A Plant Room Refit & Cold-Water Upgrade for a local Bristol school.
Overview
This project at a primary school in Bristol was completed during the summer of 2021.
The school needed a lot of care due to several issues in and around the grounds. For some time, there had been continuous high-temperature readings on the cold-water supply and the internal pipework had reduced flow in several areas.
The heating system was outdated, and the existing boilers were failing most winters. Everything combined meant that the school was in a particularly vulnerable position before heading into the colder months.
What was the solution?
Our engineers set to work and completed the replacement of the entire cold-water system.
The plant room was given a new lease of life with 2 x condensing Vaillant boilers boasting elevated levels of efficiency. They were connected to the existing pipework via a strainer, a dirt & air separator, and a plate heat exchanger, to protect the new system from the old.
Our Electrical team wired all the fan convectors and their sensors, in addition to a new control system.
This was another example displaying the convenience of having Mechanical & Electrical requirements cared for under one roof.
What was the result?
The project was finished within the 6-week timeframe and exceeded expectations. Students and staff arrived back at the school in September to consistent and reliable levels of comfort.
Long-term savings and a lowered energy demand continue to help the primary school all year round.
