What we did
G.E.E. replaced the existing heating plant with a full ASHP installation, including a new external concrete plinth, trenched external primary pipework into the plant room, heating emitter upgrades, and fabric improvements. Internal works were delivered within school holidays on a tight programme; plant room works were managed during term time.
Technologies installed
- 184 kW Air Source Heat Pump system
New reinforced concrete plinth for external ASHP units - Trenched external primary pipework into plant room
- Heat emitter upgrades across selected areas
- Suspended ceiling insulation and draught proofing
Key challenges and programme management
- Civil works including plinth construction and external trenching alongside live school operations
- Tight holiday-period programme with daily clean-up and working area segregation
- Emitter assessment and upgrades to suit reduced ASHP flow temperatures
