Office is kept cool to ensure worker productivity

It is becoming trendy in the UAE for warehouses to be converted into office spaces. This is becoming very popular in areas such as Al Quoz, Ras Al Khor & Jebel Ali Industrial Area. The problem our clients experience when converting warehouses into office spaces, is that the warehouses were designed to store product and often built without AC units, chillers or air handlers.

Andrews Sykes is often called to assist people in warehouses to help with cooling and air distribution. Air conditioning equipment in warehouses is designed differently to office blocks. The most common error is one centralised AC system which can only be adjusted by one thermostat. The second major challenge is that there is no duct system to provide air distribution. read more
