Piaseczno is a suburb of Warsaw. The proximity of the commune to agglomerations of Warsaw exerts a favourable impact on development, resulting in the highest inner migration and large number of completed flats and houses. It is predicted that the amount of inhabitants will increase to over 80,000 during 5 years.

In the north part of the city multi-storey housing estates are located. In the south part of the commune (Julianów, Józefosław) complexes of 2-3 storey buildings are located. In the south part of the commune among forests and fields people build houses and residences on their own plots (1,000 – 4,000 square meters)..

The project focuses on a new school building for the Municipality of Piaseczno. The school was finished in September 2003. The school has been designed to optimise daylight and natural ventilation. The classrooms have a good height and the outdoor air will be taken through special ducts.

A natural gravitation ventilation system has been designed for the school with the exception of canteen and kitchen, cloakroom and bathroom, and gymnastic hall where a mechanically ventilation system will be implemented.

 

Heat balance and mechanical ventilation:

As a part of the Green Solar Region project one typical classroom has been equipped with Heating Recovery Ventilation ECOMASTER R 800 unit for schools supplied by PV panel. It is a compact ventilation design with low electricity use, high efficient heat recovery, and no noise - less than 25 dB.

Below you find an interesting aspect for inspiration to other builders.

• PV operated ventilation system with heat recovery
• Monitoring results from ventilation system
• Environmental lessons for school children and teachers
