Ivy House School Heating System Modernisation

EP Consulting successfully executed an £82k two-phase project at Ivy House School in Derby, aimed at modernising the school's heating system. This project involved replacing the unreliable biomass boiler plant with gas-fired modular boilers, significantly enhancing energy efficiency and reliability.

Scope of Work

Our team provided a comprehensive suite of services, including feasibility studies, budget costing, and mechanical design. The project included the installation of five advanced gas-fired modular boilers, along with flues, primary pumps, and associated pipework and equipment. All work was completed in full compliance with Part L2 Building Regulations, ensuring optimal performance and energy efficiency.

Challenges and Solutions

The project required careful planning to minimise disruption to the school's daily activities. EP Consulting's meticulous approach facilitated a seamless transition from the old biomass system to the new gas-fired setup, significantly improving the school's heating efficiency and reliability.

Results and Impact

Completed within an 8-week timeframe, the project has successfully upgraded Ivy House School's heating infrastructure. The new system delivers enhanced performance, contributing to a more comfortable and energy-efficient environment for students and staff.
