Remeha Quinta Ace boilers tick all boxes at care home

WOKINGHAM, U.K. - Nov. 12, 2019 - PRLog -- Remeha Quinta Ace condensing boilers (https://www.remeha.co.uk/products/wall-hung-range/quinta-ace-30-115) have been installed at a Leicestershire residential care home to provide an efficient, cost-effective solution to reliable, high-performance heating and hot water provision.

Stuart Court is a supported housing scheme. With 29 self-contained apartments, each with kitchen and bathroom facilities, there is a high demand for hot water and heating.

When the time came to replace the existing thirty-year-old boiler, ensuring a robust, energy-efficient heating system was a key priority for Stuart Court's owners and managers, the Church of England Pension Board.

Mechanical building services contractor Arthur Pollard Ltd recommended installing Remeha replacement boilers.

"We recommended Remeha boilers due to the reputation of the brand and the proven reliability of their boilers," said Technical Engineer Oliver Foster-Pollard. "Remeha boilers run for ever, in our experience, making them the most appropriate solution at Stuart Court, both in terms of initial capital costs and long-term returns."

To optimise long-term system reliability, Arthur Pollard opted to replace the single 360kW gas-fired boiler with four Quinta Ace 90 wall hung condensing boilers.

"Splitting the load across multiple boilers means that even if one boiler should fail, there will be no interruption to the heating and hot water provision," said Oliver. "The design also makes the boilers easier to service and maintain."

To minimise disruption during the boiler changeover, the works were scheduled to take place in the summer. Arthur Pollard decided to install the four Quinta Ace boilers on a cascade system, prefabricated offsite in their store, to reduce on-site time and labour.

The result was a rapid installation and changeover, with the team completing the project in just one week. By the end of the first day, the old boiler had been removed and the new Remeha boilers brought into the plant room on the offsite fabricated cascade system. The boilers were bolted into position the following day and the pipework completed a couple of days later. By the end of the week, the boilers had been fully commissioned.

The managers of Stuart Court are delighted with the outcome.

With the Remeha Quinta Ace boilers now fully operational, they are assured of a more reliable, effective and efficient heating and hot water supply and can anticipate considerable energy and costs savings moving forward.

Remeha's Quinta Ace wall hung boiler range combines robust, reliable, high operational performance with superior control capability to maximise lifetime boiler efficiency. Available in 30, 45, 55, 65, 90, 115, and 160 kW models, this advanced boiler series has been designed to meet all retrofit and new installation requirements.
