Boilers cut costs for Marks and Spencer
Innovative boilers from Potterton Commercial are minimising heat and hot water costs at the new Marks and Spencer store at Braehead, Scotland.
With their 750-litre storage capacity and continuous output of 2720 litres per hour, they were ideal for this demanding role.
Tony Field, Project Manager for Atlantis International of Loughborough who worked on the project with Karcher of Germany, says, "The concept is similar to the familiar car wash except on a larger more sophisticated scale.
Hot water - as opposed to cold water - is essential ensuring the cleaning agents work faster and more effectively.
This in turn meets the vital role of speeding train throughput at this busy wash centre.
The Potterton Commercial XP8 units met the large volumes required." Potterton Commercial Water Heater Range includes 13 models with storage capacities from 200 to 1000 litres per hour, a choice of power options and two ignition systems - thermo-electric and electronic.
Units can be installed singularly or in parallel depending on demand.
