SPECIFYING HARDWOOD TIMBER DOORSETS
Props, videos and interesting practical demonstrations set Horne Engineering’s CPD presentations far apart from death- by-powerpoint offerings and gives the HORNE philosophy on how engineering can help mitigate the risk of retrograde contamination of hospital water systems. Some myths will be busted: how biofilm will attach to almost any surface, irrespective of its smoothness, and why removing your tap’s outlet fitting is a bad idea. The pros and cons of Chemical vs Thermal disinfection are discussed as well as the importance of elevated velocity flushing. 01505 321455

The seminar ‘Understanding Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery for Commercial applications’ from Airflow Developments Ltd guides the participant through the need for better indoor air quality in the UK and the benefits improved indoor air has on the inhabitants and the fabric of the building. Understand the technical aspects of a whole building approach to ventilation and the energy savings that can be achieved by implementing a ventilation strategy in commercial buildings that encompasses Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR). By explaining the principles of operation variants in equipment design, the drivers encouraging specification and the regulatory landscape, including European ErP legislation and its future, and Passive House approval, the participant will learn and understand the features and benefits that this technology can delivery for their projects. Studies have found that improving indoor air quality through providing fresh, clean, filtered, warmed air also has a positive benefit on productivity and occupant wellbeing, including reducing the symptoms of respiratory issues such as asthma. Using MVHR as part of an integrated ventilation system also helps the building to be assessed to BREEAM, the most widely used environmental for new buildings. 01494 525252
