Berkshire-based mechanical and electrical engineering firm, Campbell West, has completed a major transformation at Hertfordshire University in Hatfield.
The five-month project formed part of a wider renovation project by Carmelcrest at the University’s School of Creative Arts. The works included a complete overhaul of the building’s heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) infrastructure, as well as the refurbishment of the male, female, and disabled WC facilities.
Air quality and comfort
Commenting on the project, Steven Campbell, Co-Founder and Director of Campbell West, said: "We are proud to have been able to play a key role in such a major refurbishment project for Hertfordshire University."
He adds, "The transformation is significant and will make a big impact on the functionality of the space, the air quality, and comfort for the students and staff using the building."
Climate control across multiple zones
Mitsubishi VRV system, comprising 23 fan coil units, was installed to provide effective climate control
The HVAC solution provided by Campbell West was extensive and included the installation of three Swegon air handling units, to ensure efficient ventilation and air quality throughout the building.
In addition, a Mitsubishi VRV system comprising 23 fan coil units was installed to provide effective climate control across multiple zones.
Final outcome of the project
Michael Timmons, Project Manager at Campbell West who took the lead on the Hertfordshire University project, stated: "We are really pleased with the final outcome of this project, which has delivered much improved facilities for those using the space."
He adds, "Our success is down to the commitment and expertise of our team, and ability to co-ordinate effectively with the multiple trades working on the project."
