Decentralised mechanical extract ventilation equipment from Polypipe Ventilation has been used in a new residential conversion from a former police station in Harrogate.
The Old Police Station, which is being marketed by national property agents Carter Jonas, is a development of apartments and houses created within a handsome Grade II listed building dating back to 1927. It has been sympathetically restored by developers Harrogate Restoration, with carefully retained period features, but with all the benefits of 21st century living.
As part of the conversion, energy efficient heating and ventilation has been installed throughout. This includes Silavent Sapphire dMEV centrifugal fans to provide continuous ventilation to bathrooms.
With a low specific fan power (SFP) down to 0.29W/l/s and very quiet operation down to 18dB(A), the Sapphire dMEV was the natural choice for a project where the latest ventilation technology and heritage are paramount.
