HTS New England was chosen as the basis of design on this turnkey project, working closely with the owner and Daikin service for the renovation of the 600-ton chiller plant, which serves the 100,000 square foot office space in Tampa, Florida. The building houses the corporate offices of Citibank with a staff who have the responsibility of handling all credit card processing internationally and needed an updated HVAC system to improve occupancy comfort and efficiency.
The goal was to provide a reliable and efficient system that would help to reduce energy costs while still supporting a cooling load year-round to accommodate the warmer Florida climate. Because of its cost-saving benefits, HTS selected two 300-ton WWV Daikin Screw Compressor Chillers with VFD starters to replace the existing failing system.
HTS New England was able to overcome the challenges of completing a project nearly 1,600 miles away, as well as deliver a quick turnaround with minimal downtime. To avoid the issues of limited parking and surrounding spaces, we were able to complete much of the work on weekends and holidays when the offices were closed.
