Smarter management for softer landings
One of the key challenges facing building services engineers is how to ensure that heating and cooling systems are designed in a way that enables building owners to operate these assets efficiently throughout their life.
Lower temperatures for higher efficiency
With the move to using a mix of different heat sources to achieve low carbon heating, system operating temperatures have become increasingly important. Lars Fabricius explains why: In recent years there has been a move to combining a number of different heat sources within a heating system.
How low can you go?
The last few years have seen some significant changes in the ways that heating and domestic hot water are generated in buildings.
SAV provides low energy solutions for student accommodation
A LoadTracker CHP unit from SAV Systems is helping to deliver low carbon domestic hot water (DHW), heating and electrical power to the new St Michael’s Hall student accommodation at Aigburth Park, Liverpool.
The elephant in the room
Optimising the energy performance of a building requires access to meaningful data. *Elio Galluzzi of SAV Systems explains how this can be achieved by acknowledging and managing the elephant in the room.
Keeping quiet about ventilation
When designing air handling systems the noise levels in the ventilated space(s) can be critical.
