Casette Air Conditioning Install in Fulham

We recently completed the installation of a cassette air conditioning unit in a residential property in Fulham. Here’s a breakdown of how we executed the project

Site Assessment

We started with a thorough assessment of the space to identify the optimal location for the cassette unit. We considered factors like room layout, airflow, and access to the electrical supply.

Equipment Selection

After assessing the requirements, we selected a high-efficiency cassette air conditioning unit tailored for the room’s size and cooling needs. This unit was chosen for its quiet operation and energy efficiency, ensuring maximum comfort for the occupants.

Installation Process

  • Mounting: We carefully mounted the unit into the ceiling grid, ensuring it was secure and flush with the ceiling.
  • Ductwork Connection: We connected the unit to the existing ductwork, sealing all joints to prevent air leaks and improve efficiency.
  • Electrical Wiring: The unit was wired to the electrical supply, following all safety regulations. This step included installing a dedicated circuit to ensure the unit operates efficiently without overloading.

System Testing

Once installed, we powered on the system to test its functionality. We checked airflow, temperature settings, and remote control operation to ensure everything was working correctly. Our team made minor adjustments as needed to optimise performance.

Final Inspection and Cleanup

After confirming that the system was operating efficiently, we conducted a final inspection of the installation area. We cleaned up the workspace, removing any debris or packaging, and ensured the site was left in pristine condition.

This installation not only improved the indoor comfort of the home but also contributed to energy savings, thanks to the efficiency of the new cassette unit. The client was thrilled with the results and can now enjoy a cool, comfortable living environment throughout the summer months!

Air Conditioning Solutions for Park View Flat 2

Air Conditioning Solutions for Park View Flat 2

Be Cool recently worked with Brompton Cross Construction to provide Park View Flat 2 with an advanced air conditioning solution. In order to provide the best possible comfort and visual coherence throughout the apartment, a combination of Mitsubishi and Daikin systems was used in this project. Here, we examine the layout, functionality, and design of these systems, demonstrating how VRF (Variable Refrigerant Flow) technology satisfies contemporary home cooling needs.

Project Overview

We built a Daikin system with two indoor units specifically for the living room and a Mitsubishi VRF system with six indoor and one outdoor unit for Park View Flat 2. Each system was selected to optimise energy efficiency and comfort in various apartment zones, enabling customised climate management.

Proposal

Innovative Installation Solutions

In order to preserve the apartment’s sophisticated layout while optimising its available area, we employed multiple creative approaches:

  • Concealed Air Conditioning Units: We hid the air conditioning units behind joinery cupboards for the Daikin systems in the large living spaces. This approach preserved the aesthetic appeal of the rooms and ensured that all equipment was discreetly integrated into the design.
  • Ceiling Void Installation: For both systems, we concealed all units within ceiling voids. The supply air was introduced via ceiling coving, eliminating the need for visible grills or equipment. This technique maintained the ceiling height in the main rooms and contributed to a clean, uninterrupted design.

Overcoming Common Challenges within London

Space Efficiency: Making sure the air conditioning system did not sacrifice design or space was a significant problem. We effectively solved this problem by placing the units in ceiling voids and joinery cupboards, which preserved the apartment’s elegant appearance while maximising comfort.

Planning Permission: Another major obstacle was getting planning authorisation for outdoor condensing units. Permission was first denied. In order to get around this, we built a special plant room and added sufficient air circulation, maintaining the system’s peak performance without the need for outside units. This technique preserved the effectiveness of the system while adhering to local laws.

The Perks of a Compact VRF System

At Park View Flat 2, both systems operate as a component of a small VRF system. This arrangement saves space and energy as it enables several interior units to link to a small number of outside units. Temperature controls for individual rooms are possible, providing flexibility and lowering energy usage.

Performance and Efficiency

The Mitsubishi system at Park View Flat 2 was designed for top efficiency. The total cooling capacity stands at 15.62 kW, with no additional pipe run required, ensuring minimal energy loss. The system uses R32 refrigerant, which is environmentally friendly and ensures efficient cooling with a reduced carbon footprint.

The system meets both EN 378-1:2016 standards for toxicity and IEC 60335-2-40 Ed 6.0 standards for flammability, ensuring safety and compliance with European regulations.

In a nutshell

Collaborating with Brompton Cross Construction on the Park View Flat 2 project has been a success. By integrating Mitsubishi VRF technology with Daikin’s reliable systems and addressing common challenges with innovative solutions, we provided a tailor-made air conditioning system that balances comfort, efficiency, and design.

At Be Cool, we specialise in delivering high-performance air conditioning solutions that meet modern needs while being energy-efficient and environmentally conscious.
