Pipe boxing, maintenance & tenant satisfaction.

Latest News Thu, Apr 27, 2023 9:27 AM

With the new tenant satisfaction measures (TSM) now in force, maintaining quality standards and completing work within acceptable time frames, has become even more important when planning social housing maintenance, heating improvements and safety upgrades.

Although concealing pipework for sprinklers, heating systems and utilities forms only part of the full scope of RMI activities provided by HA and LA's, the potential for minimising the impact on tenants, while maintaining satisfaction levels, can be helped by using Encasement pre-formed pipe boxing and casings.

As exposed interior and exterior pipework usually needs concealing to improve safety or aesthetics, often the only option for securing retrofitted pipework, such as fire sprinkler system installations or low-carbon heating solutions, is surface mounting.

A key advantage of surface mounting is the simplicity and comparative speed of installation, which helps keep costs under control. Clearly, choosing a method of concealment that is also quick and easy to install, makes sound economic and practical sense.

For interior applications, our Riva; Versa 5 and Versa 8 pre-formed plywood boxing options, have become the preferred solution for many social housing providers and contractors, and are in widespread use in projects across the UK.

For exterior services, such as distributed heating and ground source loop array pipework, or air source heat pump installations, Arma metal casings provide tough and durable protection, as they are bespoke manufactured from 2mm thick aluminium to the project’s specifications.

All Encasement plywood boxing is manufactured from UKTR compliant, sustainably sourced timber and is pre-finished with a white decorative resin impregnated paper, as standard, which removes the need for painting, further helping save time and money on site.
