Over 400 Titon SFX sound attenuator vents and Sobinco Chrono side-hung windows with night vent device adaption have been used throughout the new St Mungo’s student accommodation complex at St James Road, Glasgow.
The new property opened in September 2018, offering en-suite and studio apartments for students at the University of Strathclyde. Developers Watkin Jones worked alongside Glasgow-based Marshall Brown (Windows), with the latter specifying, supplying and installing all the windows for the project.
Brian Ross, commercial manager at Marshall Brown (Windows), said: “When considering the window options for this building, we knew side hung products were preferable to meet the increased ventilation requirements. The windows also had to provide a night vent function which, when working in conjunction with the SFX sound attenuator vents, would provide the required trickle ventilation for each room. Having used Titon’s hardware and vents on numerous past projects, we knew these would provide a robust solution that would suit long term use with a student accommodation environment.”
Titon’s SFX sound attenuator is a compact slot ventilator designed to provide superior levels of sound attenuation compared to similar ’acoustic’ products.
