Summary
Heritage Woods Secondary sets a precedent for providing students with a high quality indoor and outdoor environment that models holistic decision making.
Highlights include a ground source heat pump for heat recovery, a high density boiler backup system, mechanical metering, and direct digital controls to monitor building performance. Separate exhaust systems have been installed for science fume hoods, food room stoves, art room kilns, and administration photocopiers.
Natural lighting and ventilation are maximized by siting the building on an east-to-west axis, and designing academic spaces around a central daylit atrium.
