PROJECT OVERVIEW

To replace all existing domestic hot water pipework within the whole building and replace in copper. The building was built in 2003 through PFI Contract, the user has suffered poor water temperature for many years due to the George Fischer plastic pipework originally installed.

Jackwolf Group secured through a two stage process (best cost and quality score). Working with the NHS Estates team and their consultant Clancy, we took the outline employers requirements and worked up full designs together with costs. This provided a full design and cost without risk to the NHS Trust. To ensure the operating hospital is not affected a 22 phase programme was devised on which we formulated a zonal plan with temporary services to maintain amenities to all departments.

 

CONTRACT VALUE: £1.9m

JACKWOLF'S SOLUTION

The overarching requirement is to ensure hospital facilities continue without disturbance.

Jackwolf Group’s solution was to undertake the works over a series of weekends. Through careful zoning of portions of the building, we isolated areas removed existing and installed new mixing valves. Commencing on Saturday morning, we completed by Sunday am, leaving time for NHS Water Safety Group to undertake cleansing and testing of the installation, then thoroughly clean and leave site.
