First application of ‘heating only’ air conditioning for Toshiba
For the first time in the UK, Toshiba Air
Conditioning’s Super Digital Inverter Split systems have
been specifically applied for use purely on a ‘heating
only’ basis. This is a true sign of the times.
As energy costs continue to rise, and as air
conditioning heat pump efficiencies are improving all
the time, such applications may become more common. The
use of this type of heating has dramatically changed the
life of the building in which it is being used and that
of its occupiers.
Gloucestershire-based air conditioning contractor
EESICOOL was asked by a local village Methodist Church
to use heat pumps to replace its antiquated electric bar
heating system. The building has no gas and no
water-based radiators. The efficiency of the Toshiba
Super Digital Inverter Split systems has provided an
extremely effective solution to the need for energy
efficient heating. The installation has an average COP
of over 4.0 at full capacity, and considerably more at
more typical part load conditions.
The old system provided 30 kW of heating. The new system
provides 35 kW. Two cassette systems and one high wall
system have been used. All the outdoor units are mounted
on a concealed roof area, away from potential
interference by vandals.
The church’s verger says that Ł45 was saved during the
first quarter after installation. Although this may seem
small the client was nevertheless absolutely delighted.
The savings would have been much larger but for the fact
that instead of using the heating only on Sundays it is
now used seven days a week!
The building has been brought into use for far more
activities. The atmosphere is pleasant. It has now
proved possible to change the old wooden windows to
double glazed ones to improve insulation. Best of all,
the seating has been changed now that the fabric won’t
deteriorate with dampness – everyone has benefited from
this ‘luxury’. The air conditioning has a dehumidifying
effect, which has been positive for the fabric of the
whole building. Into the bargain, the church is even
using the system for cooling on occasions, and
attendances have reportedly improved - possibly as a
result?
The church has also benefited from the Enhanced Capital
Allowance scheme as the systems are double A rated for
energy efficiency. It has also further benefited from
Value Added Tax being levied at only 5% on this type of
installation.
