Cold Fall is coming, but in Bila Tserkva kindergarten №32 warm and cozy now. It’s hard to realize, that it was so cold here last winter, that local heaters could not heat rooms!
The GoLOCAL team, which is involved in the Bila Tserkva city infrastructure development, has taken the initiative to attract Turkish International Cooperation Agency (TIKA) donor funds for the №32 kindergarten thermo-modernization. As a result, 42 energy-saving windows were installed in this preschool. These new windows won’t let the cold air in and will maintain a favorable climate in its rooms. Four stained-glass windows with a total area of 300 square meters also have been replaced in the kindergarten. Before the replacement, the corridors temperature was critical in winter – around +5 C, but now all the rooms and corridors in the kindergarten will be fully warmed. Thanks to the thermo-modernization project, all preschool rooms, dining room and gym temperature correspond to sanitary norms now and will contribute to the improvement of the educational process.
At the same time, energy consumption will decrease significantly in the kindergarten, so the City Hall will be able to redirect saved money for other preschool institutions modernization.
It is noteworthy, that this kindergarten is one of the few preschool educational institutions of Bila Tserkva city, which fully equipped with energy-saving windows today.
