The scheme saw the introduction of a new cold water storage tank that had to be positioned on a strengthened ground floor slab complete with boosted main that then had to pass to each apartment and the boiler room at roof level before being distributed throughout the building via a communal heating system to each apartment. Each apartment was fitted with a HIU that then converted to heating or hot water demand to suit the end user’s needs. Localised ventilation systems were installed and vented for each apartment, provided by a system 3 ventilation unit. Access control was also a key feature of the security system installed in the building with each wing and floor being controlled independently.
Sustainability was achieved by the upgrading of existing windows, with new more efficient windows. We also incorporated additional insulation into the existing structure such as floors, roof voids and external walls to improve the performance and U-values of all elements of the existing structure.
