Andrews Specialist Hire Division were commissioned to supply three 550kW Fluid Chillers into the City of London whilst the existing units were being replaced due to the R22 change out programme. Andrews unique 550kW chiller was chosen to supply critical services due to its small footprint, which is exclusive to Andrews Sykes. The units were delivered and commissioned on a Sunday, which required a road closure and 200 tonne crane to lift the three Chiller Hire units 10 floors on to the roof. Utilising in-line pumps and pressurisation vessels, Andrews Chiller Hire maintained cooling throughout the building with zero failures. For more information visit www.andrews-sykes.com

CCS Saves The Day
When a major cable TV and communications company suffered a chiller breakdown in a business-critical IT and communications room, temperatures soared. Fortunately a climate contingency plan was in place and a CCS business continuity team was deployed. Five portable air conditioning units with remote condensers were delivered and installed within two hours, averting costly downtime and ensuring customer satisfaction was maintained. ” We received notification that our existing cooling system was failing, a CCS technician had visited site 3 months prior and we had signed an agreement to cover said emergency, we contacted CCS at 3.00 am in the morning and within 2 hours the temporary cooling equipment was installed and operational. The potential cost to the business in failure of cooling equipment for our data room would have been hundreds of thousands of pounds” Phillip Radburn (Head of IT)

A tourist attraction in the North East of England called upon Sykes Pumps for their help when their beach located pump that provides fresh seawater to the attraction’s aquarium failed. Without this pump the well-being of the species in their care were put at risk, meaning many of the animals needed to be transported to other similar facilities around the country - a fatal option for some of the residents. An evacuation procedure such as this would not only be costly to arrange and execute, but would also loose hundreds of thousands of pounds in lost revenue at the height of the summer season.
The Sykes Pumps team were able to offer an emergency response within 4 hours of the initial call to not only provide the facility with a temporary pump to keep the attraction open, but also managed to source the parts and provide an experienced engineer to repair the original pump in record time; meaning the facility could remain open and the precious animals could remain in their acclimatised habitat without disturbance.
This is a perfect example of how Sykes Pumps strive to provide the highest levels of customer service in an efficient and professional manner. If you would like to find out more information on the equipment and services that Sykes Pumps provide, please visit www.andrews-sykes.com
Sykes Pumps were able to come to the rescue of a major tourist attraction in the North West.
