Commercial Water Treatment

Heating and Cooling contribute up to 50% of a commercial building’s energy use according to CIBSE Guide M 2014 b. Running inefficiencies in HVAC hydronic systems result in increased bills, can cause issues with leaks or blockages resulting in repair costs and increased, energy consumption, maintenance bills and contribute to increased CO² emissions.

Reducing carbon emissions in commercial buildings will be critical to achieving the Paris climate goals and achieving net zero emissions by 2050. As buildings represent 39% of global greenhouse gas emissions, reducing operational emissions using advanced building management systems will be key.

Integrating building management systems together can yield incremental energy savings of 8-18% over basic HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) and lighting control.  VEXO’s holistic approach to building management and commercial water treatment solutions will safeguard your system’s reliability, ensuring your business or clients are receiving the service level they require and avoid any heating related breakdowns, all while ensuring there is no unnecessary energy use or unexpected costs due to system water quality issues.

S-BMS
VEXO’s new range of intelligent building solutions ‘S-BMS’ redefines the traditional approach to heating/hot water controls, meaning that you can now control more for less. Focused on optimising heating performance, providing remote access, anytime anywhere-reducing carbon emissions in all buildings both commercial and residential via cloud based wireless technology, and setting buildings on the path to net Zero heat source technologies.
Filtration
The VEXO X-POT is a commercial water filtration system. Operating in side stream for easy maintenance without the need to shut down the system, it captures lifted biofilm, sludge corrosion and scale debris. Making sure the water quality in the HVAC hydronic system is as clean as possible, the X-POT decreases overhead expenditure on energy bills, reduces the risk of unexpected breakdowns and repair costs, and conserves the lifespan of your HVAC equipment.
Additives
VEXO’s commercial water treatment products and additives offer superior protection for new and aged hydronic HVAC heating, chilled and condenser systems up to 90°C. VEXO’s full suite of additives, including commercial descaler and commercial inhibitor, lift biofilm and sludge, dissolve scale and passivate corrosion, maintaining the lifespan of your equipment.
A number of X-POT units are currently in operation in sites in London. Further projects where we will be looking to specify the VEXO equipment in a 42-storey hotel and private residences development. Our team would have no hesitation in recommending the VEXO X-POT range and have since advised our colleagues in our sister teams of the benefits that VEXO equipment have to offer in what has historically been a difficult and un-engineered aspect of hydraulic design in building services systems.

Due to the multiple benefits within one unit, Bmech have now made it compulsory to install an X-POT to all future commercial boiler installs and replacements.
