S & P Coil Products Limited - Environmentally Sustainable
solution to cool the Water House Restaurant
 Specialist
manufacturer and supplier of heating and cooling equipment SPC have
supplied ThermaSail Radiant Conditioning Sails to The Water House
Restaurant, Hoxton which is owned by the award winning charitable
organisation the Shoreditch Trust.
The Leicester-based heating and cooling equipment experts have
supplied ThermaSail Radiant Conditioning Sails for the new Water
House Restaurant which is the latest idea from eco-friendly
restaurateurs Arthur Potts Dawson and Jamie Grainger-Smith. Water
House is an offshoot of well known Acorn House restaurant famous for
its eco-sensitive theme with energy-saving hydro-carbon fridges and
solar panels to generate hot water.
As an addition to the ground breaking eco-design of the Acorn House,
the Water House Restaurant has a new revolutionary high-tech passive
cooling system which comprises of ThermaSail Radiant Conditioning
Sails to provide the cooling and is linked to a heat exchanger
located in the canal next to the restaurant.
During warm periods, the canal water is much cooler than the air
inside the restaurant. The ThermaSail System absorbs heat from the
restaurant and expels this heat via the closed water circuit linked
to the heat exchanger in the canal. A pump circulates the cooled
water through the pipe system connecting the ThermaSail Radiant
Conditioning Sails to the heat exchanger which dissipates the
extracted heat and ensures the restaurant stays cool and fresh
during the summer months.
The Shoreditch Trust’s Water House Restaurant located on Orsman
Road, London, opened in February this year costing just under
£400,000. The restaurant is positioned on the banks of the Regent’s
Canal, with its unique heat-transference system using the water from
the canal, which provides hot and cold water for the restaurant. The
interior has been designed in the same manner as Acorn House, with a
modern looking feel with basic wooden-top tables, concrete pillars
and an open style kitchen with an almost entirely organic menu.
The kitchen at Water House is entirely electric, powered directly by
Scottish hydroelectricity. Fridges are all water based and rainwater
is collected for use within the restaurants toilet facilities. Jamie
Grainger-Smith, the restaurant director suggests there is a theme to
the restaurant, "The whole place is run off water and there is not
one bit of fossil fuel being burn.” Hence the name Water House!
The eco-friendly design of the cooling system which includes
specially painted perforated ThermaSail Radiant Conditioning Sails
as the main cooling element was a concept thought up by Waugh
Thistleton Architects and Michael Popper Associates with the
installation completed by Wilden Services Limited on behalf of WFC
Interior Consultants + Contractors.
SPC’s ThermaSail Radiant Conditioning Sails fill the gap between
chilled beams and chilled ceilings, providing the energy efficient
radiant cooling of chilled ceilings, together with the convective
cooling of chilled beams. The term ‘sail’ is used generally in
Europe to describe a floating ceiling feature, and the simple flat
surface of the sail which can be almost any shape, colour and size,
into which lights and fittings may be integrated, is suspended below
the soffit, as a design feature. This opens up an entirely new range
of architectural possibilities, whilst combining energy efficient,
cooling and heating with ease of installation.
ThermaSails are manufactured from a patented composite aluminium
panel which ensures strength, rigidity and high thermal
conductivity, whilst at the same time being light and easy to
install.
The copper coil is fixed into aluminium extrusions which are in turn
mechanically fixed to the topside of the sail, ensuring excellent
and reliable heat transfer. The simplicity of the ThermaSail
structure enables the high cooling performance.
