Premier Technical Services Group Ltd (PTSG) is to provide specialist fire solutions specifically, sprinkler systems at a residential scheme currently in development in Kingston Upon Thames.
Hawks Road is situated to the East of Kingston town centre adjoining the Cambridge Road Estate (CRE). The 100 per cent affordable scheme, comprising 125 high quality affordable rent and shared ownership homes, is being developed on the former Hawks Road Health Clinic site in Kingston upon Thames, Surrey, which became surplus to NHS requirements after health services were moved to other sites in the borough.
The proposal uses a fabric first approach, specifying high performance U-values for the thermal envelope and providing arrays of solar photovoltaic panels on areas of south-facing roof alongside air source heat pumps. This means that the building envelope will be energy efficient, resulting in low energy consumption and less CO2 emissions. In addition, sustainable technologies will also be included in the proposal. This car-free development in a sustainable location along with improvements to the public realm, generous landscaping and new community/commercial use at ground level will all contribute to the quality re-development of this part of Kingston.
In this contract, engineers from PTSG Fire Solutions Ltd will install a brand-new sprinkler system. Sprinklers are widely considered to be the most effective method of fighting the spread of fire in its early stages. The installation of fire sprinklers can virtually eliminate fire deaths, which is the intention of PTSG at the new Hawks Road residential development.
