Chilled beams are well suited to hotel rooms

Waterloo, chilled beam

Waterloo’s ABM-H active chilled beam is specifically designed to deliver quiet and draught-free comfort in hotels, offices and hospitals. These units can be installed fully exposed or hidden in ceilings or bulkhead structures typically found in hotel rooms and hospitals. Temperature control can be combined with other services such as lighting, sprinkler valves and loudspeakers.

Maintenance requirements are minimal since there are no moving parts such as fans and no filters. This method of cooling can readily be integrated with free cooling and other low-energy systems to achieve high energy efficiency.

Beams can be individually designed according to project requirements.
