Description of the Works
Works are to take place on AHU_1 which serves the main restaurant space of Village Dining alongside AHU_2. During this time only AHU_2 will be operational.
The heating burner to AHU_1 was replaced with a LTHW coil last year, a new LTHW boiler system is to be installed to serve the new heating coil to AHU_1. (AHU_2 remains as existing direct gas fired).
The new boiler system will include the installation of 2No. 100kW boilers, these will serve as resilience and futureproof the installation for AHU_2 future requirements. A new common flue will be installed to serve the boilers and pipework with spare future connections for AHU_2 to be connected later if/when required. The new system will be connected to the local control panel with new sensors to the pipework and AHU_1 ductwork sections to allow BMS integration control.
The existing run around coil pipework serving AHU_2 is to be altered to make space for the new boiler system including secondary and ancillary equipment. New valves and pipework will be installed to join the R-A-C pipework of AHU_2 to AHU_1 to allow the quick fill loop of AHU_1 to be used to fill both systems, the valves will be left closed under normal operation.
TIMESCALE
