World Class Sports Floors for World Class Sports Centre


Inspiration Texture Colour T


exture, Colour and Design are increasingly important decisions when potential students choose a higher education college or university.


Research shows that over a third of students reject a college or university due to the lack of quality of its building and lack of facilities. The research involved 1,000 British students who were questioned over


their views on the quality of their university campus. With competition amongst universities and colleges becoming ever more


fierce, it’s little wonder these institutions are choosing to invest in excellent design. At Paragon Carpets our new range of Multi-level carpet tiles called the


Inspiration Collection focuses on colours and textures found in natural flora and fauna. This allows designers to create interesting aesthetics to encourage positive mood responses and productive students. Flooring colour and shape can also be used to generate unique wayfaring schemes rather than using a proliferation of expensive signage has confirmed Paragon as a unique and education focused manufacturer in the market.

Keele University optimises heating efficiency with newREMEHAboilers


R


emeha Quinta Ace 160 boilers have been installed at the Faculty of Medicine and


Health Sciences at Keele University to optimise heating efficiency and minimise environmental impact. Improved sustainability is a key strategic aim


for the University. One of the ways in which they address this is by ensuring that the heating service operates as efficiently as possible. This includes upgrading any older boilers to newer, more energy-efficient equipment. So when the time came to upgrade the two


ageing Remeha 3A boilers and one non- condensing HE boiler serving the David


Weatherall Building, the University was quick to act. The first requirement for the University was to


achieve high energy efficiencies and reduced NOx and CO emissions in compliance with Building Regulations. Access was a potential obstacle due to the


rooftop location of the plant room. The University was also keen to achieve the


heat demand as efficiently and effectively as possible, avoiding any disruption and ensuring a comfortable environment for improved wellbeing and productivity. To meet all these requirements, Ford-


Mainwaring’s Dave Alcock chose to install multiple boilers in a modular arrangement rather than select ‘like for like’ larger units. This configuration increases the turndown ratio which enables fluctuating heat load to be more accurately matched, improving seasonal efficiencies and reliability. Additionally, it allows the condensing boilers to operate at part load where they achieve their higher efficiencies. The Quinta Ace 160 is one of the most


advanced wall-hung boilers on the market. Built on the Remeha Quinta platform, it offers class- leading heat output to physical size ratio, enabling easier access through doorways and

lifts and greater flexibility in plantroom design. Cascade options for up to eight boilers, in-line or back-to-back, provide time-saving installation with on-site assembly. With in-built 0-10V and volt-free contacts, the Quinta Ace 160 can connect to any BMS without the need for additional parts.
