Extended family

Uden’s, a large family run undertakers with seven sites across London and Kent, sought to transform its new site in West Wickham in Kent. This included the installation of a Panasonic low temperature heating and cooling system, utilising PACi NX Elite multi-split units, capable of cooling down to 8°C.

Uden’s Undertakers was founded by Walter Uden in 1881 in London, and has evolved
over the last 170 years, with five generations of Uden’s family having been involved in growing the business and it is still run
as a family business today. For their West Wickham site, the family sought an HVAC system to deliver efficient heating and cooling across diverse areas, including the reception, back office, arrangement rooms, hallways, chapel of rest and the preparation and visitors viewing spaces. Maintaining an ambient temperature of 8-10°C was crucial for specific areas.

Panasonic collaborated with experienced HVAC installer Ken Lockwood of FLR Spectron to provide an energy efficient HVAC solution tailored to the customer requirements. The installation included five Panasonic PACi split room air conditioning units, offering optimal heating and cooling for the various spaces.
