Box Clever – offsite constructed low carbon hot water systems
The implementation of complex plant equipment, such as high-capacity and business-critical systems required for domestic hot water (DHW) applications in commercial buildings, is inherently challenging on an active building site. Offsite constructed systems (OSCS), where the entire water heating plant is built, plumbed, and wired within a controlled factory environment, provide a powerful response, offering gains in quality, efficiency, and safety.
