Commercial heat recovery units in Lincolnshire

A commercial heat recovery unit supplies fresh air and extracts stale air through a heat exchanger, so the energy already spent heating or cooling the building is passed to the incoming air instead of being thrown away. It is the standard way to ventilate offices, schools, gyms and clinics efficiently.

What the work involves

Units use plate exchangers (no mixing of air streams) or rotary wheels (higher efficiency, small transfer of moisture). The right choice depends on the use: a gym or swimming area has very different moisture loads to an office. We size units to the building's occupancy and fresh-air needs, plan the duct connections and controls, and commission the system so the design airflows are actually achieved.

Questions about commercial heat recovery units in Lincolnshire

Which rules apply to ventilation in Lincolnshire?

In England, ventilation in new and altered homes is covered by Approved Document F of the Building Regulations. Landlords also have duties under the Housing Health and Safety Rating System, and workplaces must be ventilated under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992.

Plate or rotary heat exchanger?

Plate exchangers keep the air streams completely separate; rotary wheels are usually more efficient and recover some moisture. The use of the space decides which is better.

Sometimes. Extract-only systems can often be upgraded to balanced supply and extract with a heat recovery unit.
