HCP is the specialist heating division of SAS International (www.sasint.co.uk).
For over 30 years HCP has delivered new and innovative radiant and convective heating solutions.
The HCP range of heating products offers an efficient, low maintenance and fully recyclable space heating solution. HCP offers both standard and bespoke products and a supply-only or supply and install service.
Design and adaptability are fundamental to the HCP philosophy, so whatever the space restriction or output requirement a system can be designed to suit. The product portfolio can be broken down into five broad segments:
Radiant Heating - Frees up floor and wall space in an energy efficient and low maintenance way
Trench Heating - Discrete under floor system for combating heat losses at glazed elevations
Perimeter Heating - Prevents cold draughts and condensation at perimeter zones
Finned Tube Elements - Five element sizes for use in convective heating solutions
Grilles - Roll up and linear grilles in lengths up to 3600mm

HCP supply Perimeter Heating to Dublin Airport
November 2011
HCP, a division of SAS International, has supplied a range of perimeter heating and air handling grilles to the new Terminal 2 at Dublin Airport, Ireland.
Over 1,400 metres of floor mounted straight and curved perimeter heaters with double heating elements were installed. Encased in brushed stainless steel metal casings the finish followed a horizontal direction to answer aesthetic requirements.
HCP was closely involved with the design and manufacture of these systems providing Mercury Engineering, Dublin with a mock up of units in advance.
Flat top and sloping top grilles with 20 degree angles, which helps prevent the surface being used for discarded rubbish, were used and installed in throughout the terminal.
The manufacturer designed solutions with additional straps incorporating a shelf along the panels to take the weight of the grille, should it be used as a seat, thus answering demands to provide a robust solution for this high traffic area.
Perimeter Heating systems provide continuous heating along walls and walkways and can be used to combat cold down draughts and condensation often found at glazed elevations. Three hundred metres of heaters were installed at height on a transom on the front glass facade of the airport which helps offset the heat loss / transfer from the glazing.
These solutions are suitable for use in the commercial, education and transport sectors helping to create a comfortable interior environment.
Design and adaptability are fundamental to the HCP philosophy of customer commitment. Whatever space restriction or output requirement HCP can design a system to suit needs. Should an installation require a special unit to be made, HCP can design and manufacture a prototype unit in advance in order that the system can be tested to ensure maximum satisfaction.
HCP tested to European radiant panel standard

HCP tested to European radiant panel standard
12/11/09
Radiant Heating Panels from HCP, the specialist heating division of SAS International, have been tested to BS EN 14037, the dedicated British and European standard for ceiling mounted radiant panels supplied with water at temperatures below 120°C.
In the past radiant heater output was based on a large number of pan-European test methods for wall mounted radiators. This resulted in output figures which varied significantly depending on the country, test institute or certification scheme used.
BS EN 14037 was introduced to provide consistent and accurate output figures, ensuring energy efficiencies are realised in radiant heating specifications. Testing can only be carried out at two independently approved European test laboratories. HCP testing was performed by HLK in Stuttgart using typical Low Temperature Hot Water (LTHW).
