A Complex Engineering Puzzle
The critical challenge was to execute a large-scale MEP overhaul within a fully operational luxury hotel, ensuring zero disruption to guest services and daily operations. The project demanded a phased, meticulously planned approach to replace outdated equipment with modern, energy-efficient systems while maintaining the hotel's prestigious ambiance and comfort levels.
Innovative & Efficient
Our solution centered on a phased installation of a high-efficiency Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) HVAC system, providing granular, room-by-room climate control. The existing fire alarm system was upgraded to a state-of-the-art, addressable system fully compliant with NFPA standards. Both systems were seamlessly integrated into a central BAS, enabling the hotel's engineering team to monitor, control, and optimize energy usage, air quality, and life safety systems from a single, intuitive interface.
Key Project Outcomes
Reduced overall HVAC energy consumption by 30% through the new VRF system and BAS optimization.
Significantly enhanced guest comfort and satisfaction by providing individual and responsive in-room climate control.
Achieved 100% compliance with modern fire and life safety codes, drastically improving emergency response capabilities.
Streamlined facility management operations, leading to a 40% reduction in manual system checks and improved maintenance scheduling.
“Executing a project of this complexity without impacting our guests was our biggest concern. Their team's professionalism and meticulous planning were exceptional. The new systems have not only cut our energy costs but have also elevated the level of comfort we can offer our guests.”
