Efficient Roof Extraction System
Our client approached us to help improve their commercial kitchen environment within one of their Academy Trusts.
Their current system was extremely old and unserviceable which was causing very high temperatures inside the main kitchen area, which exceeded 40C in hot summer months and were too high for normal working conditions.
One of the key elements to this project was to provide and energy efficient solution via the correct fan selection for the area and to provide better control for the system.
OUR SOLUTION
The design criteria was to provide a industrial ventilation system to replace the existing system which is inoperable and unserviceable due the age of the equipment. Our design approach had an equal direction on compliance and value engineering whilst providing the correct air change rate to meet the design criteria and provide for heat exhaust.
CHALLENGES
One of the main challenges for this project was the fans location being at roof level with no fixed access.
We, therefore, after careful consideration and completion of a risk assessment, decided upon a safe and workable access and egress solution that didn’t impact too much on the client’s operational effectiveness.
SUCCESS
The technical expertise and problem solving skills of our team were paramount in bringing this project to a successful completion within the time frame specified by our client. We were also delighted to complete the project swiftly and safely to enable our client to effectively utilise the work area
