SAS INTERNATIONAL - CHILLED CEILING SYSTEM FOR LIMERICK HOSPITAL
When the Mid-Western Regional Hospital in
Limerick was looking to the refurbishment of its Intensive Care
Neo-natal Department, it turned to a chilled ceiling solution from
SAS International. The client specified a SAS International chilled
ceiling system to help combat the heat levels generated from the
special hospital equipment used in this unit.
The radiant chilled ceiling panels use water as a cooling medium
which removes heat from the Neo-natal Unit’s wards as it flows
through the system. The chilled ceilings work by radiating energy
(cooling) downwards, this means there are no perceptible air
movement and noise levels to contend with. These elements are
integral to the comfort factor of this demanding environment, which
deals with critically ill new born babies.
Tony McBride, maintenance manager, commented: “The metal ceiling
solution provides both an inherently hygienic, easy to clean
solution and one that is very practical, with the integral SAS
CoolCeil elements.” He went on to say “The installation proved
straightforward and we’re pleased with the finished look.”
Conventional air conditioning solutions using mechanical
alternatives can generate obtrusive noise, and the aggressive
effects of modern synthetic refrigerants used in such systems has
been cause for some concern. This was also an important
consideration for Limerick Hospital.
Chilled ceilings can offer significant reductions in whole
life-cycle costs due to reduced maintenance requirements, brought
about by fewer moving parts, and provide a very energy efficient
solution and this was also recognised.
Hinge-down panels were employed to allow access to the services in
the Unit. The incorporation of light fittings within the ceiling and
co-ordination with the mechanical pipework and other services for an
integrated system was a key factor. SAS International’s Project
Management team in Ireland worked closely with Limerick Hospital’s
maintenance department to provide the best solution for this
important facility and its role in dealing with sick and vulnerable
infants.
SAS International’s dedicated Dublin office has recently completed
another chilled ceiling project at 75 St Stephen’s Green (formerly
Colmstock House), Dublin and is supplying chilled ceilings to
International House, Dublin.
