Covid-19 Airborne Transmission Control

With airborne transmission of Covid-19 in buildings possibly amplified by building services, BSE FM are here to help you reduce the spread of Covid-19 particles in your building.

Whether you are looking to reopen your premises, or are currently open, we are here to reduce the risk of airborne transmission of Covid-19 and therefore the risk of infection to your staff, customers and visitors.

Covid-19 is a small particle of less than 1 micron that can exist in the air for up to three hours and travel long distances. Ventilation services in buildings can enable the virus to travel further, and therefore increase the risk of infection to the building occupants. The following measures outline how BSE FM can help your business.

Supply and Extract Ventilation

The current advice is to increase the supply of outside air as far is practicable. We can review your mechanical ventilation and increase its operation time to maintain fresh air to the building. Additionally, we recommend that where you have fewer staff, avoid moving the staff to a smaller space, instead keep them in a larger space to increase the proportion of fresh air per person.

Exhaust ventilation in WCs should be put into continuous operation, with negative pressure ensured to reduce the faecal-oral transmission route as recognised the the World Health Organisation (WHO).

Heat Recovery

Heat recovery devices that do not prevent cross contamination, such as rotary heat exchangers (e.g. thermal wheels), should be turned off. This will prevent coronavirus particles removed by the exhaust system reentering the building through the supply ducts. 

Heat recovery equipment that does guarantee the separation of air, and therefore does not risk airborne transmission from exhaust to supply, can remain in operation.

BSE FM can assess whether or not your current heat recovery devices can remain in operation during the current climate. If taken out of operation, once the advice changes we can put your heat recovery plant back into operation.

Recirculation Systems

Like the recommendation to stop operation of heat recovery devices that do not guarantee air separation, recirculation within ventilation systems should also be avoided. Recirculation applies to both centralised plant (such as air handling units), and local plant (such as fan coil units).

BSE FM can inspect your current system and reconfigure it where necessary to reduce the risk posed to the building occupants. We can either turn off equipment, of where that is not practical, we can implement a strict cleaning schedule of the required equipment. Both routes will help reduce the risk of airborne transmission through ventilation systems in your building.

World Refrigeration Day 2019

The Institute of Refrigeration are campaigning to raise the profile of air conditioning and heats pumps and the contribution they make globally during the first annual World Refrigeration Day on 26th June 2019.

BSE FM are proud to be taking the lead in the use of innovative products to meet the latest legislation and regulations.  Our aim:

‘To use state-of-the-art cutting edge engineered technology, with an emphasis on energy efficiency to reduce carbon footprints.’

The innovative air conditioning systems available today offer both cooling and heating options simultaneously, delivering optimum comfort for individuals and businesses requirements in the most efficient way possible whilst reducing overall energy consumption.

‘Refrigeration technologies are essential and yet go widely unrecognised’ – Institute of Refrigeration about World Refrigeration day.

Refrigeration spans many aspects of life, controlling thermal applications for:

  • Comfort – heating/cooling
  • Critical processes – cooling data centres
  • Leisure – ice rinks, gyms, swimming pools
  • Specific activities – operating theatres

Global population is increasing, the demand for more facilities is increasing. According to a report by the International Energy Agency, worldwide demand is expected to triple over the next 30 years.

The BSE FM team are fully qualified to install and maintain, future and existing refrigeration systems.

We are already advising clients using our comprehensive knowledge and expertise. If you would like assistance or have any questions relating to refrigeration requirements please contact the office or mail@bsefm.com

Central Sussex College

Chichester College and Central Sussex College formally merged in 2017.

More than 20 organisations applied to take over the Haywards Heath sixth form college site and West Sussex County Council has announced that the Chichester College Group has been selected as its preferred choice to run the site.

This is excellent news for Haywards Heath, giving children the opportunity to attend a fantastic facility locally that has been left dormant for many years.

Chichester College is the largest group in Sussex and will provide high quality learning opportunities for around 25,000 students each year.

BSE FM are delighted to announce that we have been appointed to carry out essential maintenance and refurbishment work of their heating systems ready for the anticipated opening in 2020.
