Crystal Palace
The Crystal Palace National Sports Centre required specialist disabled toilet and shower facilities. The Centre has one of the oldest and largest hot water heating systems in the UK, which had to be preserved for its historical value.
ARD were commisioned for this extensive and complex project, because of their reputation for technical expertise and professional skill.

Shut off the Water

Two of our engineers starting to trace the valves in the basement boiler room that controls all the hot and cold water to the Centre.
We had to shut down a section to allow us to cut into the heating system and renew several radiators and rerun pipe work.

Tracing Continues
