Toshiba Air Conditioning - Prestigious Dublin Hotel makes energy-conscious Toshiba AC choice
The installation of five Toshiba SHRM heat recovery VRF
systems at the new Liffey Valley Clarion Hotel Suites apartment
block breaks new ground in Dublin. Energy monitoring devices
have been installed within the overall installation by Toshiba’s
Jubilee Distributor, of twenty-five year’s standing, GT Phelan,
so that any of the sixty suites can be individually billed for
their own energy consumption, if required. Toshiba interactive
central control has been provided that can be viewed on an
interface in the building or at the hotel’s main reception.
The fifteen outdoor units combined in groups of three are
located on the roof of the five storey block. Seventy-seven
ducted indoor units deliver 30 HP per floor, and the system not
only provides heating and cooling but can deliver additional
energy savings with its heat recovery design.
Derek Phelan explains the system: “the Toshiba controls
determine the mode and temperature of any indoor unit and night
set-back can be incorporated if required. When the room
temperature reaches 10ºC, the Interactive Intelligence system
over-rides the card-key and re-programs the controller to
provide heat until the room reaches 15ºC. The Toshiba VRF
equipment on this project delivers 420 kW of cooling and 470 kW
of heating via slim ducted units which are only 210mm high.”
Air is ducted through grilles within the apartments. The grilles
are of a special design that combines both the supply and return
air flows. The development has been finished to a high standard
and the individual Toshiba controls have been fitted with
anodized aluminium covers to match the décor.
