ABOUT THE PROJECTPaddington Central is a new prestige commercial and retail site adjacent to the redeveloped Paddington Station. Chilled Water (CHW) and Low Temperature Hot Water (LTHW) Side Stream filters were specified by the Contractor to ensure accurate temperature control at this high profile building complex. The CHW system volume was particularly large, operating with in excess of 20,000 litres of fluid. One part of the circuit was classified as ‘Critical’ therefore a secondary ‘boosted pump’ system was installed in the basement to ensure zero fluid loss and to maintain maximum operating efficiency. This was vitally important to maintain the comfort of the users and visitors to the complex.

PROJECT CHALLENGESDue to the critical nature of this building, flushing filters were used during the commissioning phase to ensure a high level of cleanliness at the start. Once the system had been commissioned operational filter cartridges were fitted to maintain the cleanliness levels. There were project critical deadlines that had to be met, with significant consequences for not meeting them, therefore delivery of equipment on time was essential.

Amazon manufactured and delivered the filters and housings on time to ensure project deadlines were met. This was particularly important due to limited site access. In addition, a high level of on-site support has been maintained to this present day to ensure efficient operation of the installed equipment and client satisfaction.
