The Madani Schools Federation, located opposite the SPC offices in Leicester, is one of the oldest independent Muslim schools in Britain. The school is the new home of the Leicester Islamic Academy (LIA) secondary school, which was built to address the 1,398 shortfall forecast for secondary school places in Leicester.
SPC supplied Thermatile TEN-TWELVE Radiant Heating Panels for classrooms and corridors throughout the school.
Designed by Pick Everard and installed by Robert Prettie, the powder-coated radiant panels were installed in the suspended ceiling of the school and are virtually unnoticeable freeing up valuable wall and floor space.
The Thermatile TEN-TWELVE radiant panels have a unique linear strip panel joining system meaning they can be fitted by nearly anyone – cutting down on extra labour costs. They also have a composite aluminium sheet structure, providing a rigid flat panel which can be made to any specified size, shape and colour to enhance the architectural design of a room.
The ceiling-mounted radiant panels emit radiant heat to warm room occupants directly and the air indirectly, resulting in lower heat losses and energy savings. The radiant panels can either be suspended just below a ceiling, or fitted into a suspended ceiling.
