St Catherines RPAC demanded the best and Armcor provided it. Rotary Wheel ERV give the efficiency advantage for St Catherines RPAC project.
St Catherines School have invested heavily in the Research, Performing Arts & Aquatic Centre (RPAC) Building. This integrated complex comprises of:
– A 12 lane indoor swimming pool and adjacent learn to swim pool,
– A state of the art 450+ seat theatre with fly tower and orchestra pit,
– Multipurpose hall which doubles as an large foyer to the theatre,
– Modern double story research centre
– Addition to the existing sports centre

One of the largest Rotary Wheel units Armcor has built, was constructed in two sections each with a rotary wheel, fans, filters. To be joined on site, this unit will handle 16,000 l/sec in the main pool area, providing the best energy recovery available for such an installation. In addition, the specification demanded stainless steel coils within the unit casing.
With specifically selected Heat Wheels that can withstand the corrosive atmosphere of pool environments, the ‘oversize’ equipment was delivered to site on low bed transport.
