William Morris Energy Centre, Coventry University

• Client: Envirotech Ltd
• Location: Coventry University
• Duration: 7 months

D & T Mechanical was contracted to de-commission, remove, supply and install a new energy centre and plantroom.  Key works included:

• Pipework serving: boilers, CHP, chillers, blast air coolers, buffer vessels, plate heat exchangers, pumps, filtration units and expansion vessels.
• Installation of advanced control systems (differential pressure valves, PICVs, double regulating control valves).
• Heating, chilled and gas systems (welded/threaded).
• Hot, cold and boosted water services (brazed/soldered).

Above-ground and condensate drainage systems.

This was a live environment project in an operational university. The works required careful phasing and temporary systems to ensure minimal disruption while delivering a complex, traditional-design build.

Envirotech selected D & T Mechanical for their trusted, transparent approach and their ability to offer turnkey pipework solutions.

Key strengths D & T delivered:

• Problem-solving collaboration: working closely with Envirotech to adapt designs and resolve challenges.
• Offsite fabrication: providing pre-fabricated pipework to accelerate delivery and reduce onsite risks.
• Trust and transparency: operating as an open, reliable partner throughout the project.

The project was delivered within tight timescales, while keeping the university’s heating and hot water live throughout. D & T Mechanical’s complete pipework package added significant value, reinforcing their position as a dependable mechanical subcontractor.
