CVME
CVME+ units are ideal for use in leisure centre’s, schools and hotel swimming pool areas. They are designed to take into account the most important needs of the swimming pool operator, namely;
- Providing high quality indoor atmospheric conditions
- Reliable and easy to maintain
- Energy efficient and economical to run
- Environmentally friendly – no HCFC is used
- CVME+ units have an “open” construction, thus eliminating ‘cold bridging’
- Double recuperator option for maximum efficiency
- Internal or external location
- Flat packing options to ease access problems
A swimming pool complex’s fresh air needs varies throughout the day; Recotherm CVME+ units are designed to provide fresh air levels that adapt as the day evolves and can be either fully automatic or set by the pool owner.
The avoidance of condensation in the swimming pool hall is of paramount importance in order to protect the buildings structure. This requires maintaining the humidity at a level, which prevents excessive evaporation from the pool, whilst maintaining bathers
comfort. Allowing the humidity to rise with the increase in ambient temperature keeps the
fresh air requirements to a minimum, therefore, keeping the running costs down. The Recotherm
CVME+ unit varies the humidity of the building as the outside temperature changes.
Fresh air intake for dehumidification rather than refrigerant
gives fresher feel to the environment
Fully functioning BEMS (building energy management systems) means that it is always operating at its peak performance
Scrolless fans that give greater efficiency controlled by Real speed controllers
Fully modulating heating valves and dampers to ensure that the precise amount of energy is used to maintain the pool hall conditions
High efficiency filters to remove particulates
Double recuperator option for maximum efficiency
Your swimming pool hall will require, through the day, variable levels of fresh air, heating and dehumidifying. The outside atmosphere will also vary throughout the day and time of year. A Recotherm CVME AHU will…
- Automatically vary the amount of fresh air going into the pool
- Automatically adjust the temperature of the air going into the pool
- Automatically recover most of the heat going out from the pool
- Automatically remove the required amount of moisture from the pool
Bespoke Units
In addition to the standard range of units, Recotherm offer a bespoke design service. We can design a unit specifically to meet the requirement of the site. This may just involve redistributing components around to suit a particular plant room or adding additional capabilities.
For example on the Pelican Centre project, Recotherm Ltd had to design a unit within specific dimensional restrictions to allow the installation of silencers. It also had to straddle the existing 150mm high concrete upstands. Recotherm designed a unit using 4 fans to reduce the length and incorporating a 550mm baseframe which reduced down to 400mm over the concrete upstands. This allowed the contractor to install the silencers and also ensured that the new unit not only worked perfectly but looked good in the plantroom. Recotherm’s exemplary after sales service was also commented on.
Recotherm were able to provide this kind of bespoke solution because their design heritage allows them to configure specific solutions to a specific brief, we don’t simply supply predefined boxed solutions.
