Cosaf helps University achieve green status

The University of Bolton has chosen Cosaf's Breezair system to be installed in a number of rooms, providing a cool fresh atmosphere and optimum temperatures for staff and students.

According to People and Planet, the UK Higher Education (HE) sector emits more than 3 million tonnes of CO2 into the atmosphere every year, and is responsible for more than 1 million journeys daily.

Schools and universities emit 9.3 million tonnes of CO2 per year, and that's not counting the 1.2 million tonnes of CO2 emitted by people travelling to school/university by car.

The University of Bolton has seen a number of changes in recent years, to both its academic practices and the progressive development of their state of the art facilities.

However, environmental policy required attention.

The university employed Cosaf to install its Breezair system across a number of the site classrooms.

The Breezair unit is proven to be 80 per cent more resourceful than standard air conditioning units operating on 100 per cent fresh air with increased concentration levels, making a substantial difference to the indoor air quality, particularly significant in educational facilities.

It runs on low water consumption, low carbon emissions and no refrigerant compressor.

With the introduction of the environmentally responsible Breezair icons, as well as other eco-friendly improvements to electricity and lighting, the University of Bolton is on track for a much greener future.
