Fulton Boiler Works designed, supplied, installed and commissioned a fully-packaged, prefabricated steam plant room at St Joseph's Hospital in South Wales.

Fulton Boiler Works has designed, supplied, installed and commissioned a fully-packaged, prefabricated steam plant room as part of a GBP2.8 million refurbishment programme for South Wales-based St Joseph's Hospital The independent, purpose-built private hospital, which offers a range of services to both insured and self-funding patients, specified a Fulton plant room because of its renowned durability, reliability, energy efficiency and the company's after-sales support

Steam from the bespoke plant room, which contains two Fulton 50J vertical boilers, is being used to supply a secondary plant room containing a reverse osmosis hot water circulation system and hot soft-water plate heat exchanger, as well as two sterilisers and two instrument washer disinfectors in the hospital's Sterilisation and Disinfection Unit.

It is also being used for humidification and domestic hot water through two steam-to-water plate heat exchangers.

Commenting for St Joseph's, hospital engineer Eddie Miller says: "Even though the hospital's two existing 24-year-old electric steam generators were still operational and in good working order, they needed to be decommissioned at the same time as the old Theatre Sterile Supply Unit".

"We were aware that the new plant room had a lot to live up to, so had no hesitation in approaching Fulton for the programme".

Fulton's area manager Malcolm Henty says: "The hospital's philosophy is similar to that of Fulton's in that its priorities are to provide total care and maintain its reputation for offering the very best quality for its patients".

He goes onto say that the plant room was designed by a team of engineers from Fulton and the hospital's mechanical and electrical consulting engineers Hoare Lea Cardiff, using the latest CAD software.
