A
leading international property, infrastructure and construction consultancy
company has selected Remeha Quinta Pro boilers as the “obvious choice” to
improve the reliability and efficiency of the heating service at its re-opened
offices in Wolverhampton.
RPS
Consulting is part of the RPS Group which employs around 2,000 people in the UK
and Ireland and 5,000 around the world. Now this division, which provides
building services, architecture, civil engineering, and landscape architecture
consultancy services, has relocated to its former offices in Wolverhampton.
The
firm focuses on improving energy efficiency in the built environment. So, on
finding that its offices were relying on a dated, inefficient cast iron boiler
and burner for heating, RPS Consulting were quick to act.
David
Callaghan, RPS Operational Director explained: “The existing boiler was
extremely inefficient and wasteful. There was therefore a sound business case
for replacing the old non-condensing boiler with high-efficiency, low NOx
condensing boilers – both from an environmental and a financial perspective.”
David
specified two Remeha Quinta Pro 90 boilers to meet the heat demand.
“Remeha
boilers offer very good operational efficiencies,” he said. “But equally
importantly, wherever we have specified them, our clients have consistently
found them to be reliable and robust. For us, they were the obvious choice.”
RMC
Mechanical Services Ltd from Wolverhampton installed the new boilers. RMC
install many Remeha boilers in the West Midlands area and have found the Quinta
Pro boilers “very easy to install and ultra reliable”.
Installation
and positioning of the new Remeha boilers was quick and simple, thanks to their
compact, lightweight design. Nor was space an issue, given the large footprint
of the boiler they were replacing.
Flueing,
however, was a consideration as the flues needed to discharge through the side
wall rather than through the roof.
David
continued: “Due to the site constraints, the boilers needed to be individually
flued with a room-sealed concentric flue. Fortunately, the Remeha flue kit
accommodates all of these requirements.”
With the Remeha
boilers now commissioned, RPS Consulting is anticipating a warm, comfortable
office environment and the prospect of considerable gas savings from the
upgrade to high-efficiency condensing boilers.
The Quinta Pro
wall-hung condensing boiler range delivers high gross seasonal efficiencies of
95% for greater than average energy savings, combined with ultra-low NOx
emissions. Its extremely compact design makes it suitable for individual
installation or as part of a multi-boiler cascade or rig system. The
availability of bespoke rig options and comprehensive cascade systems for up to
eight boilers in-line or back-to-back enables greater flexibility in plant room
design flexibility and time-saving installation.
The
Quinta Pro is suitable for use on sealed systems and open-vented installations
and perfect for both new and retrofit installations. It is available in 30, 45,
55, 65, 90 and 115kW output models.
