Nottinghamshire Police selects Remeha boilers

WOKINGHAM, U.K. - Sept. 5, 2019 - PRLog -- Nottinghamshire Police has refurbished the heating systems at a series of its stations with Remeha (https://www.remeha.co.uk/) boilers.

Following a condition survey of the mechanical installation at Nottinghamshire Police's sites, consultants CJR Midlands recommended refurbishing eight plant rooms with new energy-efficient condensing boilers, associated pumps and flue vertical masts. New BMS controls were specified to enable CJR to monitor all the sites from the main police headquarters.

The critical challenges were the tight three month schedule and the need to keep all police stations operational during the works.

Remeha were selected to provide boilers throughout the scheme. David Griffiths, Regional Director at CJR Midlands, explained:

"Working within such a narrow timeframe, it was essential to select a proven manufacturer – so we chose Remeha. They have consistently provided us with excellent service and support. The good availability of spare parts was also key."

Two Remeha Gas 310 Eco Pro (https://www.remeha.co.uk/products/floor-standing-range/ga...) boilers were specified at Radford Road to meet requirements, with a combination of Gas 220 Ace (https://www.remeha.co.uk/products/floor-standing-range/ga...) boilers selected to match the individual heat output at the other stations.

Remeha's ability to offer offsite fabricated cascade arrangements for its Gas 220 Ace floor-standing range was a major advantage on this extensive refurbishment programme, as it facilitated faster, smoother installation to overcome the time constraints.

ABSN were appointed M&E contractors on the project by main contractors GF Tomlinson.

Working with CJR and ABSN, Remeha prepared 3D drawings of the boiler cascade arrangement to the specified layout for each site and integrated LTHW and gas headers, pump sets and a Plate Heat Exchanger (PHE) into the design.

The drawings enabled early visualisation of the layout before the offsite production took place. David commented: "As we also design in 3D, the fact that the drawings were available in the same format enabled more close and accurate design."

ABSN's Contracts Director Nick Clews said: "Early engagement with Remeha was central to the success of the scheme. Having the detailed co-ordinated dimensioned designs for each plantroom allowed us both to procure and to preinstall pipework in readiness for the boiler delivery. This helped speed up the installation process considerably."

The entire refurbishment scheme went smoothly, with the challenging delivery dates all met.

"We would have no hesitation in using Remeha again on projects and found them to be proactive in engaging into a team ethos to ensure the scheme was delivered on time and with no detrimental effect to the end user," said Nick.

"The project went extremely well," agreed David. "We're delighted to report that, since monitoring the sites, there have been no issues with the Remeha boilers whatsoever. Nottinghamshire Police are also pleased with the end result, especially as the collaborative approach enabled the team to deliver on time and on budget."
