SMP install Hyperbaric Chamber into Children’s School in Manchester

SMP Ltd install 6 seat hyperbaric oxygen therapy chamber into a children’s special needs school in Manchester. The project also required that SMP design a modular building that would be placed beside the school to house the chamber and supporting machinery.

The bespoke, fully automatic, 6 seat Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Chamber (HBOT) will be welcomed by the school and the wider community to deliver much needed Oxygen Therapy treatments. Currently this service has been difficult to access due to the distance required to travel to A Breath for Life Centre in Morecambe, run by the very supportive David Holehouse and his team, so one dedicated mother has teamed up with SMP to help realise the dream of opening a centre on their doorstep.

The chamber has been specifically designed to be as ‘child friendly’ as possible but has significant engineering detail to ensure that it is at the forefront of modern design.

SMP have been integral throughout the whole process from initial proposal, building layout & design, engineering, whilst organising and ensuring that the site preparation has also been progressing with the delivery of the modular building system. The modular building was placed over the chamber creating a beautiful new space for the installation and commissioning of the supporting machinery that includes an Oxygen Generation System (known as PSA) to enable them to be fully self-sufficient.
