Scope of Work

Design and installation of multiple new split air conditioning systems across a school, completed during the term holidays

About This Project

The school had no air conditioning in several of its classrooms and offices, and the only window to install it was the term holidays - a fixed deadline with no room to overrun before pupils and staff returned. Our engineers surveyed the building and designed a system of energy-efficient R32 inverter splits to suit each space. New wall brackets were fixed at roof level to carry the outdoor units, with ceiling cassettes installed in the rooms below. Refrigerant pipework, condensate drainage and electrical supplies were all run from scratch, cored through the building fabric, terminated at the distribution board and each unit given its own isolator. Every system was pressure tested, vacuumed, charged and commissioned before handover. Despite the tight programme, everything was up and running before the start of term.
