhauling systems to meet new targets comes with a cost – but that’s where retrofitted solutions can bring real value, modernising building systems without the hefty price tag.

Smart monitoring options mean building systems can be operated and supervised remotely if necessary, allowing potential failures to be predicted and rectified before they occur. By drastically reducing downtime, they are a vital tool

of operations for increased resilience. This real-time oversight empowers proactive management: networks can detect incipient issues and deploy a response while still in operation.

Finally, advanced data analytics can convert statistics into useable information for the system environment. This system intelligence means pre-emptive optimisation decisions can be taken by system operators able to anticipate maintenance needs before they occur, instead of waiting for a costly or inconvenient failure.

Historically there have been problems with oversizing of heating systems which can lead to inefficient operation, particularly when operating at part load: the energy consumption for an oversized HVAC system can be 50% higher than necessary. In addition, studies show HVAC systems may account for up to 48% of a building’s water consumption6.

Intelligent controllers can match pump performance to demand, adjusting the speed of a standard IEC motor by converting the fixed voltage and frequency from the power supply line to bring energy savings of up to 70% at partial loads.

Consider that a motor running at 80% of its maximum speed uses 48% less energy, meaning considerably reduced carbon emissions as well as life cycle costs.

for saving time, money and energy as we look to a more sustainable future.

These digital solutions are made up of three layers: intelligent equipment, smart networks and advanced analytics.

Intelligent equipment is capable of sensing operating conditions, allowing for localised control of assets and reactive optimisation. This high-tech approach enables more accurate monitoring of critical technology so issues can be rapidly recognised and responded to.

In addition, the latest smart pumps with permanent magnet motors boast greater efficiency than a standard IE3 asynchronous motor, meeting the top IE5 standards. These integrated drives match performance to demand to reduce energy use – and even communicate with other building systems in real-time to maximise efficiency; they can operate single, twin or multi-pump systems of up to three pumps, with no need for an external control panel.

The next layer, smart networks and services, harness data from disparate sources to allow for continuous remote monitoring

There’s a way to take this to the next level: connecting smart systems to cloud-based digital services for an accurate view of asset health and reliability. The latest asset management tools offer a complete overview, thanks to real-time status reporting. These comprehensive >>

With the right joined-up approach, consistency and resilience can become standard – and significant energy savings can result; these developments in digital solutions can bring outstanding reliability, optimal savings and the shortest payback times for both new buildings and rejuvenate existing systems.

Experts say boosting renovation rates is crucial to achieving carbon-neutral buildings8, and add-ons like intelligent controllers mean fully optimised systems are within reach for the UK’s ageing building stock as well as in new buildings. With nearly one in three buildings older than 50 years and roughly 75% of the EU building stock deemed energy-inefficient, renovating existing buildings offers the opportunity to lower total carbon emissions by about 5%9.

insights encompass equipment data, relationships between assets, and performed and scheduled maintenance, which can help cut maintenance costs by up to 27% by only performing upkeep when required.

The application of intelligent solutions can provide significant savings. For example, wastewater management systems are required to operate in continuously changing load conditions, with the result that both established and new systems tend to be over-designed to cope and so consume more energy than required much of the time.

But modern intelligent wastewater pumps can reduce energy demand in these systems by up to 70%. Not only do they sense operating conditions and adapt performance in real-time, but they also have integrated pump cleaning functions, selfcleaning hydraulics and self-monitoring functionality. An ability to self-tune removes any need for a site visit and recalibration of the system, and clog-free operation can reduce vacuum cleaning call-outs by up to 80%.

In a recent project Xylem’s wastewater pumping solution Flygt Experior successfully reduced energy consumption at a pumping station at Heathrow Airport’s cargo centre by 50%. The installation of two Flygt N-technology pumps and two Flygt SmartRun intelligent pump controllers in the sewage wet well in January 20137 also eliminated the need for maintenance call-outs.

Through heightened monitoring, facilities managers can control building systems more rigorously – and harness the power of the data available to fully optimise performance. New monitoring and control solutions offer the chance to reduce energy usage and greenhouse gas emissions, saving costs but also laying the foundations for a resilient future for the generations to come. n References
