Zebra Architects were commissioned to handle both the planning and technical work for the redevelopment of the historic Ice Works building in Worcester. The project involved a combination of newly constructed buildings and the conversion of a historic mill, creating a total of 54 apartments on Bromyard Road, St Johns, Worcester. The development was divided into three phases, with the final phase (Phase 3) focusing on the Mill block, comprising 12 two-bedroom apartments, all featuring underfloor heating throughout.For Phase 3, Resonate Systems’ GYPDECK 18 + UFH was selected due to the building's need for a high-performance soundproofing and underfloor heating solution. GYPDECK 18 dry screed panels were installed alongside ResoTherm XPS R insulation boards and ResoFleece, delivering a complete underfloor heating and acoustic system tailored to the residential nature of the development.Underfloor Heating Supply Limited were supplied with 900m² of Resonate Systems products for Phase 3. Stephen Featherstone, Director of Underfloor Heating Supply Limited, commented, "All product deliveries arrived on time and were well palletised. The installation process was straightforward, thanks to the comprehensive on-site training provided by Resonate Systems."This redevelopment project successfully combined historical preservation with modern living solutions, ensuring both aesthetic and functional excellence.

Cozia Systems were appointed as the main contractor for the installation of underfloor heating in a 1970s bungalow consisting of a lounge, kitchen, bathroom, and two bedrooms. The project featured Resonate's HEATBACKER underfloor heating panels, chosen for their low-profile and lightweight construction, and Kelmore's range of primers, adhesive, and levelling compounds to complete the installation.Kelmore products were selected for their compatibility with the project’s substrate conditions. The existing bitumen flooring posed challenges for usual adhesives selected for installation, so Cozia Systems used Kelmore Grip primer and tile adhesive to address the issue. The installation was completed using Kelmore’s universal primer and levelling compound, ensuring a smooth, reliable finish for the underfloor heating system. All Resonate boards are complimented by documents that list a process and best practice of laying Kelmore adhesives, primers and levellers.Cozia Systems used a total of 72.6m² of Resonate and Kelmore products in the retrofit. Ian Reading, Owner of Cozia Systems, praised the collaboration, stating that Resonate’s team was professional, efficient, and a pleasure to work with.

The Summerleaze development is a prestigious collection of 25 energy-efficient homes, consisting of 23 three, four, and five-bedroom houses, along with 2 one-bedroom flats, located in the picturesque village of Churchill, Somerset.
