Phd have invested in Air Source Heat Pump covers for plots where the gardens are yet to be rotavated and turfed.
The main principle of these covers is to keep as much debris from entering the unit during the construction phase.
The covers are made of a durable material with an open meshed rear which allows free movement of air into the machine to be pulled through the unit by the fan and expelled via the front when the flaps are opened.
Underneath the front flaps are meshed areas which as per the rear mesh do not restrict air movement and machine performance.
Senior engineers attended The Mitsubishi Air Source Heat Pump (ASHP) training centre on the 8th January 2024 to undertake comprehensive training.
Another fully appreciated and enjoyable day exploring all the capabilities of Mitsubishis ASHP offering to the market.
Phd attended a training session to get to grips with the Daikin range of Air source Heat Pump units October 2023.
Fortunately for us all other candidates cancelled on the day so we had the trainer to ourselves, poor fella! Questions a plenty with plenty learnt.
Phd senior technicians attended Baxi training centre on 20.09.2023 to discuss and dissect Baxis’ offering with regards to air source heat pumps.
A long and detailed day with considerable knowledge obtained.
Phd London) Limited were pleased to attend training today 14 th August 2023 at Ideal Heating’s training centre in respect of the Ideal Air Heat pump monobloc system which is available to the market now.
Phd (London) Limited are working on multiple sites for different developers with regards the installation of renewable technologies to new build properties.
Installation of these technologies has been the result of considerable training which our installers have been undertaking with industry leading air source heat pump manufacturers over the past few years.
Development : Sudbury, Suffolk
These five properties are a trial area of renewable technologies for this developer aside of a large development situated in the countryside of Suffolk.
The entire five properties are electric powered and showcase a range of advanced renewable technologies as follows;
4 bedroom property
- Smart home energy system
- Waste water heat recovery
- Battery Storage
- Photovoltaic panels
- Infrared heating
- Smart hot water cylinder
- Triple window glazing
- A-rated front door (highest level of thermal insulation provided by the door)
- Timber build with enhanced make up to walls
5 bedroom property
- Waste water heat recovery
- Air Source Heat Pump
- Triple Glazing
- A-rated front door
- Block Build with enhanced walls
5 bedroom property
- Waste water heat recovery
- Air Source Heat Pump
- Mechanical ventilation with heat recovery
- Underfloor Heating
- Thermal skirting
- Triple Glazing
- A-rated front door
- Block Build with enhanced walls
2 bedroom property
- Waste water heat recovery
- Exhaust Air Heat Pump
- Triple Glazing
- A-rated front door
- Block Build with enhanced walls
3 bedroom property
- Waste water heat recovery
- Heat Pump cylinder
- Electric panel space heating
- Photovoltaic panels
- Triple Glazing
- A-rated front door
- Block Build with enhanced walls
Not forgetting homes for nature as well
Development : Haddenham, Cambridgeshire
This site, which is now completed and fully occupied consists of thirty three units all with underfloor heating to the ground floor and traditional radiators to floors above.
The property is supplied with a primary heat source from an external air source heat pump (ASHP) which provides heat to the underfloor and radiators and the hot water cylinder.
The developments properties run individual systems where the ASHP is using glycol sent to a plate heat exchanger which transfers accumulated heat across a plate to traditional inhibited waters running through the heating circuits and cylinder coil.
ASHP units vary is size from the single fan 5kw to 10kw with the double fan 12kw for the large development properties.
Units were configured to make use of internal airing cupboards and rear internal garage walls to house components used in providing heating and hot water.
Development : Buntingford, Hertfordshire
A development using Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHP) currently as of August 2023 in the final build / commissioning stages.
A different ASHP manufacturer again was chosen by this developer based around the same principle, fan unit externally, running full inhibited water system from the ASHP primaries pipes to a full wet radiator system with hot water cylinder.
Development : Takeley, Essex
This site is currently under construction and sees again the use of Air source heat pumps (ASHP) with the entire system running with traditional inhibited waters. This is achieved by installing anti freeze valves to the flow and return from the ASHP.
This negates the need for a plate heat exchanger within the property making the system more streamlined and compact, offering a similar efficiency as the more conventional glycol filled system.
The system then simply consists of an external fan and internal cylinder cupboard.
Development: Ipswich, Suffolk
Site of new build timber framed dwellings with the latest high level of insulation and energy saving components running an air source heat pump with ground floor underfloor heating and wet radiators to the upper floor . We have partnered with Towelrads to provide the underfloor components as shown below pre screeding stage of works along with Vaillant for all Air Source Heat requirements.
As shown below in the pre-screeding stage the underfloor heating requires a tighter looping pattern with 150mm centres as the internal water temperature is kept low, thus improving efficiency.
