The building's sustainability credentials include an Air Source Heat Pump (ASHP), a renewable low carbon heat source providing low temperature heating via wet underfloor heating pipework and domestic hot water.
An array of Photo Voltaic panels on the roof will generate low voltage renewable electricity from sunlight with the ability to store any excess electricity generated with batteries complimenting the electric efficiency of the ASHP.
A Mechanical Ventiliation Heat Recovery System (MVHR) to be installed which removes stale damp air from bathrooms, utility cloakrooms and kitchen replacing the external fresh air gently warmed and filtered across a heat exchanger incorporating a summer bypass. Facilitating a 95% reduction in otherwise wasted heat and ensuring good quality air throughout the building especially for those with allergies and preventing condensation.
