NEW SOLUTION FROM ARMSTRONG HAS BIG BENEFITS FOR PROPERTY DEVELOPERS AND LANDLORDS

A new solution for space heating and hot water developed by Armstrong can prevent many of the problems currently experienced by UK landlords, property developers and contractors.

The new Armstrong Tenantherm provides energy efficient heating and hot water for apartments and community heating schemes, and can prevent a myriad of problems such as access to individual flats, unsightly or costly flue systems, high running and maintenance costs, risks of Legionella, and problems of lime scale formation.

Instead of requiring individual gas boilers and cylinders to be installed in each flat, Tenantherm is a compact, easy to install, fully integrated thermal interface unit which provides highly efficient heating and hot water from a centralised heat source, but with individual control available in each apartment. And, as the central boilers will always operate in condensing mode, it offers maximum efficiency and lower running costs.

Tenantherm is pre-assembled and tested for quick trouble-free installation and couples with Armstrong’s MBS heating solution to provide a complete off-site manufactured system which arrives at site requiring only final connection. Units can be housed in a white powder-coated steel cabinet, or supplied chassis mounted for installation in ducts or pipe riser cupboards. As the system is fully-assembled in Armstrong’s own factory, installation can be achieved simply with semi-skilled labour rather than requiring registered CORGI or G3 personnel. Designed specifically for the UK, it has controls that are simple and straightforward to understand for installers.


Tenantherm gives each resident the benefit of individual controls to select the temperature and time settings that suit their lifestyle. But this level of tenant control is made possible without the problems this traditionally brings for the landlord or property management company. As the heating source is centralised, mandatory annual inspections can be carried out whenever required, without the problems of gaining access to individual flats. In situations where tenants are frequently unavailable, or even uncooperative in allowing access, this can save the landlord considerable time, effort and cost.

The system also offers the landlord a great deal of flexibility for metering. Energy and/or water usage can be metered in each thermal interface unit, with meters positioned inside the units for ease of installation. There are a range of meter reading options including manual, optical, radio reader or centralised/BMS reading using M-bus.

The absence of a boiler in each apartment frees up space for the tenant and prevents the need for an unsightly flue or, for the landlord, the necessity for a costly flue manifold system. Maintenance costs are much reduced and there is a greater opportunity to meet demand in situations where combination boilers can struggle. As Tenantherm is able to continuously provide 12, 15 or 17 litres per minute at 40 degrees C temperature rise, ample hot water is always available without the additional capital costs and inspection responsibilities of unvented hot water cylinders. As there is no need for stored water in a system of this type, the risk of Legionella is eliminated and, as the central boilers operate at lower operating temperatures there is reduced risk of lime scale formation in hard water areas.

Tenantherm also has major advantages in terms of energy efficiency. The super-efficient MBS optimises the energy saving features of variable speed drive pumps, the latest microprocessor control and fully integrated condensing boiler technology. The energy requirement is therefore 15 to 20% less than that of individual boilers without any detriment to tenant comfort. Tenantherm also integrates with renewables such as solar thermal, heat pumps and biomass to help achieve a low carbon footprint and optimum SAP ratings.

Steve Cooper of Armstrong explained, “The regulatory framework for residential letting and community housing schemes now places a growing burden on landlords and property management companies, particularly in areas such as gaining access from tenants for inspections. This can waste significant time and resources for the landlord without providing any corresponding increase in revenue. Tenantherm provides a better solution by putting overall control of the heating and hot water equipment back in the hands of the landlord, but ensures tenants are happy by giving them complete control over their own temperatures and settings. And, as the system is pre-designed, pre-assembled and pre-tested, it is less hassle from the word go.”
