The Pinnacles is one of Sheffield’s leading student properties with a mix of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 bedroom apartments catering for both UK and international students.
The large, purpose-built student accommodation overlooking Victoria Quays is just a ten-minute walk from City Campus and the train station.
A key element of the required ongoing programme of maintenance was to overcome the problems associated with the existing heating control provision. Issues with students operating the system had not only led to an increase in complaints and maintenance requests but had resulted in an increase in energy consumption due to the heating controls being incorrectly operated.
The Sangamo Choice Plus Tamperproof Electronic Room Thermostat from ESP was specified as the solution to overcome the issues identified. To date, more than 200 of the thermostats in the white finish have been installed in the communal hallways of each of the flats, and they will continue to be installed on a rolling basis as the maintenance programme is carried out.
The Choice Plus electronic room controls are concealed by a discreet, tamperproof cover. The set point is adjusted and the cover is fitted to provide protection against accidental or purposeful incorrect operation.
