BOILER REPLACEMENT – CARE HOME CASE STUDY
Brief: Full supply and install of 2 x 100kw boiler replacement and 2 x 1000 litre hot water heaters, pipework, pumps, panels at a Care Home
As this is a residential care home and the project was to be undertaken during the wintertime we were assigned with supplying and installing a temporary boiler initially. This allowed for the continuation of services for the heating. However, we had to maintain the continued water supply. We, therefore, made the decision to leave the existing units in situ. With the nature of the site, continuous hot water was imperative.
Following the installation and extensive testing of the temporary plant we removed the existing 70kw boilers from the site using a local recycling company. The pipework and controls were then modified to allow for the new boilers to be installed on a frame. We were able to liaise with the council’s controls team to assist them in fitting and integrating the new controls.
Once all parties were happy with the satisfactory running of the plant, we were able to leave the system running with the temporary plant in. This provided backup if there were any further issues.
Boiler Replacement
Due to the limited size of the plant room we had to remove the water heaters and install temporary connections within a 6-hour window. We are happy to confirm we completed it with time to spare. Over the period of the new few days, were able to modify the system to fit these units in a permanent fitting.
