Case Study - Crackley Hall School, Kenilworth

Airtherm Engineering Limited worked with Trendgrey Construction Limited to complete the installation of a twin wall stainless steel, four hour fire rated flue installation at Crackley Hall School, Kenilworth. We also installed our Solatube Day Lighting system in several classrooms and corridors.

The new extensions at Crackley Hall School will provide new specialist classrooms, a new hall and music centre. As Crackley Hall is a historic building and is set within a residential context, we worked closely with our client and the local planning authority to develop an appropriate solution for the termination of the products of combustion.

Extension tubes are available in lengths of 610mm (straight) or 380mm long incorporating a 0-30° adjustable angle along with the new 0-90° angle unit. All reflective tubes – including adjustable tubes – are manufactured from 99.7% reflective Spectralight Infinity material, allowing tube lengths of up to 15 metres for the SolaMaster 330 DS.
