Abstract

Describes the results of monitoring a highly successful refurbishment project in which a set of gas-fired condensing and standard boilers replaced obsolete boilers at a hospital. The boilers served the existing conventional space heating system in the 60 buildings at the site. The energy savings achieved in 1 year recouped the extra capital cost of the condensing boilers compared with the cost of conventional high-efficiency boiler plant. The data collected are used to illustrate the cost effectiveness of condensing boilers for non-domestic buildings and their particular suitability for hospital refurbishment projects.
