Stuart Park Early Learning Central Plant upgrade

This project required the complete decommissioning and demolition of the existing central plant system servicing the Early Childhood Centre building during the Christmas 2014-2015 holiday period. United were also required to demolish existing ductwork within the building and run new runs of ductwork to suit the room’s requirements. United also removed asbestos ceilings in the toilets and made good, we carried out a full duct clean to the building, upgraded the main electrical feeding the building from PAWC points and we also built a new chiller enclosure. On top of this we supplied and installed a new Chiller, Chiller water pipework, an AHU, a precooling coil, pumps, a buffer tank and new electrical and controls.  The chiller enclose was particularly difficult as we had to work closely and negotiate with PAWC, to allow a building structure over an existing sewer. United had 6 weeks to deliver this project from the date the school shut down. This Project was delivered on time and at a high quality.
