PRODUCTS & SERVICES Products of the month Samsung launches low-noise, high-temperature heat pump EHS Mono HT Quiet can replace gas boilers S amsung has launched a new hightemperature heat pump, targeting self-builders, housing developers and other building owners. The EHS Mono HT Quiet is a low-noise heat pump that provides a leaving hot-water temperature of up to 70C for domestic heating purposes (when the outdoor temperature is between -15C and 43C. Samsung says that even at -30C it can supply hot water of up to 60C. Samsung says the high leaving water temperature makes the heat pump an ideal replacement for a gas boiler. The heat pump is Quiet Mark certified and operates at noise levels as low as 35d(B), using what Samsung calls a four-step Quiet Mode. The outdoor unit features a doublelayered sound insulation system fitted with a patented groove grid felt design, which Samsung says blocks and absorbs noise produced by compression parts and vibrations. The dark colour is designed for the one-metre high heat pump to blend into a buildings exterior. It has a black grille that screens the internal mechanics. The outdoor unit features anti-corrosion capabilities on the heat exchanger and chassis, to ensure maximum durability in harsh environments, and it has a seasonal coefficient of performance of A+++ energy efficiency. Samsung says the internal parts of the heat pump can be accessed via a side panel by having to remove just three screws. It is currently available in the UK in three capacities 8kW, 12kW, and 14kW including both the single and three-phase power supply system. The dimensions of all three models are 1,270mm x 1,018mm x 530mm. The unit can be remotely controlled with SmartThings, an integration platform for smart devices in the home.

The Toshiba system, installed by Adcock Refrigeration and Air Conditioning, serves the centres pool and water facilities, 100-station health and fitness gym, sports hall with climbing zone, and caf. Based on a combination of Toshibas three-pipe SHRM-e and two-pipe SMMS-u VRF systems, the HVAC system is designed to maximise energy efficiency and optimise the comfort of the centres indoor climate. Because of the coastal location, outdoor condensers are treated with an epoxy coating to protect against corrosion. The centre includes 28 Toshiba indoor units, mainly ceiling-suspended cassettes, supported by wall-mounted and ducted units. IT and comms suites have a dedicated air conditioning system with Toshiba R-32 digital inverter splits. The cooling system is designed to N+1, ensuring there is always a unit on standby in the unlikely event of a failure. Control is provided by a Toshiba Carrier UK touchscreen unit, which connects to the BMS, providing facility managers with full visibility and control of operating conditions, and the ability to optimise total system performance. Visit www.toshiba-aircon.co.uk/product/shrme-3-pipe-heat-recovery-outdoor Aquatech Pressmains Fire Priority Demand Valve is designed to be fitted to the cold water branch of any combined domestic water and sprinkler system supply. If the sprinklers are activated, the valve will close, isolating the flow of domestic water. This will enable the booster set to pump all available water to the sprinkler system. The fire safety valve is fitted with failsafe close on power failure and break tank level interlock to meet the requirements of BS 9251:2021.
