Basment v Roof Plant Room

[nayconnor]

Good afternoon All,

please would you be able to explain to me the advantages of a roof mounted plant room rather than a basement plant room.

Also if possible would you be able to tell me the complication with regulations that you would experience when designing a basement plant room.

Kind Regards Nathan

It's usually as specified by the architect.

Roof mounted = loads of issues. Fixing plant, lifting in plant. Bundling earthing bigger services as its all up high. Birds birds birds birds birds birds .

Basement every time - providing it has one or more external door.
