University of Melbourne Walter Boas Building

With their high efficiency low H2O copper and aluminium water to air heat exchanger, it fits perfectly with the sustainable principles of the redevelopment.

The Walter Boas Building on the University of Melbourne's Parkville Campus has been renovated to accommodate a number of tenants including the university’s Sustainability Centre. In order to provide a living demonstration of the technology, it has been fitted out with a direct geothermal system. The shallow geothermal heating and cooling system utilises the stable temperature of the earth in the first 50 metres.

Hurlcon Hydronic Heating's wall mounted Coanda's (now available as an updated  Solazar model) and Thermaboards have been used for the hydronic heating provided by the geothermal system. 

With their high efficiency low H2O copper and aluminium water to air heat exchanger, which allows a faster heat up time for reduced operating costs as well as being long lasting and fully recyclable,  they are a perfect companion choice for the hydronic heating system.  Designed and made right here in Australia, they fit perfectly with the sustainable principles of the redevelopment.
