Services
Air Source Heat Pumps
ELCO's commercial air source heat pumps deliver outputs from 24kW to 100kW, utilising R32 refrigerant for efficient heating. These systems produce hot water up to 60C, suitable for both new builds and retrofit projects. Designed for commercial applications, they offer ultra-low energy consumption and minimal environmental impact.
Condensing Boilers
Our high-efficiency condensing boilers feature HEX3 heat exchanger technology, achieving seasonal efficiencies above 90%. With outputs from 34kW to 2MW, these gas-fired systems reduce NOx emissions by 68% below EU limits. Compact modular designs enable flexible configurations for commercial buildings.
Hybrid Systems
ELCO's hybrid systems combine heat pumps with condensing boilers for optimal decarbonisation. The award-winning System Selector tool helps specifiers design solutions that balance renewable energy with traditional heating. These systems meet Part L regulations while maintaining operational efficiency.
Hot Water Production
Commercial hot water solutions include instantaneous gas heaters and indirect calorifiers with capacities up to 5,000 litres. Systems like the TRIGON XL WH deliver up to 10,563 litres/hour, suitable for hotels, leisure centres, and industrial applications. All systems prioritise energy efficiency and low emissions.
CPD Training
We offer CIBSE-approved CPD modules covering heat pump integration, hybrid system design, and condensing boiler technology. Training is delivered at our Midlands centre or on-site, focusing on practical application for specifiers and installers. Courses include hands-on experience with latest heating technologies.
