Toshiba provides flexible air conditioning for leased offices
Published: December 2007
To provide flexibility for leasing the recently completed West Strand Business Park in Preston, Airmaster Air Conditioning has installed 16 Toshiba R410A VRF systems with heat recovery. The modular concept using Toshiba systems is being rolled out by developer Derwent Holdings in business parks across the country. Typical schemes have a group of four 3-storey mirror-image blocks, as at West Strand. A set of four can be multiplied to eight or 12 — and the scale of the buildings can be increased. Buildings can be leased to single tenants, or floor-by-floor or in even smaller units. At West Strand, each building required eight outdoor units and 24 ducted indoor units. Many tenants are adding more indoor and outdoor units onto the original system or swapping some of the ducted indoor units for cassettes or high wall units as exact office use is determined. The Preston installation uses a Toshiba interactive-intelligence, which can control up to 200 indoor units in 64 zones. Low external noise levels are a benefit, as the plant compounds are new to the buildings and neighbouring properties.
