Condensing boilers are a ‘quick win’ for rapid energy and carbon savings with outstandingly high efficiencies. The challenge now is to engineer for maximum performance. How? Through accurate sizing and good design.
The first step is to carry out accurate calculation of the output demand.
In new buildings, identify what heat output is required and where.
In existing buildings, re-calculate the heat requirement. Avoid ‘like-for-like or equivalent’ boiler upgrades as this fails to take into account the changing use of the building. In some buildings, the output will need to be increased to meet current demand – often due to an extension to the original building. In others, refurbishment to the building fabric may have reduced the load requirement. For a more accurate assessment, calculate the minimum as well as the peak output.
The next step is to design a system capable of matching the fluctuating load to deliver maximum performance and reliability.
Remeha's condensing boilers are designed to adapt to variable heat demand with an integrated modulating feature that matches the system load.
