Background
The owners of this prestigious London property tasked their project manager to find the most discreet heating and cooling system which would not compromise the new interior and architectural features of this period property.
After researching “discreet air conditioning”, he discovered the Unico System which was perfect for this new living space.
During the full renovation, the ceiling was dropped slightly to allow access for the main ducts. This provided enough scope to design the system into an extremely challenging building.
Solution
Due to restraints in the building, the whole system was first designed and modelled in 3D to ensure every component would fit into the space.
Two 14kW Unico Systems were installed in the loft space with main ducts running to each of the four floors below. All supply outlets were plastered into the ceilings, leaving just discreet 50mm holes delivering the conditioned supply air.
Return air from the rooms was done through bespoke transfer grilles above the doors and returned to the Unico Systems via the central staircase.
Both Unico Systems are interfaced with Mitsubishi Electric heat pumps and controlled through the Crestron BMS System.
The Unico System provides the perfect heating and cooling solution for this high end residential property.
