📰When RAAC was identified in the roof of the outpatients building at Haywood Hospital in Stoke-on-Trent, it created an opportunity to rethink the building’s HVAC infrastructure🏥

👉Aermec heat pumps were selected for a project to provide air conditioning, space heating and domestic hot water, supporting the hospital’s building services requirements.

❓How did the project contribute to the NHS’s ambition to develop a low-carbon, climate-resilient health service?

👉This technical analysis published on Refrigeration industry looks at effective data centre cooling - and the strategy behind the selection.

Andy Hawes, General Manager Technical Services at Aermec UK describes how refrigerant selection has evolved. What was once largely a performance and efficiency decision now requires balancing regulation, safety, availability, serviceability and customer goals alongside cooling performance.

The first part of this series traced a chain of decisions from public data and disclosed projects: what a site can supply in power, water, and demand for

Engineering shapes the world 🌍around us - including the environments where we work, learn and live.

Aermec engineers 🔧🔦💻bring together their technical expertise, system design and problem-solving to deliver heating, cooling and ventilation solutions that meet the demands of modern buildings.

📣Today, we celebrate the people turning engineering challenges into practical solutions, and the next generation who will shape what comes next. This is all the more poignant since it is the Royal Academy of Engineering’s 50th anniversary. What will HVAC engineers of 2️⃣0️⃣7️⃣6️⃣ be challenged with, we wonder?

📣Aermec has broadened its high‑temperature heating line-up with the HWSG_H and WFGN_H series, delivering hot water up to 80°C and 85°C 🌡respectively for demanding projects.

👉With dual‑circuit configurations, screw compressors, plate heat exchangers and refrigerants aligned with current regulatory requirements, these units support stable high‑temperature operation across industrial and refurbishment projects.

📌If you’re reviewing high‑temperature heating requirements for upcoming projects, Aermec’s technical team can provide guidance on suitable configurations.

🎃On the eve of Halloween, we ask: what is the scariest thing in your HVAC system? 😱

It might be something you can't see.

Refrigerant leaks can start small, but they can affect system performance, increase energy use and allow refrigerant to escape into the atmosphere.

And unlike a Halloween ghost 👻, you can't simply wait for them to disappear.

For businesses that depend on HVAC systems running 24/7, having an effective refrigerant leak detection and maintenance programme in place can help identify problems early and reduce the risk of disruption‼

Our factory-trained engineers service clients throughout the UK, providing both emergency and planned maintenance to help keep your systems operating reliably😅

It’s Back to the Future Day 🚗⏰🚀and, for those of us old enough to remember its impact, it’s scary to think how long ago that was!

It has us pondering this: if HVAC engineers from 1985 could jump into a DeLorean and arrive in 2050, they would probably recognise the fundamental challenge - keeping people comfortable.

We may not have a crystal ball🔮, but we can already see some of the things reshaping the industry:

🔹 Refrigerants: the move towards lower-GWP and natural refrigerants

🔹Heat pumps: expanding into more heating applications

🔹AI and smart controls: systems predicting demand rather than simply reacting to it

🔹System efficiency: finding new ways to deliver the required performance

🔹Water: rethinking cooling strategies where water availability is a consideration

🔹Indoor air quality: increasingly considered alongside temperature control

🔹Grid interaction: HVAC systems becoming part of how buildings manage energy.

And one thing is certain: the HVAC in the next 50 years 2️⃣0️⃣7️⃣6️⃣will need to respond to conditions that look very different from those we designed for in the past.

The future may be difficult to predict. But designing for it starts now.

Data centres were designed for the climate we had 🏢🗄️🖥️

Increasingly, they need to operate in the climate we have now 🌡️

A report (published on DataCenterNews) highlights the growing need to retrofit existing UK data centres as heatwaves, water stress and extreme weather put additional pressure on infrastructure 📝🔍🖥️

For HVAC, this raises an important question ❓
Is existing cooling infrastructure still fit for the conditions it may be expected to operate in? If not, is retrofitting the way forward - the plus being that it doesn't necessarily mean starting again?

As AI increases computing density and the resulting heat load, cooling needs to be considered as part of the wider resilience strategy - not simply as equipment that keeps servers at the right temperature 🎯

Tomorrow is World Mental Health Day, and Aermec is taking a moment to recognise the people behind the systems 🫂

Our HVAC industry is built around creating comfortable, healthy environments for people - but the people behind those systems matter too🧠💭🤝

❗️Engineers, contractors, installers, consultants, service teams and everyone working in HVAC can face pressure, long hours, demanding projects and the expectation to keep things moving when problems arise 👇

🔔 A positive working environment isn't just about temperature, air quality or energy efficiency.

It's also about feeling supported, valued and able to say when things aren't OK.

Because looking after the systems matters.

Looking after the people who keep them running matters too🌱

Every HVAC professional started somewhere.

⭐ Someone taught them how to design a system.
⭐ Someone showed them how to solve a problem.
⭐ Someone passed on the knowledge and experience that can't simply be found in a manual.

Today is World Teachers' Day 🌍 🎓

Here at Aermec UK, we are recognising the teachers, tutors, mentors and experienced colleagues who help the next generation of HVAC professionals learn their trade 🙏

Because engineering knowledge doesn't just get passed down.

It gets built on ⚙️

And the people who share it help shape the future of our industry

🗞️As we all know, AI is driving unprecedented demand for data centres.

🗣️ We have highlighted recently that how we cool that infrastructure matters - and that the choices made at the design stage have wider implications.

Recent press coverage has raised concerns around water 💧availability in the UK and how cooling can no longer be considered simply an engineering requirement. It needs to be discussed as part of the wider conversation around energy, water and resource use.

📍At Aermec, we support conversations with stakeholders to ensure cooling approaches are appropriate for the application as well as the environment in which they operate.

It’s not about selling a cooling solution.
It’s about asking the right questions at the design stage and considering energy use, water availability and the specific conditions in which the infrastructure operates.

Read this article from Computing on why water shortage is a real concern and why the UK government needs to consider water availability as it works towards its data centre capacity ambitions.

The UK government’s enthusiasm for AI infrastructure is missing one important dependency: enough water to keep the servers cool.
