TIME FOR ACTION ON NET ZERO! SAYS RICHARD SOPER, THE UNICO SYSTEM.

Posted on by jomorgan

Our new government faces many challenges to get the country back on track to its 2030 reduced emissions target and achieve net zero emissions by 2050. It’s a very tall order and new initiatives are required very quickly. Reports by recognised independent organisations set out their thoughts on what actions need to be taken to achieve these goals – and they make perfect sense.

A significant number of their ideas relate to how we must change the way we heat and increasingly cool our homes. After all some 18% of this country’s total carbon emissions emanate from heating our households. Over recent years, encouraged by financial incentives, the installation of heat pumps, and renewable energy sources has grown at the expense of fossil fuel systems. This growth has not been quick enough with the speed of uptake being hampered by several factors such as government policy rollback, the need for more financial incentives for homeowners and a lack of qualified installers.

When it comes to heat pumps, the still relatively high upfront cost of heat pump installations, the payback periods and the practical difficulties in retrofitting the technology in existing housing stock remain major obstacles, as well as the comparative cost of electricity needed to run a heat pump. One idea is to make electricity cheaper and ensure that the lower running costs of heat pumps compared to fossil-fuel boilers is reflected in household bills. Another is that new heating engineers must be able to access high quality training in low-carbon heating and existing gas heating engineers must be supported and incentivised to make the switch.

Such proposals are broadly welcomed by the HVAC manufacturing and installation sector – and not just those companies who manufacture, supply or install heat pumps. Other manufacturers of associated HVAC products that are compatible with renewables, and offer many additional benefits over and above sustainability, also support the need for fast government action.

Unico is one of those companies. Its Small Duct High Velocity (SDHV) technology that heats, cools and ventilates homes may not be widely taken up as yet, but residential installations are growing quickly. Unico Fan Coil Units/Air Handlers not only work brilliantly with heat pumps, but they are also highly energy efficient with high maximum cooling / heating outputs and fast response times. Compact and available in different horizontal or vertical configurations, they can fit conveniently into smaller spaces such as attics or even cupboards.

There are other significant benefits too. Firstly, as an all-in-one system, there is no need for investment in separate technologies around the home. Secondly, it offers the not-to-be-underestimated benefit of raising and maintaining Indoor Air Quality levels. These are essential for our general well-being, particularly for those suffering from respiratory issues.

The Unico System offers air filtration and is equipped with integral standard air filtration. There is also the possibility of upgrading to higher grades of filter – for example, UV light air purification can counteract airborne allergens, dust, germs, odours, mould and bacteria from within the home.

An inherent advantage of Unico SDHV technology is its ability to remove greater levels of humidity from the air than other forms of traditional HVAC technology. This is an essential requirement at a time when new build homes are better insulated and more tightly sealed than ever before, lacking adequate natural ventilation.

Thirdly, it’s a highly energy efficient system, with some 97% of the electrical energy used to operate the system finding it’s way into the rooms of a property in the form of conditioned cooled or warm air and hot water delivery. This represents exceptional efficiency.

There you have it – three simple benefits of SDHV technology, without even setting out many other side operational and installation advantages. So let’s stand in support of all the organisations shouting out for fast action from this government. Time is running short, but if implemented quickly, new initiatives and changes to our approach to achieving net zero can help save the planet. In the meantime, such measures will create a better platform for making daily living in our homes a greener, more comfortable and healthier experience through the take up of newer HVAC technologies.

Sleep Easy This Summer

Posted on by jomorgan

Summer is a season of sunshine, outdoor fun, and unfortunately, sweltering heat. In 2022, we saw temperatures soar to a scorching 40.2°C, making it crucial to find ways to keep cool, especially at night.

While we rely on climate control in our cars, shops and offices, many of us still overlook the importance of air conditioning in our homes. However, with global warming causing more frequent heatwaves, the need for effective home climate control has never been more pressing. Don’t wait until the next heatwave to start thinking about your home’s climate control.

Your key to a cool, comfortable home

The Unico System is a 3-in-1 solution for cooling, ventilating and heating your home. This system is designed to provide even, draft-free and whisper-quiet comfort, ensuring you and your family can sleep soundly through those hot summer nights. Imagine one system that seamlessly manages your home’s climate.

