Open loop system using Wales’ only thermal spring, Taff’s Well, as a heat source.

OVERVIEW

In a unique installation project for Kensa Contracting, the historic Taff’s Well – Wales’ only thermal spring – was used as a heat source for heat pump systems in Ffynnon Taf Primary School and the pavilion at Taff’s Well Bowling Club, near Cardiff.


Kensa designed a complex but effective open-loop water source system and oversaw innovative horizontal drilling solutions in the installation of the underground pipework. Water source systems are highly efficient, as water has a higher heat transfer rate than the ground. The primary school benefitted from the high heat capabilities of Kensa’s Q (gshp) heat pumps, whilst the bowls pavilion is heated by the efficient Kensa Evo.
