ICA 2 Air conditioning plant
All the AHUs offer a high degree of comfort, as well as security
In the new building extension, called ICA 2, there are laboratories, spray booths for water-based coatings and solvent-based UV coatings, offices, and of course bathroom facilities. The air conditioning plant is divided into two parts.
The first part includes the heat pumps, Climaveneta branded: 2 NECS-Q 804, multi-purpose heat pumps that simultaneously produce hot and cold water, independently of the season, to guarantee the flexibility required by the client.
In the second part there are 8 Air Handling Units (AHU), two of which are dual zone. All of them are equipped with cross flow heat recovery with a free heating and cooling system, a technology which maximizes efficiency and reduces energy consumption. All the AHUs are Fresh Air Handling Units (FAHUs), so all of them, save one, avoid the recirculation of air inside the rooms, to offer a high degree of comfort, as well as security.
