Dalrada + ATI of New York · Hot water. Reimagined.
One facility. Different water-heating needs.
Look beyond the surface. Showers and changing rooms need domestic hot water; heating the pool is a separate engineering study.
Aquatic centers · Beyond the surface
New York project planning
Separate the water services in a New York aquatic center
Changing-room showers are a DHW application. Pool heating is a separate thermal study, affected by the pool and its environment. A shower-sizing result must not be presented as a pool-heating selection or as confirmation that the same unit suits both duties.
- Changing-room demand and busy session changes
- Separate pool, ventilation and operating information
- Independent equipment suitability for each proposed duty
Showers and changing rooms
Assess domestic hot water (DHW) from visitor patterns, shower flows and peak periods, including storage, recovery and distribution.
Study the pool separately
Pool dimensions, target water temperature, covers and operating hours matter. Indoor air temperature, humidity and ventilation also affect the assessment.
Confirm equipment suitability
Pool-water chemistry, heat exchangers and hydraulic separation must be evaluated. This illustration does not establish DCE 125 suitability for heating the pool water.
Prepare your project brief
For showers: visitor schedules, flows and temperatures. For a pool study: dimensions, indoor/outdoor location, target temperature, cover schedule and existing heating.
Scope of the assessment
Use of the Dalrada DCE 125 CO₂ air-to-water heat pump for pool heating requires a separate technical assessment. The current DHW calculator covers showers and changing rooms only. Pool-heating calculations and sizing require a separate technical review.
Questions before you begin
What happens after this introduction?
Explore the film, review the application and use the preliminary tools to prepare questions for a project-specific discussion. Equipment suitability must be confirmed.
