and outer liner allowing the lengths to be cut on site (specially useful when facing difficult installations). Commenting on the successful delivery of the project, Karl Carrick, Director at Hevac says, “Throughout this project Hevac and our renewable sister company, Origen Energy, have worked closely and have strengthened our links with Gaffney Mechanical both with their onsite team and their internal procurement team. We are delighted to have contributed to Gaffney’s successful completion of this prestigious project. “While Gaffney Mechanical demands the highest of standards from us as their Mechanical supplier, both in our service and supply offering, Hevac and Origen, continually strive to offer Gaffney Mechanical the highest level of support available in Ireland from our group companies. We look forward to our continued collaborative ventures between our companies in this difficult year and throughout 2021.”

direct response to the increased use of wider delta T design methodologies in commercial buildings and district heating systems. Each module is designed to operate continuously at up to 40 °C delta T differential temperature rise across the module, maximising condensing operation. The Origen CPH unit (combined heat and power) is an independent power and heat generation unit. It allows the user to generate power for their building on site rather than purchasing power from the grid. The thermal energy generated in the process can be used for heating and/or domestic hot water (DHW) preparation. In power generation, Origen can achieve primary energy savings of over 25% compared to separate generation. The main element of a CHP unit is a fuel-fired four-stroke engine, which converts the combustion energy of the fuel to thermal and mechanical energy; the latter is then converted to electricity by a generator. The exhaust

gases are not discharged directly into the environment; they flow through a flue gas/heat exchanger where heat is extracted from them. The gas detection system by Duomo is recognised within the industry for providing a comprehensive range of low cost, high reliability gas detection for many applications. The GS300M model installed by Hevac is a wall or panel mounted microprocessor based gas detector control unit that can be configured to meet customer requirements. Exclusively available in Ireland from Hevac the Jeremias DW-ECO flue system is a twin-walled factory made stainless steel chimney system with inner liner in 304 (gas and oil in dry conditions) or inner liner in 316 (solid fuel, biomass and condensing applications) a 25mm rigid rock wool insulation and a 304 outer liner. Due to its superior design there are no hot spots or thermal bridges between inner
