Heat Pump & Indirect Tank Mechanical Room

Project Overview

A Sandbridge beach home was converting from oil to an air-source heat pump. We built out a new mechanical room with an indirect hot water cylinder, buffer tank and all of the interconnecting copper.

Outside, the heat pump was set on a raised pad clear of flood-prone ground, and inside we installed a pumped manifold for the radiators and a new expansion vessel and safety group.

What We Did

Scope of work for this water heaters project in Sandbridge, Virginia Beach:

  • Old units drained and removed
  • New code-compliant venting & gas
  • Expansion tank & relief line
  • Permit & city inspection
  • Haul-away and clean-up
Heat Pump & Indirect Tank Mechanical Room in Sandbridge, Virginia Beach

The Challenge

Salt air and occasional flooding meant materials and equipment placement had to be chosen carefully, and the old oil equipment had to come out before the new system could go in.

  • Coastal salt-air exposure
  • Flood-prone ground level
  • Oil system removal
  • New room layout
  • Multiple heating circuits
  • Seasonal rental deadline

The Outcome

The house now has efficient heat and plentiful hot water, and the new system was up and running before the rental season started.
