Haden is due
to complete the construction phase of its latest Health industry project
in NSW, the Mater Hospital Newcastle.
Haden’s engineering team took a collaborative approach to the design
phase of this PPP project, actively working with the design consultants
at each stage to maximise the energy and cost efficiency of the
installation. This included using a central energy plant, variable speed
high efficiency chillers, cooling towers, fans and pumps, all selected
for their ability to improve energy efficiency.
Hospitals always provide challenges to HVAC systems because of the
important role the systems play in ventilating and minimising exposure
hazards for patients, workers and visitors. This includes minimising the
airborne transmission of viruses, bacteria, fungal spores and
bio-aerosols, as well as the environmental impact of the building and
its systems.
Haden’s work on the Mater Hospital is the latest in a growing number
of projects involving the development of energy efficient health
industry facilities.
