Underfloor Heating Or Cooling: New Line Learning Academy Can Choose At The Flick Of A Switch
Thermo-Floor has recently commissioned the system installed at the New Line Learning Academy in Kent, Maidstone’s first rebuilt academy. The project, managed by Carillion, has taken 82 weeks and has cost £24 million.
Warren Evans, Project Manager from Thermo-Floor explains:”This project specified the latest industry advancements using Modern Methods of Construction in order to satisfy the requirements of the outstanding facilities they were striving to achieve. We were bought on board by SPIE Matthew Hall to install a 6500m² underfloor heating or cooling system which will provide a comfortable environment for students, ensuring enhanced creativity and productivity. Underfloor systems which can either heat or cool are growing in popularity to ensure the temperature is regulated whatever the weather outside, providing a more consistent, accurate and energy efficient solution than those systems that work independently of each other”.
“The cost of installing underfloor heating is fast becoming comparable to a more conventional system with radiators, especially when you take into consideration the huge savings to be made because of the system’s lower running costs. Thermo-Floor continues to offer systems that meet the key considerations of projects of today, with a mind to fulfil the sustainability considerations of tomorrow”.
