Kelsick is full of green initiatives!
Sheep wool insulation (cosy wool)
installed throughout - added to the roof void across the whole
existing building.
Extensions have been
fully insulated and designed for
solar gain
through solar windows.
Greywater to all flushing toilets.
We have a storage tank on the hill
collecting fell water that can be used for vehicle washing.
Attenuation tanks installed in the car
park to prevent flooding.
Solar panels have been installed to
provide 20% of our energy.
Energy efficient boilers to new
extension.
Low energy LED lighting fitted
throughout.
Lime plaster in existing building so
walls can breathe.
Sedum roof - providing important
microclimates for insects, bird life and other species. It
significantly reduces the surface run-off of rainfall.
