Bedwell MEP delivered full mechanical and electrical (M&E) engineering design services for Enhance’s purpose-built flagship facility at Lancaster Way Business Park in Ely, Cambridgeshire.
Designed to redefine modern dental care, the state-of-the-art complex incorporates nine clinical surgeries, an oral surgery and implant suite, an inhalational sedation clinic, and a national teaching center for dental professionals. To support these highly specialized clinical environments, our building services consultancy engineered a high-performance infrastructure capable of delivering strict environmental control, reliable public health systems, and exceptional energy efficiency.
Embracing Enhance’s commitment to advanced technology and sustainability, the facility’s fabric was engineered to exceed standard Building Regulations with ultra-low air permeability and optimized U-values. This low-demand design allowed Bedwell MEP to implement a fully electric building services strategy, eliminating fossil fuels through air source heat pump (ASHP) technology for both domestic hot water generation and climate control. The complete M&E scope featured Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) heat recovery systems, specialized clinical supply and extract ventilation, roof-mounted photovoltaic (PV) solar arrays, automated control systems, high-efficiency lighting, and integrated security infrastructure.
