An established art gallery in Leicester City Centre contacted ACRC requiring a high-performance commercial air conditioning solution. Following a comprehensive site survey, our team determined that ceiling cassette air conditioning units would be the perfect fit to manage the rigorous temperature control demands of such a large, open-plan public space.
Ceiling cassette A/C units are uniquely engineered to disperse conditioned air in four different directions simultaneously. This multi-directional airflow makes them ideal for maintaining balanced, comfortable temperatures across expansive rooms without creating uncomfortable cold spots.
Structural Roof-Mounted Engineering & Roof Protection
Our qualified commercial engineers designed this high-end retail installation with a focus on structural safety and neat aesthetics. Internally, the indoor cassette units were securely hung utilizing heavy-duty channel and rod supports, with all refrigerant pipework situated neatly on an elevated tray system hidden above. The internal pipework routed above the units and exited the building infrastructure to connect cleanly with the corresponding outdoor condenser units situated on the roof.
To ensure long-term stability and building protection, the outdoor units were positioned on robust, shock-absorbing rubber support feet designed to minimize structural sound and machine vibrations. Similarly, the pipework running across the roof layout was laid on a dedicated tray system resting on protective rubber feet. This technical step safely distributes the weight, fixes the pipework securely in place, and guards the roof membrane against weather and physical wear.
Smart Control Infrastructure & Energy Efficiency
Once the installation was complete, fully commissioned, and pressure-tested, our engineers provided the client with a comprehensive walkthrough on how to operate the smart controller interface, leaving them with an official reference manual.
Modern cassette units offer an exceptional array of tailored operational settings. This system features advanced weekly timers—allowing staff to arrive at a perfectly pre-warmed or pre-cooled gallery while ensuring the system automatically shuts down at closing time to eliminate wasted energy. Furthermore, administrative access allows management to set explicit operation restrictions so unauthorized personnel or visitors cannot tamper with temperature modes.
The premium Mitsubishi Heavy air conditioning cassettes utilized for this project are inverter-driven. This allows the gallery to enjoy fantastic climate control performance from an HVAC system that operates exceptionally effectively and economically. These systems are widely considered some of the best commercial air conditioning units on the market today and come backed by an excellent 5-year warranty.