  1. Perfect Sleep Temperature: According to the Sleep Foundation, the ideal temperature for sleep is around 18.3°C. Unico helps you maintain this optimal temperature, preventing the restlessness that comes with heat and the difficulty of falling asleep when it’s too cold.
  2. Improved Indoor Air Quality (IAQ)
    In addition to keeping you cool, Unico enhances your home’s IAQ by filtering out viruses and contaminants. This means a healthier living environment for you and your family, which is particularly important given the current focus on respiratory health.
  3. Quiet Operation: Say goodbye to the noisy, rattling air conditioners of the past. The system operates quietly, ensuring that your sleep remains undisturbed by the sounds of a running air conditioner or fan.

Benefits of improved sleep quality

Lack of sleep can significantly impact your physical and mental health. When your bedroom gets too warm this can increase your body temperature and disturb your sleep. You are more sensitive to temperatures during the first two sleep stages and are more likely to wake up during these stages if you feel too hot. Suppose you wake up during the first two sleep cycles. In that case, you are less likely to spend enough time in deep sleep, which is important for cell repair, immune system recovery and other restorative physiological processes.

Air conditioning can ensure the right temperature in your bedroom and throughout your home is maintained, promoting better sleep and overall well-being. By keeping your home cool and comfortable, you can wake up refreshed and ready to face the day.

ADVANTAGES OF THE UNICO SMALL DUCT HIGH VELOCITY DUCTED HVAC SYSTEM

Posted on by jomorgan

With the overriding need to replace fossil fuels as an energy source, heat pumps and other renewables have quickly made their mark on modernising our existing UK housing stock. Demand for effective HVAC solutions in the home is also being driven by new legislation that addresses overheating through the Building Regulations, Part O and because of the ban on gas boilers in new homes from 2025. The consequences of these developments, together with the incentives such as the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, are encouraging positive change in the quest to achieve net zero carbon output and to achieve the optimum indoor living environment.

Unico Lapford Project. Shows Ducted system.

Considerations in HVAC Selection

There are decisions to be made by homeowners and installers on selecting the most appropriate HVAC solution. With climate change and the trend towards warmer summers, how to cool a property is becoming as important as how to provide warmth. Heat pumps provide a source of renewable energy that can be used for complete indoor climate control and are available in many variations.

Assessing Heating and Cooling Delivery Systems

When it comes to the heating and cooling delivery systems, the alternatives have both advantages and drawbacks. Traditional radiators? Air conditioning units on the wall? Ducted systems? All in one solutions?  These choices must be weighed up and aside from energy efficiency and thermal comfort considerations, aesthetics and installation practicalities can be significant issues. These can include the need to make structural alterations to a property, maximising the use of available internal walls, dispensing with unsightly radiators or grilles and having sufficient space for ducting.

The Evolution of Ducted Systems

One viable approach would be to consider a central air distribution system that features small ducts to deliver heating and cooling into the living space. It can overcome many of the perceived obstacles when specifying and installing an HVAC system, whether in a new home or as part of a refurbishment project.

When it comes to ducted systems, traditional ducted AC systems in the home in the UK are uncommon and often impractical due to duct sizes and space requirements. Those who are looking for either permanent or temporary air conditioning consider split systems and portable solutions and these too have their drawbacks.

The reputation of ducted systems may have been tarnished by memories of original warm air heating systems. Their performance was often considered below par, not only in terms of efficient heat output, but also because of lack of air movement in room circulation, operational noise and maintenance issues. Of course, times have changed and there have been great steps forward in technology, so today’s warm air heating has much improved performance and controls.

The Unico System: A Modern Ducted Solution

It comes as a surprise to some customers that the Unico System Small Duct High Velocity (SDHV) system is a ducted solution. Its versatility as a central air delivery solution is highlighted by the fact that it is wholly compatible with heat pumps and offers air filtration, UV light air purification, ventilation and humidity control properties alongside heating and cooling. Its air delivery method uses a lower volume of air moving at high velocity resulting in significant advantages over other traditional forms of forced air ducted systems.

Small flexible ducting mixes and delivers conditioned air into living spaces. It has an internal diameter of only 51mm and the standard twist-fit connector simplifies the installation process. The compact design means that it can be conveniently twisted and fitted in the tightest of ceiling spaces, between joists and through wall cavities, before connecting to room outlets. The sound attenuating tubing is optimised for low noise and its outer jacket of two-ply reinforced Mylar provides a vapour seal to prevent leakage and moisture migration. It also enhances the energy performance by reducing radiant heat transfer and reducing thermal losses. 97% of the system’s energy is delivered into the conditioned living space.

