Daikin VRV air conditioning provides final touch in London riverside development

Daikin
Top-of-the-range apartments and penthouses in Baltimore House of the Battersea Reach development in London feature cooling and heating provided by Daikin VRV air conditioning systems.
Two penthouses and 32 apartments in Baltimore House, part of the Battersea Reach residential and commercial development by St George Plc, include Daikin VRV heat-recovery air conditioning among their numerous facilities and fittings. The systems were installed by Daikin D1 installer Air Cool Engineering Systems. Air conditioning is supplied to all living, lounge and dining areas and bedrooms by 153 fan-coil units with cooling capacities from 2.2 to 14 kW and heating from 2.5 to 16 kW. They are located in false ceilings and ducted to linear diffuser grilles in architecturally designed high-level bulkhead enclosures in each area. There are 10 VRV heat-recovery condensing units in the basement car park. They have cooling capacities from 22.4 to 96 kW and heating from 25 to 108 kW. Areas without air conditioning, such as kitchen, bathroom and hall, have underfloor heating. All VRV systems are controlled locally via simplified remote controllers, enabling occupants to switch air conditioning on and off and change setpoint temperatures, fan speed and airflow. These controllers are linked to a stand-alone and extended central Daikin computerised control system in the concierge office of the overall development. The system gives the building owner a comprehensive overview of usage patterns of air conditioning in individual buildings and apartments — as well as access to centralised management, timing, demand and service facilities.
