The Skid |
|
|
|
The Skid is a completely pre-manufactured boiler plant that is ready for connection to on-site heating, gas, plumbing and electrical systems. Our clients look for comfort, uninterrupted service and economical use of space. The Skid can provide these in a system that offers cost-effective installation, operation and maintenance as well as complete system integrity and control. Piping and wiring are designed for easy removal of component parts. The Skid uses the highest-quality low-output boiler modules to reduce energy consumption and cost. |

The Boiler House |
|
|
|
The Boiler House is a pre-manufactured structure specially designed to house The Skid and associated equipment according to the specific requirements at your facility. We can build and ship The Boiler House with a variety of options for installation onto the existing structure or anywhere on the site, eliminating the need to dedicate floorspace to the boiler plant. |

Cost Effective
Installation Retrofit installation of bulky boilers in mechanical rooms often requires the costly removal of and replacement of exterior walls. The Skid's multi-sectional and dimensional design allows it to be moved easily through a mechanical room's doors. Occasionally, new openings are required for boiler vents and existing concrete housekeeping pads must be removed. New housekeeping pads are not required as The Skid comes complete with it's own base. Once in place, The Skid is leveled through the use of the adjustable legs and easily connected to the building's piping and wiring. All connections to The Skid are accessible. There is no need for additional valves or control panels as these components are integrated into the system itself. The Skid is completely self-contained. Economical Operation and Maintenance The Skid reduces operating and maintenance costs through the use of individually-fired modular boiler units and a staged microprocessor control system. The microprocessor senses outside air and water temperature and maintains only the boiler temperature required to heat the space to the desired level. It can also supply year-round high-temperature water by isolating a predetermined number of modules and using them to pump through to other high-output equipment; i.e. Make-up air units and/or domestic hot water heat exchangers. Using modular boiler plants rather than one or two large boilers requiring high temperature loops allows fuel savings of twenty to forty percent throughout the year. Costs can also be lowered due to the fact that operating engineers may not be required. Maintenance and replacement costs are substantially reduced due to the high quality and proven longevity of the cast iron heat exchangers used in our modules. Standard tube boilers typically need to be replaced within twenty years or need replacement tubes in less than ten years, which can be very costly. The Skid uses cast iron boiler modules which can operate fifty-plus years without replacement and its conventional controls have proven reliable in hundreds of thousands of installations. System Integrity and Control On larger systems where two high-output boilers are used, shutting down one boiler for servicing can compromise up to fifty percent of the building's heating output. Heating specifications for many facilities require boiler redundancy to insure uninterrupted heating in the event of equipment failure. The Skid is by its nature a redundant system. If one boiler module should develop a problem, our system's microprocessor allows the others to continue operating and meet most, if not all, of the required load. Modules can be easily added to compensate for increased demand or expansion to the facility. Comfort Water temperature control is critical in maintaining the comfort of a space. The modular diversity of The Skid can be optimized to supply the right amount of water at the right temperature to the right equipment to ensure the efficient operation of any facility's heat transfer equipment. Uninterrupted Services The Skid's built-in redundant backup system provides uninterrupted service despite the temporary loss of a module that may need servicing. In the event of a power failure the system's electronic ignition will fire boilers as required when the power is restored. Often a facility can be completely reheated following an overnight power failure in time for returning employees to begin their workday in comfort the following morning. Economical Space As a modular system, The Skid step-fires only the modules required during a specific period for the space heating, snow melt, ventilation and the domestic water requirements of the facility; the boiler system and piping systems operate at the same temperature to save energy. When systems and integral gas-fired equipment are individualized, there is little savings on fuel consumption or servicing because many high-output gas-fired boilers must operate at a high temperature at all times. Modular boiler systems save energy over time by firing up only those modules required. These savings become more pronounced when the internal systems are coordinated to eliminate unnecessary water storage. While building control systems are compatible with our boiler plant's controls. We recommend a complete review of the existing control system where the skid is utilized as a retrofit into existing building systems. We also recommend a complete water balance for optimum efficiency of the hot water heating and associated systems in a facility. The basic design of The Skid includes the following:
