Our Clients Problem
This cafe is long established and well regarded amongst locals and when undergoing a recent renovation they contacted us to see if we could do something about their perennial overheating problem in summer. They had been told previously by other a/c companies that they couldn’t have air conditioning installed but they were desperate to resolve this problem as, due to the excess heat in summer, they were losing customers who simply left once they arrived, or left early, meaning their total spend per head was drastically down in the warmer months. No-one likes to be excessively hot inside a building when you’re trying to relax and enjoy a meal with friends!
Details of Air Conditioning Installation
As soon as we arrived we saw the problem and, not longer after our arrival, we then identified the solution. With insufficient available wall space to allow the mounting of a wall mounted unit, the only possible option was a cassette unit mounted at ceiling height in the middle of the room. The problem was there was no ceiling void above the ceiling which is where a cassette is normally located. Whilst you might see only the grille of a cassette, there is usually circa 300mm above that located in the space above the ceiling. So, no void above the ceiling means no space to mount a cassette. Luckily there is a solution though. The unit shown here is a 7kW 4way blow Under Ceiling Cassette split system. It’s manufactured by Daikin and it’s designed specifically to be mounted below the ceiling and is ideal for locations, like our clients, who don’t have a ceiling void. So whilst it was a challenge, we found a way to resolve their problem and they’ve found that customers are staying longer, spending more and enjoying their time inside. As a bonus the staff are infinitely more comfortable too!!
