When Big Motoring World, a leading company in the automotive industry, recently introduced a new state-of-the-art corporate gym at its Gillingham Head Office, as part of a drive to enhance staff’s health and well-being, it needed a competitively priced and energy-efficient domestic hot water (DHW) solution. To meet this requirement, WaterMaster Evo 35 was selected to provide employees with a comfortable and continuous supply of hot water.

Challenge

With gyms and leisure facilities typically having a high hot water demand, Big Motoring World needed a reliable system that would efficiently serve seven new showers and several wash basins in two new changing rooms at its new basement gym, at a good price point. Moreover, with 300 members of staff, it needed a flexible system that could cater to fluctuations without running up huge energy bills.

Solution

By investigating the hot water usage patterns of the new gym, it became clear that during the working day, peak shower time would typically be before and after working hours, so roughly between 7.00 – 8.30am and 6.00 – 11.00pm. Armed with this information about the new facilities’ potential hot water usage, the projects specified contactor, FlueGas Ltd, considered the different options available. To find a solution that would efficiently meet the demands of the new gym, Peter Rust from FlueGas Ltd turned to its local ACV representative who, following a range of appropriate sizing exercises, was able to expertly identify why the WaterMaster Evo 35 would work best.

In addition to being the best option for the clients needs at a competitive price, the level of service and technical backup supplied by ACV were the deciding factors when selecting the WaterMaster Evo.

Alongside the practical benefits of the WaterMaster Evo, FlueGas chose ACV UK over other manufacturers thanks to its stellar reputation as Peter Rust, Fluegas Ltd, comments: “ACV were reliable, efficient and a pleasure to work with. They were always quick to respond when we needed them and the support team provided us with practically the best technical assistance we’ve ever experienced. We look forward to working with them again”.

Completed in two short weeks, the new WaterMaster Evo 35 fully condensing gas fired hot water system now provides employees at the new gym with an efficient and constant supply of hot water on demand. Following the installation, Big Motoring World is delighted to have a cost-effective, robust and reliable hot water system in place to serve its staff.
