The Park Hotel Leisure Centre Dungarvan

A cascade system of 2x Convert AW28-3P with it's unique control XCC® unit from Absolutely Clever Heating was installed to heat the swimming pool water, the kids pool water, the domestic hot water and supply heat to the men and women's changing rooms.
Due to lack of space in the original boiler room an outhouse was constructed to accommodate the new hot water cylinder “ACV Jumbo 1000”, the hydraulics, the indoor units and controls ofthe system.

The existing swimming pool heat exchanger was replaced by a “solar heat exchanger” with a larger heat exchange area which allows a lower temperature of the heating water therefore increasing efficiency of the heating system.
The system is connected to a computer located in the reception of the hotel and this gives maximum control over all temperatures.
The XCC® controls allow to maintain the swimming pool water temperature with a precision of tenths of a degree. The whole system can also be controlled by AC Heating technicians via the internet.
A separate electricity meter with day and night rate readings was installed to accurately calculate the running cost.

Previous heating costs: 74,000 Litres of Kerosine @ 94 Cent per Litre = €69,560 per year

Confirmed running cost of the system = €19.50 per day = €7,117 per year

Confirmed savings = €62,443 per year

This is a perfect example why our heat pump systems are an ideal solution for any type of property.