With whisper quiet operation, discreet room outlets can be positioned seamlessly in walls, floors or ceilings. The air is delivered with decibel levels of < 30 and the aspiration principle of operation drives high velocity small jets of conditioned air driven into the living space, eliminating drafts, cold/ hot spots and keeping temperature differentials within +- 1ºC, floor-to-floor, floor to ceiling and room to room.  The design of the Unico System is a major advantage in refurbishment, self-build and new homes, affording a much better choice of room furniture layouts and maximum use of wall space.

Unico flexible ductwork is around 33% the size of conventional ducting and links via a central duct to a small footprint air handling unit that can be conveniently located in an attic or even a cupboard. Aside from size, however, there are other considerations when it comes to the specification of a ducted HVAC system.

Ductwork that is installed in unconditioned areas will reduce system efficiency and the ducts seen in attics with traditional AC systems are technically outside the building’s thermal boundary, often losing some 15% – 20% of the air going through them.

Efficiency and Performance

Putting values to duct efficiency, conventional ducts are generally 70 – 85% efficient and sometimes as low as 60% if significant leakage occurs from improper installation. On the other hand, Unico’s small ducts are easier to locate inside the conditioned (insulated) building envelope and therefore duct efficiency is not a significant issue. Indeed, efficiency is in the 85 – 95% efficiency bracket, based on correct installation practice.

Integration and Adaptability

The versatility and flexibility of the Unico ducted system, including its ability to counteract humidity issues and integrate with other forms of heating and ventilation, gives it even greater appeal. It can, for example, be easily installed and used just within the upper levels of a home, alongside traditional ground floor radiators or underfloor heating. In new homes that focus on high energy efficiency and building tightness with no adventitious air, the Unico System can help overcome hot sleepless summer nights as well as preventing overheating.

Professional Installation and Maintenance

Of course, careful design and layout of any SDHV system is essential and its specification must be based on calculations for heating and cooling demand within a home. Commissioning, installation and planned maintenance is also a task for experienced professionals including Unico’s Specialist Partners (USP) network.

Bell Plumbing Supplies Expands Reach with Worcester Branch, Offering Unparalleled Services and Cutting-Edge Solutions including The Unico System

Posted on by jomorgan

It was in early 2020 that Bell Plumbing Supplies took a further step forward with the opening of its new Worcester branch. This became the latest addition to the distribution network of the highly successful West Midlands plumbing and heating merchant. Since 2007 the company has established nine branches throughout the region, underlining the aim of bringing truly convenient local services to the trade and general public.  

The Worcester catchment area was recognised as one of great potential, with its good mixture of property types from smaller urban properties to country homes. Bell Plumbing Supplies set out to provide what no other independent organisation in its field was offering locally, in terms of depth and range of stocked products, trade counter and delivery services, a showroom facility and product training opportunities – all supported by a strong central organisation and highly knowledgeable staff for whom expert advice, good customer communication and courteous service are core values. 

Based at Unit 8, Great Western Business Park in Worcester, the modern premises retain some of the local heritage with an original outside wall dating from the bygone era of the local railway industry. But it is inside where the facilities are really impressive and from the outset the interior was planned to ensure the best experience for customers and staff. 

There is a large welcoming reception area and trade counter which is open six days a week. An adjoining open plan office is the hub for business administration, customer service and technical staff who provide customers with face to face product support as well as telephone and online advice.  

The branch’s location is proving particularly advantageous in attracting passing trade from the busy business park and the warehouse has a good core stock of products that meet the day-to-day needs of installers and the public. Many customers also take advantage of fast and reliable same or next-day delivery services. 

The dedicated showroom, meeting and training areas on the first floor are proving particularly popular and regularly welcome visitors for planned events or individual consultations. Customers can familiarise themselves with Bell Plumbing Supplies’ full product portfolio. Two of the highlights reflect the Worcester branch’s commitment to offering the latest eco-friendly heating and cooling solutions in response to the changing face of the market.  

