The Grange Senior School 6th Form, Hartford

We had previously designed the M&E services for The Grange Junior School sports hall redevelopment.  Due to the project’s success, we were invited to produce the full detailed M&E designs for the Senior School Sixth Form and Sports Hall.  The School was keen to deliver 10% renewable energy sources.  This was achieved by working closely with the rest of the Design Team; and including Solar and PV panels along with highly efficient ground source heat pumps.  The lighting systems include LED technology along with open protocol Dali control systems.

The buildings are complex in their design to meet the client’s high expectations.  The Council’s Planning Department was concerned about the building’s impact on the local residential area.  Therefore, we undertook detailed external lighting pollution calculations and predictions and minimised any potential noise pollution from the mechanical plant.
