Oventrop’s projects division has designed, supplied, installed and commissioned a 2000 m2 Cofloor underfloor heating system at the new Cardiff & Vale College. This campus covers an area of 16 000 m2 and is close to the centre of Cardiff. It will eventually house 4000 students, 250 staff and offer 200 course options.

The site was complex in design, having a mixture of large open spaces and an array of rooms with varying shapes and sizes, which all required significantly different levels of heat.

Oventrop’s Cofloor Tacker system was selected for its high output and flexibility. Each of the stainless-steel manifolds was coupled to a Regufloor HN pump units with blending and high limit control.

The complete system is controlled with a networked controls system supplied and installed as part of the package.
