What HVAC system is right for my building?
System selection depends on building size, use, and budget:
- Split Systems: Ideal for smaller spaces and individual zone control.
- VRF/VRV Systems: Excellent efficiency for medium to large commercial buildings.
- Chilled Water Systems: Best for large buildings and campus environments.
- Packaged Units: Cost-effective for industrial and retail applications.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do you size HVAC systems?expand_more
We perform detailed heat load calculations considering building orientation, glazing, occupancy, equipment loads, and local climate data to determine precise cooling and heating requirements.
Is fire protection always required?expand_more
Fire protection requirements depend on building occupancy class, area, and height as defined in SANS 10400-T. Most commercial and industrial buildings require some level of fire protection.
What about green building certification?expand_more
We design mechanical systems to achieve Green Star SA, EDGE, and other sustainability certifications, incorporating energy recovery, efficient equipment, and smart controls.
Do you handle commissioning?expand_more
We provide commissioning support to ensure systems perform as designed, including air and water balancing, controls tuning, and performance verification.
