Air Source Heat Pump for Heating and Hot Water at a Luxury Apartment Development

What was the project brief?

Meridian Cooling were contracted to provide a heating solution for a new luxury apartment complex that has been constructed in the Evening Hill area of Poole. We were asked to utilise the use of air source heat pump (ASHP) technology to provide heating and hot water throughout the apartment complex.

What service did we provide?

Our expertise was called upon to design, install and commission a number of ASHP solutions for the various apartments within the property. We worked closely with the developer and the plumbing and electrical contractors to ensure any grey areas between the various trades were identified and resolved before they became an issue.

What system did we install?

We installed Daikin Altherma air source heat pumps with associated integrated storage tanks for heating and hot water supply to each of the apartments. Great care had to be taken with the location of the condensing units as they needed to be discreetly positioned within the garage facility of the building. This was to ensure minimal noise breakout to the apartments and to ensure the aesthetic impression of the building was not compromised in any way. Detailed consideration between the developer and contracting trades was required to ensure the most suitable service routes between each apartment.

Were there any special requirements for the installation?

Yes – two of the apartments also had air conditioning installed by Meridian Cooling. This included the Penthouse Suite, which had built in Daikin ‘vertical chassis units’ within the living area that were built into the fabric of the apartment and were only visible via the high-quality grilles. The bedroom areas were installed with ducted systems mounted above the built-in wardrobes again hidden from view behind grilles.

Will we be taking care of regular maintenance?

Yes – we will be providing annual planned preventative maintenance to all of the Daikin systems that have been installed. These will be scheduled directly with the occupants of the individual apartments.

What the client had to say

“I have recently commissioned Meridian Cooling to supply and install air conditioning into my apartment, this is the second occasion I have had the pleasure of dealing with the company. Meridian Cooling are extremely knowledgeable and competent in the work they do. On the first occasion I used Meridian Cooling, they designed and installed a ‘retro fit’ air conditioning solution into my existing property, a design was produced that made the air conditioning practically invisible. A similar lovely design has happened again on my new property. During the eleven years that I have known Meridian Cooling I have not had a single issue with the air conditioning, they also visit me once a year to maintain the system which has resulted in a completely hassle-free experience.”
