SUSTAINABLE HVAC

The Verville apartment complex includes 58 units.

GLEN DIMPLEX HEATING & VENTILATION’S EDEL HOT WATER HEAT PUMP SYSTEM IS IDEAL FOR SPECIFICATION IN LARGE RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENTS SUCH AS VERVILLE CLONTARF… ... Delivering low-carbon smart heating, ventilation and hot water

Verville in the heart of Clontarf is a premium apartment complex, with 44 apartment units in the back and 14 in the front. The apartment services and utilities required a high level of connectivity and easy, convenient access to the rest of the building, allowing residents to be fully in charge of their living space. To meet the requirements for on- site renewable energy, the design additionally focused on great energy efficiency. Together with the difficulty of numerous cornices and stairs in the house sites, MKN recognised it needed a complete solution. Sustainability is at the core of MKN and led to choosing the new Glen Dimplex Heating & Ventilation (GDHV) low carbon, renewable energy system to deliver smart heating, ventilation and hot water through its Edel hot water heat pump solution.

GDHV’s Edel hot water heat pump system features direct-acting panels, smart storage heaters and mechanical ventilation with heat recovery (MVHR). This solution is ideal for specification in large residential developments. Dimplex E-Heat is a complete, sustainable HVAC system that provides an unrivalled, out-of-the- box, regulations-compliant solution. The Edel uses external air delivered through a ducted system to an air source heat pump integrated into a single unit alongside a hot water cylinder. The heat pump recovers heat from external air, which is used to raise the temperature of water in the cylinder above 60°C. The Edel hot water heat pump was installed by electrical and plumbing contractors and didn’t require specialist installers, whilst the time to complete the installation and

setup was two to four times quicker. To maximise the comfort levels and provide fresh, ambient air in the apartments, MVHR was specified. Xpelair NA180 MVHR units were installed in each apartment. The MVHR units are continuously extracting stale air whilst recovering up to 89% of the heat that would usually be lost back into fresh, filtered air entering the apartment. The Dimplex Control App is a critical feature bringing the services in the apartments together. The user-friendly app interface allows apartment residents to control their heating more easily. Energy reports are available for users per apartment, zone or product, with a 24-hour, seven-day, monthly and annual view.
