NHS – Morpeth Health Centre

The installation and commissioning of 12 new Mitsubishi Air Source Heat Pumps and pipework

The project has been successfully completed whilst battling a few obstacles.

The delivery of the ASHPs was the biggest issue, due to global shortages of ASHPs this project was rather protracted, taking a lot longer than initially planned.

The installation was carried out over a weekend utilising a contract lift to position the units on to the roof and avoid any potential problems with the staff and public moving around the carpark.

Northumberland County Council (Cowley Road Blyth Depot)

Another project underway with one of our key clients, the refurbishment of all the main switchgear, sub distribution boards and EICR remedial works.

This involved working closely with the depot staff and Northern Power Grid, programming in shutdowns and changeover works to avoid any disruption to the day to day depot operations.

The main low bay lighting has also been replaced with a new lighting busbar system and Thorn LED luminaires being installed in a very busy vehicle depot. The preparation of detailed zoning to avoid the fleet traffic has been key to ensure a safe area to work.
