Highlights three extant early heating, ventilating and air conditioning installations in the UK. The Soho House, home of Matthew Boulton, shows an unusual adaptive reuse of equipment and a retrofit warm-air system. St. George’s Hall illustrates the rising concern in the early nineteenth century for bad ventilation causing ill health. The Glasgow School of Art illustrates the harmonising of engineering and architecture that we sometimes forget today.