Heat pumps and renewables are showcased in the highly informative Daikin Sustainable Home Centre and a further exciting addition to the space is Unico System’s versatile all-in-one heating, cooling, ventilation and air filtration system. Bell Plumbing Supplies is Unico’s principal UK distribution partner and receives comprehensive technical and sales support across the whole branch network.                                                                                                                                         

Unico’s presence at Worcester includes a fully functional system, so visitors can experience first-hand the comfort benefits and impressive performance of SDHV Small Duct High Velocity heating and cooling. The system also provides climate control to the ground floor trade counter area of the Worcester branch, helping to create a welcoming indoor environment for visitors as well as comfortable working conditions for staff. 

Paul Stevens, Unico System’s Technical Sales Trainer and Support Engineer, is in close contact with Branch Manager Liam Mulryan, providing technical and sales support, and arranging customer events and product demonstrations. Customised product training courses are also arranged at the fully equipped, state-of-the-art Stourbridge Training Centre. 

“There are high levels of interest from local installers and homeowners in the Unico System, especially with next year’s ban on gas boilers in new homes and the need to address overheating in new residential properties. Bell Plumbing Supplies is fully trained in our systems and can offer customers a new and different environmentally friendly solution,” says Paul. 

One of the strengths of the Bell Plumbing Supplies organisation is the support that branches receive from the company’s dedicated Solutions team based at Stourbridge. Solutions can appraise potential installations, giving customers impartial, expert advice on the suitability of any products under consideration. This is particularly valuable when some of the less familiar heating and air conditioning technologies, including heat pumps and Unico SDHV, are being assessed. 

The Worcester operation under Liam and the team has gone from strength to strength over the last four years, exceeding expectations. Much of the hard yardage has been done in terms of establishing the branch, but there is more to come. “We’ll continue to offer installers, homeowners and self-builders hands-on, professional service. We never stand still and aim to set standards to which other suppliers aspire,” says Liam.

Unico Celebrates the First World Humidity Control Day

Posted on by jomorgan

World Humidity Day 2024

12th March 2024 marks the first World Humidity Control Day launched by FETA, the UK trade body which represents the diverse interests of manufacturers, suppliers, installers and contractors within the building services sector. The day will help to raise awareness of the importance of humidity control and the impact it has on our daily lives, whether we are in our homes or places of work.

The History Behind the Day

World Humidity Control Day celebrates the pioneering work of John Frederick Daniell, an English chemist and physicist born on March 12, 1790. In 1820, Daniell introduced the dew-point hygrometer, a groundbreaking device for measuring atmospheric humidity. This invention revolutionised the understanding and management of humidity, subsequently becoming a standard tool worldwide.

The Importance of Humidity Control

Humidity control is crucial for various reasons. Maintaining optimal humidity levels not only enhances our comfort and well-being but also safeguards our health and protects our belongings. When humidity is controlled, it helps to provide a comfortable and healthy indoor environment that is free from dust, pollen, pathogens, odours, and harmful gases that can exasperate allergies and general well-being.

Thermal comfort is not just temperature. People give off moisture through breathing and perspiration, even if just sitting on a sofa. Showering, cooking and plant life all add moisture inside the building. Thermal comfort is affected by evaporation of this moisture and evaporation depends on the relative humidity in the room. Good comfort, where most people are satisfied, is within a narrow range of relative humidity. It should be between 45 and 55 percent. Less satisfactory but acceptable is at most 60% and below 40% starts to become dry and static-filled air.

Humidity control relies on the inherent dehumidification of the HVAC system that matches the moisture load of the house. If the system does not perform properly, it can potentially lead to indoor air quality problems in the home.

How The Unico System can help with Humidity Control

The Unico System is an innovative HVAC technology that offers an efficient solution for humidity control. It not only provides reliable cooling and heating but also ensures precise humidity control. The Unico System’s advanced design and small air ducts allow it to fit seamlessly into any space, eliminating the need for bulky and unsightly equipment.

The Unico System can remove 30% more humidity than conventional HVAC systems. It delivers conditioned air at a low velocity, this unique approach helps to evenly distribute moisture and control humidity levels effectively. The whisper-quiet operation of Unico ensures a peaceful environment while efficiently maintaining the ideal humidity level, ensuring everyone gets a good night’s sleep!

Unico has recently joined FETA’s Fan Coil Group, this move perfectly reflects the company’s dedication to enhancing indoor air quality. Unico recognises that clean and healthy indoor air is essential for the well-being of individuals, their property and their possessions.
