The 10m x 15m ‘Cool Workspace’ structure will provide a unique insight into the sustainable office of the future and has been designed to showcase how companies can reduce energy by up to 50% through the use of the latest sustainable technologies, increase productivity and take advantage of the latest innovative commercial models for funding.
The space will be split into two zones. One will comprise of a more traditional office-based environment while the other will highlight a space for home working, reflecting the trend towards spaces that are multi-functional, enabling the user to work and live in the same place.
The Lo-Carbon™ Sentinel Kinetic range comprises wholehouse mechanical ventilation units, offering up to 92% heat recovery (MVHR).
This whole house, multi-ducted solution combines supply and extract ventilation in one unit. Warm, moist air is extracted from the ‘wet’ rooms through ducting and passed through the heat exchanger before being exhausted to the outside. Fresh incoming air is preheated via the integral heat exchanger which recovers up to 92% of the energy which would otherwise be wasted. The range features energy saving DC motors to improve efficiency and carbon reducing capabilities still further.
Specially designed for new build constructions with a high level of insulation, the Lo-Carbon™ Sentinel Kinetic range is ideal for increasingly airtight homes and complies with the UK Building Regulations Document F as well as meeting the Level 4 requirements of the Code for Sustainable Homes (CfSH).
Ecobuild – www.ecobuild.co.uk takes place from Tuesday 1st March to Thursday 3rd March at ExCeL, London. Capita Symonds’ ‘Cool Workspace’ installation is situated at S240, entrance S1.
