As part of Three Snowhill’s washroom specification, contractor BAM selected Geberit Duofix prewall installation frames and Twyford 3D wall-hung toilets.
A key factor in the specification of Geberit Duofix was its ease of installation. Installing the pre-wall frame system reduced the complexities often association with wall-hung ceramics, with the entire system designed with versatility, installation and ease of maintenance in mind. Crucially, this made it easier to install the frames within the development’s smaller washrooms.
The cisterns are concealed inside a drywall, eliminating the need for additional, carefully positioned studding. The result for Three Snowhill was a strong, reliable and leak free finish, thanks to its one-piece blow moulded cistern, angle bracket fixings and snap connectors.
Offering complete flexibility, the Twyford 3D wall-hung toilets take up no floor space, creating the illusion of a larger area, and reducing the prospect of dust and dirt build up compared to close coupled toilets.
Overall, the Twyford wall-hung ceramics blended seamlessly with the project’s premium theme, transforming the various sizes and shapes of the washrooms into stylish and spacious areas.
Geberit Mapress Copper was selected as the supply system for a variety of the project’s pipework applications, including heating, chilled water and potable water.
A key reason for the specification was due to its attributes of speed and simplicity compared to conventional pipework connections – a key requirement due to the sheer volume of pipework being installed. The whole process takes much less time to install compared to traditional counterparts and lowered labour costs in comparison to conventional connection technology.
Mapress also fulfilled the development’s stringent health and safety guidelines. With no requirement for hot works, the process is extremely clean and reduced risk of fire to the wider building compared to soldered alternatives.
