Design
Custom design solutions
To control the indoor climate and ensure a comfortable and healthy environment to all occupants, our ARA Mechanical designers assess the building’s size, layout, and use, as well as the local climate conditions and environmental regulations. The design team will then determine the heating and cooling loads for the building, which is the amount of heat that needs to be added or removed to maintain the desired temperature and humidity levels.
Based on these measures, the team will choose the appropriate HVAC equipment, such as boilers, chillers, air handling units, and ductwork to determine the best location for each component. They will also select the type of control system needed to regulate the temperature and humidity levels.
Smart design
Our custom-design services are intelligent, economical and efficient solutions that deliver the ultimate thermal comfort to your building. Services include:
- calculating heat load, to ensure correct equipment sizing
- selecting equipment, for quality and value for money
- designing and sizing ducts, for efficiency and airflow distribution
- developing piping layouts for maximum system efficiency, and outdoor unit locations
- designing ventilation and exhaust specifications, ensuring fresh air requirements and that buildings meet Australian Building Standards
Energy management technology
Providing cutting edge technology, we are dedicated to improving your energy performance. We understand our clients’ energy future goals whether that be through sustainable Green Star ratings to certify design and construction or NABERS Energy Rating to increase efficiency. With every design, clients benefit from the following:
- Temperature control: we ensure the system can maintain the desired temperature, including zoning. This assists in providing different temperature zones according to our clients’ needs.
- Indoor air quality: The system will improve indoor air quality by providing adequate ventilation, filtration and air circulation. This in turn can reduce indoor pollutants that can affect the health and comfort of occupants.
- Humidity control: The system can control the humidity levels in the building. High humidity levels can cause discomfort and health issues, such as respiratory problems and allergies, while low humidity levels can cause dry skin and respiratory problems.
- Noise control: HVAC mechanical design can also control noise levels in the building. This can be achieved through the selection of quiet equipment and the use of sound-absorbing materials in the ductwork and other components of the system.
