OUR CLIENT
Entrust, part of Capita, partners with over 6,000 schools and multi-academy trusts (MATs) across the UK, helping educators focus on what matters most – teaching and inspiring the next generation. One of their valued clients, Thursfield Primary School, is a village school renowned for its warm and nurturing environment. The school takes pride in fostering a happy, caring, and family-oriented atmosphere where every child is encouraged and inspired to reach their full potential.
THE BRIEFING
The school required a comprehensive heating system upgrade to improve energy efficiency. This included the installation of new boilers, complete replacement of pipework, radiant ceiling panels, and associated electrical works. The project spanned multiple areas of the building, including several classrooms, the school hall, and the school office, to deliver a modern, energy-efficient solution tailored to the school’s needs.
IN THE END
The works were carried out with minimal disruption to the site, maintaining a safe and secure environment for all staff and pupils throughout. All existing pipework and radiators were fully removed and replaced with modern, fully insulated piping and energy-efficient radiators. Additionally, the existing ceilings in the foyer, teaching rooms, and school office were carefully removed and replaced with new radiant ceiling systems designed to complement the new heating panels.
Our in-house engineers carried out the full installation and commissioning of each system including:
• Taking down the existing ceilings and reinstall to new layout to suit new heater panels
• Removal of all plant works and pipework
• Replacement Heat Source
• Back up boiler install
• Control interface for plant areas
• Plant room electrical works from section board to new location
• Replacement radiators to RP and replacement coils
• Pipe work upgrades across the site
• Magna heating pumps supplying each circuit
• Heating plant protection per plant room
• Thermal insulation for pipework
• Commissioning testing system and various zone valves
The result is a significantly warmer, more comfortable, and energy-efficient school environment.
