System Configuration
Scalable system configuration
Frigitorium is designed as a scalable chilled continuous flow system. Each installation uses the same core architecture, sized to suit the required capacity.
Same core architecture across every installation
Chilled glycol storage, refrigeration, heat exchange and circulation
Engineered cold water delivered to one or more atmospheric shower cubicles
Configurable on request, from a single Frigitorium through to ten cubicles
Two cubicles recommended as the ideal commercial minimum
Glycol tank, compressor capacity and circulation system sized to suit demand and throughput
As capacity increases, the system architecture remains the same — only the plant is sized up.
Energy Recovery
Optional heat recovery for hot water preheating
As Frigitorium produces chilled water, the refrigeration system also produces rejected heat. Where site design allows, that heat can be captured and recirculated to help preheat domestic hot water.
Uses recoverable compressor heat from chilled water production
Can offset a portion of hot shower water heating demand
Improves whole-of-site energy efficiency by turning waste heat into useful site energy
Supports a stronger operating-cost and environmental case for high-use gym and recovery facilities
Subject to site plumbing, hot water demand, plant configuration and final engineering design
Cold recovery and hot shower demand can be designed as part of the same energy story, rather than treated as separate operating loads.
Capital Efficiency
Scale efficiency
Frigitorium becomes more capital efficient as the number of cubicles increases. The shared plant is scaled rather than duplicated for every cubicle. Optional heat recovery can also improve whole-of-site efficiency by redirecting compressor heat into hot water preheating.
Same core system architecture across every installation
Refrigeration plant, glycol tank, heat exchanger, controls and circulation sized to suit capacity
Lower capital cost per Frigitorium position as the system scales
Optional heat recovery loop can be specified to help preheat site hot water
A ten cubicle installation typically delivers around 35% to 45% greater capital efficiency per cubicle than a two cubicle installation
Subject to final site layout, usage demand and refrigeration specification
Two cubicles are the ideal commercial minimum, with stronger efficiencies emerging as the system scales toward larger wellness, recovery, gym and high performance environments. Where cold water production and hot water demand are well matched, heat recovery can further strengthen the operating-cost case.
Environmental Responsibility
Environmentally responsible by specification
Frigitorium is designed to support a low-impact operating model from the outset, including the option to recover refrigeration heat for domestic hot water preheating.
Refrigeration system specified with a range of refrigerant options, including natural refrigerants where appropriate
Specification suited to the installation, performance requirements and local compliance settings
Closed-loop glycol heat transfer circuit, separate from the shower water
Recoverable refrigeration heat can be redirected to support domestic hot water preheating
Low-toxicity propylene glycol based solutions can be specified where required
Reliable thermal performance without the safety or environmental concerns of higher-risk fluids
Each system can be run on 100% renewable electricity where available
A cleaner operating profile for gyms, wellness centres, recovery studios, hotels and high-performance facilities, with less wasted heat where recovery is integrated into the site hot water system.
