Renovation: Bed & Breakfast Ca‘ Nea, Resana
Lower energy costs, lower emissions values: ELCO had the optimal solution
Bed & Breakfast Ca‘ Nea is found in the middle of the countryside in the Northern Italian province of Treviso in the Veneto region. The rustic hotel is an old “cascina” built in 1800. It was in urgent need of renovation in order to keep up with the state-of-the-art energy technology. The standard is an innovative, energy-saving concept for heating and warm water. The goal is to cut energy costs and lower emissions according to the standard of energy class A.
ELCO provided the ideal solution: a system that effi ciently meets the demand for warm water and heating. A modern, central heating system combined with a water/water-heat pump with inverter technology guarantees high, energetic utilisation with hygienically fl awless water heat-ing. The core of the system is made up of the

two AQUATOP T22 heat pumps, which use ground water in the soil as a free source of energy. A total of four VISTRON hot water tanks have been used to generate hot water.

AQUATOP T heat pumps with free energy
The running costs of AQUATOP T heat pumps are well below
those of conventional heating systems. They tap into the ener-
gy stored in the environment (e.g. in ground water) and use
this to generate thermal heat. Moreover, AQUATOP T heat
pumps help to preserve the environment, since they produce
no CO2 emissions. They are characterised by the highest
degree of qua lity and reliability and enjoy the heat pump
“Certifi ed Quality” seal of approval recognised in Germany,
Austria and Switzerland.

The new system
The modern system has been split into three segments and
zones: restaurant, kitchen and guest room. The ELCO system
meets the full range of hot water and heating needs. A heating
system consisting of an AQUATOP T22 heat pump and two
VISTRON 500 hot water tanks supplies the kitchen and restau-
rant. The guest room has two AQUATOP T22 heat pumps for
low temperature heating. In the case of peak demand for
hea ting and hot water, a gas condensing boiler is switched on
depending on the need. The SOLATRON A 2.3 fl at collectors
supply the energy needed for hot water: free solar power.
The high-quality VISTRON hot water tank is available up to a
volume of 500 litres and is characterised by the highest degree
of functionality and reliability. AQUATOP T is the new generation
of ELCO heat pumps. They tap into the energy stored in the
environment and use this to generate thermal heat. AQUATOP T
heat pumps use the soil as well as ground and surface water as
a free source of energy, ideally for use in new buildings as well
as for renovation.

Effi cient technology controls the need for warm water and heating
The word “cascina” originates from the Tuscan dialect and can
mean anything from refuge or shelter to hospice. A cascina in
the original meaning is a small, simple stone house with a few
of the things that people need to survive: a small fi replace, a
place for sleeping, and something to eat and drink. In the past,
the “cascina” was intended for herdsmen and roamers who,
surprised by the adverse weather, needed a shelter. Guests
today will fi nd all of that at Bed & Breakfast Ca‘ Nea, of course
with fi rst-class comfort and the most state-of-the-art heating
technology – by ELCO.
