Founded in 1888, the Lovat Shinty were in need of low-cost heating and hot water demand for their new community pavilion and changing facilities. The community project was almost fully funded by charities and European funding groups including Sports Scotland, Leader, Highland Council, Robertson Group along with many private funders.

As a not-for-profit organisation, being able to fulfil the high demand of hot water for the showers at a low running cost for the club, was a crucial part of the specification. Renewable heating installers, R&I Cruden worked closely with Vaillant to design the heating system to select Vaillant’s aroTHERM heat pumps as the most energy efficient and cost effective solution.

Air-to-water heat pumps are a highly energy efficient solution as they safeguard against fluctuations in oil and LPG prices that can leave owners vulnerable to the ever-rising energy bills. Available in four models from 5– 15kW, aroTHERM is a compact unit which can be easily sited and offers quiet operation with sound power as low as 58dB(A).

After this upgrade, the Lovat Shinty Club now benefits from a highly efficient but low cost heating and hot water solution provided by two aroTHERM air source heat pumps in cascade with a 200 litre buffer tank for heating.
