Council care
Cysgod Y Gaer Residential Home in Denbighshire has reduced its fuel consumption for the hot water heating system from 750kWh to just 200kWh per day – with the support of Rinnai products and design support services.
Denbighshire is one of the most picturesque counties in the whole of the UK with the Vale of Clywd a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and St Asaph cathedral, which is acknowledged to be the oldest of its kind in Wales with its origins dating back 1,400 years.
With this background of pedigree and culture the county council has embraced Net Zero and strives to utilise all technologies to make as many of its properties as fuel efficient as possible.
The Denbighshire Energy Team is continuing work to drive down energy usage and costs across its expansive and nuanced estate. The team has managed projects across council buildings, including schools and care homes, to improve building energy efficiency and reduce emissions and usage costs over the longer term.
The Rinnai units installed are models from the N Series range. The Rinnai N Series continuous flow hot water heater range offers a more compact, enhanced combustion design that allows for easier installation, superior operational performance as well as ease of serviceability all points that have assisted in reducing overall cost to the council.
