School ventilation

In the dynamic landscape of educational infrastructure, where the need for superior ventilation is paramount, VES stands as a beacon of innovation and excellence.
Our commitment to delivering optimal indoor air quality aligns seamlessly with the meticulous guidelines outlined in BB101, ensuring that schools foster an environment conducive to learning and well-being.
Schools come in diverse designs, each requiring a tailored approach to ventilation. Whether it’s single-sided, cross, or stack ventilation systems, VES has the expertise and a versatile range of products to meet the unique demands of every design concept.
Our solutions encompass a spectrum of ventilating systems, from the natural grace of the environment, through hybrid configurations, to the precision of mechanical systems.

At VES, we understand the intricacies of compliance and go beyond the norm.
Our products not only adhere to BB101 but also align with ErP regulations, boasting heat recovery efficiencies exceeding 80%. Additionally, our specific fan powers are well below the minimum requirements specified in Part L2 of the Building Regulations and Section 6 (Energy) of the Building (Scotland) Regulations, reinforcing our commitment to energy efficiency and sustainability. In a world where acoustics matter, VES takes pride in surpassing the standards set out in BB93, ensuring that our ventilation systems not only provide fresh air but also maintain the serenity crucial for effective learning environments.

Our products feature high-capacity heating/cooling coils, specially designed for compatibility with low-grade heating and cooling systems. This innovative solution exemplifies our dedication to offering cutting-edge technology that enhances both comfort and energy efficiency

VES Classroom Solutions

Classroom ventilation is pivotal for the well-being and productivity of both students and educators. Creating the ideal classroom environment poses a considerable challenge, especially when acknowledging the diverse built environments of schools.

We acknowledge that a uniform strategy may not always be appropriate, considering factors such as aging infrastructure, budget constraints, maintenance requirements, and integration needs. Therefore, we offer a diverse range of products to cater to various situations and installations. This variety allows us to provide multiple ventilation options.

Optimised for a crossvent strategy, our principal classroom solution consists of a high-efficiency heat recovery unit paired with a high-capacity fan coil unit. Other options include using two heat recovery units, a combination of a heat recovery unit and a hybrid unit, or implementing a pair of hybrid units. By considering these alternatives, educators and facility managers gain valuable insights into adapting ventilation strategies to specific classroom settings, ensuring a conducive and healthy learning environment for students.
