Design & Engineering
Design and engineering is the first crucial step in any mechanical engineering project. We are experts in engineering top-quality hydronic and plumbing systems and plans that maximise energy efficiency, intended to save money for years to come. Our Hydronic Radiant Heat Systems are not only energy-efficient, they are also well designed to give you peace of mind.
Energy-efficient, comfortable heat :
what could be better ?
Engineered for excellence.
Designed to specification.
Where we start
Balance of sizing, spacing and length of tubing requirements :
Done to ensure compliance with budget constraints.
Cost-effective design :
Offers maximum efficiency and performance.
Heating system components size and configuration calculation :
Done using engineering software coupled with practical experience once energy requirements are determined.
Comprehensive 3D energy calculation analysis :
Done room by room to determine the exact needs of each space - intended occupancy and use of each space play key roles in the system design.
Whether you need a fully engineered and manufactured system, turn-key ready, or just want an efficient set of plans that you can work from yourself, we are the ones to call.
What’s included in every engineering project :
Tubing Layout
Tubing layout sheet :
• provides the tubing configuration to be installed for any particular floor or grade.
• shows a rendering detail of how the tubing embedment will be accomplished with all of the notes needed to visualise installation.
Identifiable serviceable and non-serviceable areas:
easy identification of areas to be serviced and specialty areas where tubing installation is to be avoided.
Scheduled notes:
describe various points of interest and callouts as required for a clear and concise plan.
Size, spacing, length, layout and color-coordinated tubing circuit :
all listed in detail on sheet for installation on this sheet.
Heating Zone Layout
Heating zone layout importance :
shows which areas will be independently controlled by a thermostat or other controller.
Color-coordinated layouts :
makes the print easily readable for zone coordination with details included to show the zone number and are of intended coverage.
Distribution Layout
Manifold rough-in rendering :
• attached to the sheet and helps visualise this part of the installation.
• use of callout tags to differentiate different manifolds.
Distribution layout sheet :
shows the supply and return lines to each manifold.
Size, run length and notes on distribution piping requirements :
description of each one is featured on this sheet.
Mechanical Room Layout
Mechanical room floorplan :
• shows the routing of the venting for the equipment.
• streamlines the installation of mechanical systems.
Physical size, locations, placement and required equipment configuration :
full details of each present on layout.
Mechanical room designs :
used to show each and every provided part for the pre-built boards, and how they fit together.
Mechanical Controls
Full control schematic :
• shows how each part of the system is integrated into a full and complete plan.
• shows point to point wiring connections for easier fowllowing and understanding of the plan.
Mechanical system operation :
is only as good as its control package.
Equipment Schedule
Equipment schedule list :
• details every piece of equipment used on the project.
• pertinent information for each component and its usage and tag.
• coordination and detail can be easily obtained.
• features equipment specifics.
