'Joust' a Minute isn't that a Reznor Heater??

Sarah Witts, “We wanted a highly economical heater that would achieve good performance and financial returns,” Reznor met all the requirements; providing a V3 Gas-Fired Warm Air Heater keeping a constant of 16ºC and due to its efficiency fewer heaters are required.

 

Enter the magic world of Kidz Paradise and a warm atmosphere will greet you at the doors of its giant medieval jousting tent.

 

This particular medieval tent used to be much colder – almost freezing, in fact, when it was used for its original purpose as a chiller room for milk. The building was formerly a dairy depot, but it now sees much more lively activity as a brand new children’s play facility in Chartham, near Canterbury, with capacity for 280 youngsters.

 

The 250m² building has been imaginatively converted. In addition to the medieval jousting tent, there are rooms themed around butterflies, Peter Pan and wizards. Even the toilets are decked out like dungeons.

 

A Reznor V3 gas-fired warm air heater keeps the medieval tent/ chiller room at a constant 16°C, a perfect temperature for active kids. The single unit delivers warm air into the room and roof-mounted de stratification fans ensure it is distributed evenly throughout, eliminating cold spots or temperature stratification. The excellent throw of the V3 means that fewer heaters are required to achieve constant comfort temperatures.

 

At the entrance to the room, two electric over door air curtains from Airbloc prevent heat from escaping or cooler air infiltrating from other parts of the building. The existing 50mm insulation in the walls helps maintain temperatures without having to run the heater for long periods.

 

The Reznor V3 is listed on the government Energy Technology Listing, making it eligible for Enhanced Capital Allowances, a key selling point for the play centre’s owner and creator, Sarah Witts. “We wanted a highly economical heater that would achieve good performance and financial returns,” Ms Witts comments. “The Reznor V3 is proving to be efficient and effective in keeping the area warm. It heats up rapidly and only needs to be switched on for a portion of the day to maintain a comfortable atmosphere.”
