Minister Sean Haughey opens Grangegorman school
Roankabin's Grangegorman Project has scored air test rating of 4.38*. The new Educate Together school was officially opened by Minister Sean Haughey recently.

According to current building regulations (Part L 2007) 'a performance level of 10m3/h/m2 represents a reasonable upper limit for air permeability'. The Dept of Education and Science has specified an upper limit for air permeability of 5 m3/hr/m2 at 50 Pa, a far superior level than that recommended in Part L. The Roankabin Building at Grangegorman, when pressure tested, achieved an impressive result of 4.3 m3/hr/m2 at 50 Pa which exceeds all requirements and contributes greatly to the Energy Efficiency of the school.

*0 is the best result and 10 is the standard value to comply with building regulations.
