SEPTEMBER
PRIVATE HEALTHCARE- GROUP ’ S CORPORATE OFFICE HVAC GETS ANOTHER LIFE
This client required a new system that was reliable , energy efficient and that could further be scaled to eventually meet the HVAC needs of the entire building . The maintenance of existing HVAC equipment had become an extensive exercise and sourcing spare parts for some of the older units had becoming more and more difficult . The refrigerant networks of the older VRV systems were also at the end of their lifespan and were becoming problematic .

AUGUST
SUPERMARKET CHAIN SERVICED WITH EXCEPTIONAL TURNAROUND AND QUALITY
Not only did the team on this project have to pull a rabbit out of the hat with a 16-working-day turnaround , but it is also said to now be home to the largest VRF air handling unit on the continent . As a plant replacement project , the original plant located at William Moffett shopping centre in Gqeberha
( formerly Port Elizabeth ), was estimated at about 1 400kW supplied by two water-cooled chillers in a sort of back-to-back installation in the sense that the chiller plant room was located adjacent to the coil arrangement with very short pipe runs . It was very clear from the start that the old plant was in a bad way and had experienced trouble for some time already .
