Heating and Chilled Water Systems

Chilled water systems are often seen as an alternative to VRF systems. This is because chilled water systems work much the same way as direct expansion systems work. The exception is they use water in the coil rather than refrigerant. Technically speaking, water can be classified as a refrigerant. Chilled Water systems can be rather complex and many chilled water systems are found in larger commercial and industrial applications.

Heating represents the “H” in an HVAC system; It’s quite common to have a combined HVAC system such as a centralised air handing system served by either a chiller, boiler, heat pump, electrical heater battery or a combination of both heating and cooling sources.

Chilled Water Systems

Selecting the most suitable HVAC system to facilitate your new or refurbished building is not an easy task, especially if you have minimal knowledge of the different types of HVAC systems available within our industry. An HVAC system can be the most expensive and energy-consuming asset of any commercial or industrial build, so choosing the right HVAC solution is even more important.

There are many factors to take into consideration when deciding whether or not a chilled water system is suited for your application, but in our experience, we believe the main factors below will assist in making your decision a little easier: -

Footprint available for plant equipment
Level of precision, control, and zoning
Upfront costs / running costs
Programme of installation
Capacity of Electrical power supplies
Can it serve multiple services (Air and Water Distribution)?

Heating Systems

The main purpose of heating is to increase the temperatures inside your building to make more comfortable living conditions in the colder months of the year. The heating through a HVAC system is usually done through a central heating system being either a boiler(s) or a heat pump(s).

Traditionally conventional gas fired boilers would be installed for central heating systems to pump water around your building through heating pipes and then released through radiators to raise the temperature of a room. However, there are many other methods of heating up your building, like: -

Distribution of hot air to different spaces using centralised heating plant
Gas fired or Electric radiant heating
Heat Pumps (Air Source, Water Source, Geothermal, Ductless)
Boilers
Electrical (Over door heating, Panel Heaters etc.)

Our top priority is to make your building as functional and energy efficient it can possible be, and we understand that there’s literally endless options for you to consider. If you do not have the time or resources in house to way up the pros and cons of each system which would best suit your project, then tell us your goals and let us take away that headache, and allow us to define an HVAC system to meet your those goals.

So, whether it be a line-up of VRF systems or a centralised HVAC system, we can way up all the options before making the critical decision for you.

"Fisher BSE and Dean in particular, were an absolute pleasure to work with. They handled the fresh air/ventilation, air-conditioning and services for our office refurb which did come with its set of challenges.

Thankfully, Fisher BSE always had a solution (in some cases more than one) and the project turned out a smashing success. Some of the standout points in relation to their services, in addition to being true masters

of their trade, is their communication and ability to consistently complete all their works well before any deadline loomed near.

Would thoroughly recommend especially for those projects with moving goal posts where communication is key and quality within specific delivery dates truly matters"

"I can’t recommend Fisher BSE highly enough. Dean’s expertise and dedication go far above and beyond what should be reasonably expected.

Ours was a beast of a project and they were superb from start to finish.

It's a 10,000 sq. ft bowling alley with a £350,000 mechanical setup based in London and Fisher delivered the project on time and were on site whenever we needed them.

Your project will be in the safest of hands. I shall certainly be using them for any and all future projects."

"I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the hard work and effort you put in on the recent refurb and new build for the MOD in York.

Working within a live building across 20+ phases for a duration of 18months was a test in itself, but you remained calm and organised no matter what challenges were thrown at you.

Your professional approach in dealing with client expectations whilst delivering a difficult project to a high standard and on time throughout each individual phase was duly noted by all the management team at GTC.

Hopefully we can work together soon, all the best for the future".

"Dean was employed by Hensalls as a Project Engineer working on many varied and challenging projects.

His clear understanding of Building Services, Design and contracting procedures gained respect from clients and work colleagues he worked with during his time at Hensalls.

He was always reliable and trustworthy, and I can recommend his considerable skills for any future opportunities".
