Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) For New College

PROJECT SUMMARY

Our client needed a reliable hot water generation system for a new college in Manchester, but with site restrictions in terms of width and crane lift capacity, a customised solution was essential.

PROJECT CHALLENGE

The site came with several unique challenges. Firstly, there was limited space for the installation, and the plant room equipment had to be designed to fit within a narrow footprint. Additionally, the crane lift had strict weight and size limits, meaning every component had to be carefully considered to meet these restrictions. Finally, the use of the crane meant the project had to move to a tight deadline, so swift planning and meticulous coordination were required to ensure the installation was carried out successfully without delays.

PROJECT SOLUTION

Dutypoint provided a bespoke rooftop packaged plant room solution designed to meet all the client’s specifications.

There are many benefits to choosing our packaged plant rooms, which allow us the flexibility to deliver high-quality pump solutions around a wide range of site restrictions. By utilising offsite manufacturing, our packaged plant room can be pre-designed and assembled in a controlled environment, ensuring enhanced quality control. This approach allows for pre-testing and pre-commissioning of all equipment before delivery, preventing on-site delays and ensuring a smooth installation process to meet tight timeline requirements.

Packaged plant room project in Manchester

The fully packaged rooftop plant room was delivered to the college in Manchester, and included hot water generation equipment, complete with thermal stores fed from air source heat pumps, plate heat exchangers, circulation pumps, and all necessary pressurisation and ancillary equipment. Our team at Dutypoint worked to ensure all the components were carefully designed and constructed to fit within the client’s restrictive limits, which allowed for a smooth installation.
