The expansion of the Saint-Pierre hospital involves construction of a new block including a car park, a logistics department, a medical technology department, a treatment department and a large laboratory.
In a hospital, comfort is a very important factor. Proper thermal and acoustic comfort, but also adequate hygienic ventilation, must be ensured. Moreover, a hospital also contains a variety of medical apparatus consuming a great deal of energy.
In addition to good insulation of the shell of the building and optimisation of the heating, cooling and ventilation techniques, an organised central control system that guarantees efficient implementation of all these techniques has also been chosen, along with rainwater recovery and night ventilation.
