After a discussion with the Kers team, our experienced consultants were dispatched to Bombay Central in Harrow. Their remit was to get a better appreciation of the proposed kitchen layout in the 200 cover premises, identify any potential problems and fully understand any constraints or issues that could impact on the operation in future.
Following an in-depth appraisal of the restaurant and kitchen, the Kers team was able to offer expert advice along with recommendations on the most appropriate energy-saving technology. This was done with a view of both meeting the project goals of reducing energy bills and lowering the restaurant’s carbon footprint while also remaining compliant with low carbon regulations both in place now and likely to be introduced in the future.
The Kers HT commercial kitchen heat recovery system was identified as the perfect solution. It was selected to capture the high-temperature waste heat from the cookline and convert that heat into free hot water for the whole restaurant.
Kers HT Titaninum collectors were installed together with the KersH3 controller which monitors and directs which utility takes precedence (hot water, heating etc.) and then feeds directly into the Thermo stores. The whole system runs at less than 3 amp, making it extremely efficient.
Bombay Central have an extremely low energy, low carbon heat recovery system which provides hot water to the restaurant and kitchen.
Because the system reuses the energy already generated, the only running cost is the less than 3amp controller itself.
We calculate a 98% recycled energy and 98% low carbon energy outcome – mission accomplished!
Checking back in with Bombay Central 18 months after the installation took place, the Kers team were thrilled to hear Rishi Lakhani, CEO of Bombay Central say, “It’s great that we have our hot water being generated by the waste heat from the kitchen and the plus is, it’s saving us money on our utility bills too.”
At KERS, we’ve been at the heart of energy recovery technology since 2012. Manufacturing innovative energy saving, low carbon hot water and heating products for different industries
