Building Systems

Heating: natural gas boiler and HP
Air Conditioning: General units to satisfy common and private activities + splits and casette to support specific precints.
Ventilation: natural
HVAC controls: central for heating. Distributed for AC and Ventilation.
DHW: Natural gas, geothermal hp and Thermal collector to support production.

PLANNED ACTIVITIES

The first renovation step covers a set of measures which represent a further step in the renovation strategy. Most of the renovation actions covered in this package, are focused more on improving the lighting systems, control standards, and DHW consumption savings. It should be considered the installation of smart meters in the new pieces of equipment, in the lighting, out of each AC circuit to the rooms, and common areas. There is one additional measure which continues the removal of inefficient equipment of the previous step, which is the inhabitation of the baseboard heating network. This renovation package covers the installation of PV technology in the roof, substituting the inefficient and rather obsolete solar thermal installation and integrating pvs on the balconies located on the south façade. Replace the Natural gas boiler with heat pumps and the kitchen appliances. The third and last renovation package aims to finish the different strategies started in the previous ones, meaning control strategy, passive measures, and renewable contribution. The goal is to try to make the hotel as close to the nZEB as possible, while addressing other normative-compliant aspects, health and wellbeing, for instance.
This kind of buildings are very demanding in terms of electricity and instant hot water production. Reducing the impact by installing more efficient and sustainable systems such as heat pumps and LED have a huge impact on energy consumption. But overall, it is very important to make the buildings real producers of the energy they demand. Producing renewable energy is what increases the sustainability level and goes together with high efficient systems of DHW and HVAC. Kitchen appliances and pumps are important to look for.
