ELCO delivers premium upgrade to London office refurb project.
As part of a major upgrade, ELCO Heating Solutions has supplied 15 TRIGON® XL 570kW boilers to 10 Upper Bank Street in Canary Wharf. The new compact and highly efficient gas condensing boilers have replaced 21 ageing units.
 

10 Upper Bank Street in London, United Kingdom.

 

The Challenge

Comprising 30 occupied floors, four basement floors, special function suites, as well as a gym, swimming pool and auditorium – all spanning over 1 million sq. ft. – 10 Upper Bank Street required a modern, reliable and high performance heating system to cope with the fluctuating demands of the building.

 

Comment

The refurbishment of the plant rooms was managed by the Projects Department of Engie. Commenting on the decision to choose ELCO boilers, Project Manager, Tim Mardell, said: “We looked at a few products and narrowed it down to three, but it soon became clear that ELCO’s units were the preferred option for a numbers of reasons. Firstly, their ability to be disassembled into component parts allowed easy access in the restricted plant rooms. Secondly, the boilers’ performance easily satisfied several green issues for the project and, finally, the overall customer care offered was excellent.” 

M&E consultants for the project were THD Consulting Engineers. Chris Glover, Director, said: “This was an ambitious project that required a carefully designed, high quality heating system. The ELCO boilers were chosen for a number of reasons, but one of the most important was their high levels of sustainability. I was really impressed with their overall performance, as well as the extremely low NOx levels on offer, so I will certainly be considering them for other projects.”

The ELCO solution

 

To fulfil the system requirements, ELCO’s floor standing units were installed over three floors; four boilers on the 31st level, and an additional 11 divided between the fifth and sixth. ELCO also ensured hassle free integration to the building management system, by utilising the ELCO Commercial Gateway to allow communication via BACnet protocol.

 

 

"The entire installation process was straightforward, especially when it came to fitting the boilers in the required cascade arrangement within each plant room. The units are fantastic from an accessibility point of view, which will be particularly beneficial when it comes to annual servicing and maintenance. I was impressed with the smooth process of assembling them in situ and would highly recommend using them on future projects."
