TEMPLEMORE BATHS, BELFAST
JOHN J DOYLE TRAVELLED BACK IN TIME TO RELINE THE ORIGINAL TEMPLEMORE BATH CHIMNEY STACK AND INSTALL NEW FLUE SYSTEMS… FLUE SUPPLY AND INSTALLATION
J ohn J Doyle, commercial and to reline Templemore Bath’s chimney stack in the original Victorian building and install both water heater flues and a combined heater and power (CHP) flue for future use. The boiler flues were a combination of Dinak SWJ and DWJ systems. Dinak DWhp2 was chosen for the CHP flue and Dinak DWJ for the water heater flues. “Due to listed building status the design team was very much restricted on what the impact a new chimney system would have on the project,” explained Contracts Director Alan Todd. “This meant industrial flue experts, were chosen by main contractors NUGENT careful coordination with all the project stakeholders was necessary to find a way to reline the existing Victorian-era brick chimney.” As the chimney needed to
remain in its original condition, everything was installed from the top down. John J Doyle was delighted to be working with the main contractors on yet another project. “We find it great to be involved with NUGENT on any site,” Alan commented. “Mechanical Contracts Manager Eamon Holland and Mechanical Project Manager Paddy Margey were proactive, practical and great communicators on this project, and the outcome speaks for itself.” This was not the first heritage project for the flue experts, but Alan explained the team felt a special connection to Templemore Baths, as among the generations of people who learned to swim in the two pools in Templemore was the company’s own Managing Director John Doyle. Besides, the company was founded in 1928, not too
long after the first opening of the Baths, in 1893. “I’m looking forward to bringing my kids to the pool and being able to tell them that daddy was a part of the project,” Alan said. “It was amazing to be involved in the project that has brought this building back to life and we hope it is there for another 100 years and beyond.” John J Doyle Ltd are chimney specialists and refractory engineers, providing design, supply and installation solutions for a variety of applications in sectors including residential/communal living, data centres, healthcare, manufacturing and education.
