Panasonic A/C enhances resident comfort at Royal Alfred
Seafarers’ Society’s care home The Belvedere House Care Home, part of the Royal Alfred Seafarers’ Society in Banstead, Surrey, recently completed a signifi cant modernisation project, incorporating state-of-the-art climate control systems to ensure optimal resident comfort and improve the indoor air quality.
W
ith a focus on residents’ health and wellbeing, mechanical services and A/C installation company, Technicool Air Conditioning, selected three Panasonic VRF 2-pipe units, 58 ducted units for bedrooms, and an additional twin system for the communal areas. The seamless operation of the entire system is managed through a centralised control panel, enhancing both effi ciency and convenience.
The chosen Panasonic VRF 2-pipe system not only meets the energy-saving and reliability requirements but also introduces nanoe X technology to elevate indoor air hygiene. Recognising the paramount importance of health post- pandemic, Belvedere care home sought a solution that could inhibit the transmission of airborne pathogens. The nanoe X generator extracts invisible moisture from the air, generating hydroxyl radicals that eff ectively impede the growth of viruses, bacteria, and allergens. This technology operates independently in fan mode, ensuring continuous protection 24/7. Nick Potroanchenu, estate manager at Royal Alfred
Seafarers’ Society, emphasised the signifi cance of nanoe X technology in today’s environment. He stated, “The added benefi t of nanoe X was the main attraction of the Panasonic units for this essential modernisation of Belvedere House, particularly as the project started in 2021 during the COVID- 19 restrictions. We wanted to inhibit the virus and shield our residents and staff as much as possible in the future.”

Steven Trowbridge, Service Manager for Technicool Air Conditioning, highlighted their positive experience, noting the reliability and energy effi ciency of Panasonic systems. Belvedere House care home remained operational throughout the staged installation, minimising disruption for residents and staff . Steve further praised the collaboration with Panasonic’s Spec and Technical Teams, emphasising their responsiveness
