Commercial/Modular Boilers

A popular choice for schools, offices, apartment buildings with district heating and many other wet central heating applications. Modular boilers can be cascaded to suit the heat requirement of the property, with many manufacturers now producing boilers that exceed the CIBSE minimum requirements. The boilers can be compact and vertically stackable, allowing for maximum flexibility and maximised space for the dwelling by reducing the size requirement of the plant room. Stackable modular boilers can deliver an output of 762kW whilst taking up less than 1m² of floor space.
To ensure an efficient heat network, it is important not to oversize the plant. This is where modular boilers come into play. They are designed as an alternative to large single boilers and each module can be a separate boiler installed alongside another in a horizontal arrangement or vertical stack. Each boiler has a turndown ratio which effectively influences the fuel consumption and output for more efficient heating. Modular boilers can operate at a lower modulation which lowers energy consumption. Another consideration in a commercial application is downtime. No one enjoys being without heat and hot water for any period of time, but in many commercial applications, downtime - whether for routine maintenance or due to mechanical breakdown - can be disruptive, expensive, and even damaging to reputation or health. In the unlikely event of one of the boilers in the system failing, a modular boiler will ensure the system as a whole remains in operation. When it comes to routine maintenance, each boiler can also be taken offline independently of the others, again allowing for continuation of supply. This makes modular boilers perfect for commercial systems as it dramatically reduces the risk of your commercial building being without heat or hot water.
