Emergency Hygienic Hot Water Solution for BMI Healthcare

The Challenge

A calorifier which was providing essential hygienic hot water at a leading private hospital failed. The hospital’s on-site engineering team was unable to rectify the problem quickly, leaving wards with no hot water and in a potentially critical situation.

The Solution

Fortunately, prior to this breakdown, the private hospital group had asked ICS Cool Energy to prepare a contingency plan to cover all of their temperature control equipment, not just their DHW systems.

From air-conditioning systems to keep wards at the right temperatures to MRI scanner cooling equipment and everything in between, ICS Cool Energy had visited each hospital within the group to survey and assess all of the sites and their equipment. The comprehensive planning process included reviewing access routes to ensure that equipment could be delivered to site and installed quickly and easily.

In this instance, the contingency plan with the correct equipment on stand-by, enabled the ICS Cool Energy hire team to act fast and resolve the potentially critical situation – restoring the hot water to the facilities within hours.

The speed of response was triggered by a call to the ICS Cool Energy helpdesk at midday. The vital boiler and equipment was delivered to site by late afternoon and the technical teams set to work to install and commission the unit. A crisis was averted with minimum disruption to the hospital facilities.
