Project Summary

WATERLOO FORD

The Waterloo Ford Lincoln project demonstrates the capabilities and knowledge of the mechanical design team in renovation and auto dealership projects.

The design incorporated plumbing and ventilation for a two-story showroom; in addition, glazing from floor to ceiling and an office space on two floors, including offices, a boardroom, storage areas, washrooms, and a data centre.

The renovation required state-of-the-art washroom facilities which included high-efficiency fixtures with hands-free options. A domestic hot water recirculation system was included to provide quick response for hot water demand.

The design accounted for large variances in heating and cooling demands, as simulated in Carrier’s Blockload software, by utilizing multiple roof top units and Carrier’s 3V system to provide exceptional zone control and thermal comfort. This economical, yet efficient, design also utilized electric heating for vestibules and perimeter offices.

The final mechanical construction cost was in line with the established budget and completed on schedule.
