Energy specialist’s preferred brand

Hamworthy Heating has supplied Shastid Energy with a Tyneham air source heat pump for installation at its premises in Cambridgeshire. Shastid Energy had to replace its entire heat pump system due to a fault on its existing equipment, and Hamworthy was able to deliver a new 14kW air source heat pump to Shastid’s offices within three days, ready for installation.

Said to be one of the lightest commercial heat pumps on the market, The Tyneham features a co-efficiency of performance (CoP) rating of up to 4.85, to provide efficient, low carbon heating. The seven models in the range have six nominal outputs of between 14 to 70kW, which can also be cascaded to achieve higher outputs in larger installations.

Healthy air in social housing development

Two new social housing developments in Mid Wales have been specified with PassivHaus-compliant MVHR systems by EnviroVent. They will be installed in two apartment complexes in Welshpool. Both developments are affordable and aimed at providing a healthier living environment for occupants by ensuring a supply of fresh, clean air and preventing issues with condensation and mould growth.

The SL300 slimline units were specified for the Croft Court development, while energiSava 300 units were installed at William Ainge Court. The units were chosen because they achieved PassivHaus certification, as well as offering exceptionally low energy consumption, reduced noise levels and a range of innovative features.

Steve Bowen at Mid-Wales Properties says: “We specified EnviroVent’s systems for these two new developments, due to the high performance and low maintenance of the units, as well as the technical expertise and support that the company provides.

These apartments were designed to be highly energy efficient and airtight, so choosing the right ventilation system was essential to ensure good indoor air quality and low energy usage.”
