Client: Rooms and Studios / Shaylor Group 

BEC has been part of the team for two years designing apartment conversions to unoccupied office buildings in Croydon and London. To date, this has consisted of five sites with over 900 apartments. Heating and hot water systems have been based around the central boiler plant, serving heat exchange units in apartments. This allows for an energy efficient system with central billing linked to an off-site energy monitoring station.

Duties: Full detail design for the M&E contractor.

Client: Ashe Construction

New build 70 apartments over shell and core retail units. The project was a traditional build with relatively standard M&E services for an apartment development. Gas fired combi boilers serving radiators are provided in each flat, along with power derived from the main intake room at the rear of the retail units.

Duties: Full detail design, including thermal modelling.

Client: Rivers Trading Ltd

The project consisted of two parts. Refurbishment of a beautiful character property, with conversion into high-end apartments, along with a new build block to the same site. With the requirement to comply with Leicester City Council’s policy for renewable energy, a good proportion of the existing building has its heating and hot water generated by high-temperature air source heat pumps.

Duties: Full detail design, including SAP and EPC
