Education

Across the education industry, heating and hot water are, usually, the most expensive annual cost for many facilities around the UK, with often significant, yet varied, usage patterns. With 50 years’ worth of experience behind us, Adveco has been serving schools, colleges and universities with systems that maximise contributions to your buildings’ overall efficiency.

With a proven link between classroom temperatures and productivity, we, at Adveco, understand the importance of maintaining a comfortable study environment, but more than that we recognise the multi-functional demands of modern schools’ estates, from classroom to boarding and sports facilities.

New construction and the refurbishment of existing properties is going to become increasingly important as the Government puts more pressure on organisations to achieve net-zero by 2050. That construction work will need to meet the green agenda, and Adveco is expertly positioned to help with meeting the demands for heating and hot water that are efficient, cost-effective to secure and operate, and be seen to be sustainable.

And services that also recognise the importance of delivering greater sustainability. With a varied range of requirements, our Heating and Hot Water solutions can help maintain efficiency and sustainability to the following demands:

Main School Buildings’ heating

• Boarding Houses & University Halls
• Swimming Pools & Showers
• Bathrooms & Kitchens

One of the greatest challenges facing schools and Universities is the need to upgrade old, tired building stock to address the demands of modern education communities. Adveco has broad experience refurbishing traditional buildings with modern technology, merging the two effectively and efficiently. Where space limitations would normally preclude larger-scale development without extensive building work, Adveco can adjust recommendations to your specific building’s requirements and unlocking value from unused space with our packaged plant rooms. These bespoke prefabricated systems make full use of vacant space whilst leveraging all the advantages of offsite construction for hybrid and all-electric heating and hot water applications.

• No matter how many guests there may be, always provide access to hot water at a consistent maintained temperature for an average of eight-minutes of showering – that’s about 76 litres per guest, per shower, with applications designed to meet instantaneous demands
• Secure and reuse ‘free’ heat otherwise wasted from walk-in freezers or chilled spaces in kitchens
• Regain valuable space within the building that can be converted into rooms by relocating hot water and heating plant to unused exterior spaces, including flat roofs, with built-to-order prefabricated plant rooms
• Embrace sustainability with quietly efficient Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHP) and Solar Thermal systems to offset as much as 70% of your heating energy demands
