Winrow • May 14, 2025

Client: Asco Engineering

Location: Skelmersdale, UK

Industry: Precision CNC Services (Oil and Gas Sector)

Project: Comprehensive Heating Solution for New Industrial Premises


Introduction:

Asco Engineering, a specialist provider of CNC services to the demanding oil and gas industry, recently relocated to new, larger premises in Skelmersdale. To ensure their modern facility could operate at peak efficiency and provide a comfortable working environment from day one, they required a robust and effective heating solution. Asco Engineering tasked Winrow Building Services Limited with designing and installing a heating system capable of meeting the heating demands of their new industrial space.

The Challenge: Heating a New Industrial Workspace Effectively

Moving into new premises presents a unique opportunity to install optimal infrastructure. For Asco Engineering, the key challenges and considerations for their heating system included:

  • Sufficient Power: The system needed to adequately heat a significant industrial area, likely with high ceilings and large open spaces typical of CNC machining facilities.
  • Even Heat Distribution: Consistent temperatures across the entire workspace are crucial for staff comfort, and potentially for the precision of some manufacturing processes.
  • Energy Efficiency: With rising energy costs, an efficient system was paramount to manage operational expenditure.
  • Reliability: A dependable heating solution is essential to avoid disruption to their critical CNC services for the oil and gas sector.


The Solution: Strategic Installation of High-Efficiency XR50 Units

After a thorough site assessment and understanding of Asco Engineering's operational needs, Winrow Building Services Limited recommended the installation of three XR50 gas-fired warm air units. This configuration was chosen to deliver:


  • Optimal Heat Coverage: The strategic placement of three units ensures even and comprehensive heat distribution throughout the entire premises.
  • Significant Power Output: Collectively, the three XR50 units provide a substantial 150KW of heating output, more than capable of managing the thermal requirements of the industrial space.
  • Exceptional Energy Efficiency: The chosen XR50 units operate at an impressive 95% efficiency rating. This high level of efficiency translates directly into lower energy consumption and reduced running costs for Asco Engineering, aligning with modern environmental and economic considerations.


Implementation: Seamless Integration for a Productive Start

Winrow Ltd's engineers undertook the installation with precision and expertise, ensuring:

  • Professional Installation: The three XR50 units were installed to the highest industry standards, ensuring safety and optimal performance.
  • System Commissioning: Each unit was fully commissioned and tested to guarantee it met the specified output and efficiency levels.
  • Minimal Disruption: As Asco Engineering was moving into new premises, the installation was coordinated to integrate smoothly with their overall setup schedule, ensuring the heating system was ready for when they commenced operations.


Outcome: Powerful, Efficient, and Even Heating for a Modern Facility

The installation of the three XR50 gas-fired warm air units has provided Asco Engineering with a state-of-the-art heating solution for their new Skelmersdale facility, delivering:

  • Consistent Workplace Comfort: Staff benefit from even heat distribution, creating a more comfortable and productive working environment.
  • High-Powered Performance: The 150KW output ensures rapid warm-up times and sustained heating, even during colder periods.
  • Reduced Energy Costs: The 95% efficiency of the XR50 units helps Asco Engineering manage their energy bills effectively.
  • Reliable and Long-Lasting System: The quality of the units and installation provides a dependable heating solution for years to come.


Conclusion:

Winrow Building Services Limited is proud to have partnered with Asco Engineering in equipping their new Skelmersdale premises with a powerful and highly efficient heating system. This project demonstrates our expertise in delivering tailored industrial heating solutions that meet the specific demands of modern manufacturing and engineering facilities, ensuring comfort, efficiency, and reliability.
