Mitsubishi Electric - Business Solutions Partner

Airtemp A C Limited are proud to announce that we have now been upgraded to a Business Solutions Partner with Mitsubishi Electric. This means that all the units we install will be covered by a five year warranty.

Airtemp Ducting Services

Airtemp are pleased to announce that we can now offer you the complete package for all your air conditioning and ducting requirements. Airtemp has launched Airtemp Ducting Services Limited. For any ducting enquiries you may have, please give us a call – Airtemp Ducting are able to provide full design and installation of ductwork and ventilation projects. We utilise modern computerised Autocad systems as well as the very best engineering personnel in the business.

We pride ourselves on our professional approach as well as the flexibility of our workforce to meet the time and cost constraints for each and every job.

With Summer Approaching, now is the time to service your air conditioning.

Combined heating and cooling units are used year round and their continuous use causes the build up of particles and dust in the filters and coils. These deposits will greatly affect the efficiency of the units, can often lead to unpleasant odours and will increase the likelihood of the unit breaking down.

Cooling only units tend to sit over the winter period in whatever condition they were in when last turned off. The inevitable build up of grime and sludge over the summer months tends to solidify inside the unit, greatly increasing the possibility of malfunction the next time the units are required (the time you need them most!).

For a free, no obligation quotation for service options or repair of your air conditioning equipment, please contact our Service Team on 0845 872 5657 - we guarantee to respond within 24 hours.

AIRTEMP ARE NOW ACCREDITED INSTALLERS FOR DAIKIN ALTHERMA HEAT PUMP BOILERS

Here at Airtemp we are committed to promoting sources of renewable energy.

Daikin Leaders in Renewable Heat Pump Technology

Daikin has more than 50 years of experience with heat pumps, and supplies more than one million of them to homes, shops and offices each year. This success is not just a quirk of fate: Daikin has always been at the cutting edge of technology and its goal is to provide you with turn-key comfort. Only a market leader can guarantee you this level of service and quality control! The complete system is provided by one manufacturer, Daikin. Because all the components are specifically designed to work together, optimum performance and maximum efficiency is assured.

Airtemp AC is currently undertaking phased installation of three Sanyo Heat Recovery VRF Air Conditioning Systems, which incorporate refrigerant leak detection to comply with F-Gas Regulations. A further two separate Sanyo Split Systems are being installed to provide cooling for the Comms Rooms with a separate Searle Low Temperature System installed for the Chilled Room.

To provide required fresh air, NuAire Heat Recovery Ventilation (HRV) Units are being fitted along with all necessary ventilation ductwork which will be fire clad as required. The HRV units recover heat to either pre-heated or pre-cooled incoming fresh air so that the heating or cooling requirement is reduced and ‘paid for’ heating or cooling is not thrown away with exhausted air. A separate toilet ventilation system, with all necessary ductwork, is also being installed.

Heat Recovery technology was selected to meet the differing requirements for bedrooms, multi-purpose rooms, offices and conference rooms , as well as to make use of the building layout and orientation; the building has a central hub from which various ‘arms’ emanate so that most rooms have a window, but will have sun at differing times which will enable heat to be recovered.

Airtemp AC has recently completed the installation of a Mitsubishi Electric Water Sourced Heat Recovery VRF System along with ventilation ductwork to serve the new extension at this performing arts school.

The Heat Recovery VRF Air Conditioning System is linked to a water loop which is run down a bore hole to recover heat which is stored in the ground. A heat recovery system was installed, not only to make optimum use of the ground source facility, but also to provide simultaneous heating and cooling across the system. This is ideal for recovering heat from highly animated areas such as dance halls and redirecting it to provide ‘free’ heat to the classrooms and offices.

To enhance the air conditioning and meet legal requirements for fresh air, a Swegon Air Handling Unit was installed with ductwork to feed into all the required areas. In addition to this a separate ductwork system was installed for toilet extract.

Airtemp AC completed the installation of a Daikin Heat Pump VRV System with a JAI Cross-Flow Heat Recovery Air Handling Unit to serve the main Gym workout area. A separate Heat Recovery Ventilation unit was installed to serve the ‘back of house’ areas with separate extract systems for the changing rooms and toilets.

A heat pump system was selected for this application as it serves a single open plan area that is to be maintained at the same temperature throughout which means that there would be little opportunity for heat recovery. However the indoor units have been configured for Zonal Control to take account of the differing heat loads in the various areas of the gym; for example the units above the warm-up / warm-down area can run at a lower output to those over the running machines whilst still maintaining the overall room temperature.

To compliment this, fresh air is provided by a JAI Cross-Flow Heat Recovery Air Handling Unit (AHU) which recovers heat from exhaust air to transfer, without mixing, to the incoming fresh air and vice versa, so that ‘paid for’ heating or cooling is recovered. In addition to this ‘free’ heating or cooling can also be recovered from ambient air when temperatures permit. The AHU is connected to the VRV System so that they are working in harmony for optimum energy efficiency.

A separate Heat Recovery Ventilation (HRV) unit which also recovers heat / cooling from exhausted air or from ambient air to provide ‘free’ heating / cooling, serves the ‘back of house’ and personal training areas. Separate extract duct systems were installed for the changing rooms and toilets.

Airtemp AC completed the installation of a Mitsubishi Electric Heat Recovery VRF Air Conditioning System with Heat Recovery Ventilation Units to serve the Spa and Health Club. A Dantherm Heat Recovery Air Handling Unit was also supplied and fitted to serve the swimming pool. Our installation included all necessary ductwork and grilles for the air conditioning units, HRV units and for the AHU to serve the swimming pool.

The gym VRF indoor units are rarely used for heating and therefore during the winter months the heat rejected from the gym is recovered to heat other areas of the Health Club, reducing the overall heating bill. However in Summer when all the VRF indoor units are cooling, the rejected heat is transferred via a heat pump boiler to the swimming pool which then reduces the running cost of heating the swimming pool.

Fresh air is introduced via heat recovery ventilation units (HRV units) to the Health Club and via an Air Handling Unit for the swimming pool which then recover heat to either pre-heat or pre-cool incoming fresh air so that the heating or cooling requirement is reduced and ‘paid for’ heating or cooling is not thrown away with exhausted air. A separate heat recovery system was installed for the toilets.
