Andrews’ engineers heralded following successful installation for major Belgian TV broadcaster!

There’s no better indicator of our aptitude than clients taking the trouble to point it out – and we must admit, it’s very nice to hear!

Our team in Belgium were grateful to receive another positive testimonial earlier this week, after a potentially disastrous situation was resolved.

One of the country’s largest TV and radio stations suffered an unexpected cooling outage, leaving a large server room at the mercy of the elements.

The multinational utilities company responsible for the building’s maintenance requirements quickly got in touch with our Belgian colleagues, with the severity of the issue communicated in no uncertain terms.

Italy’s iconic Fashion Week: Four shows, various locations, dozens of units and one big triumph!

Last week, the curtain came down on another successful and highly publicised Milan Fashion Week! Attended by revered designers, industry insiders, and others fortunate enough to receive an invitation, the shows are among the world’s most exclusive events – although our colleagues in Italy were permitted more than a sneak preview!

Offshore technology leaders turn to UK’s climate control leaders!

Having installed countless high capacity cooling solutions in petrochemical plants across the country, we are rightly considered industry leaders when it comes to the climate control requirements of these specialist applications.

Our expertise is so widely recognised that we regularly undertake projects in conjunction with the sector’s biggest players, including a recent air conditioning hire involving an internationally revered oil and marine hose manufacturer.

The client had previously hired an HPAC unit for use in their Yorkshire production facility, and they were looking for similar this time around. Their main focus was ensuring that machinery was kept cool during the highly publicised heatwave, with an HPAC 45 model selected due to its suitability to areas of up to 1,000m³ in size.

Practical cooling, economical functionality and zero emissions: meet the Arena 15!

In many industries, evaporative cooling technology is now preferred to traditional air conditioning systems because of the benefits offered. An evaporative cooler is economical, delivers excellent air quality, produces no carbon emissions, and is incredibly easy to use and maintain.

These factors form the basis of our decision to expand our range, and we are delighted to announce the recent addition of our new Arena 15 unit.

As with all evaporative coolers offered by Andrews Sykes, this latest product is perfect for use in applications where there are a lack of available openings to permit the use of extraction ducting.

Tailored air conditioning solution during the peak of summer? No problem!

The healthcare industry has always been a key market sector for us, due in no small part to the fact that our excellent service lends itself to the needs of critical applications that demand swift action. That’s something we can and do provide regularly, which is why we have established a reputation for speed and reliability.

Not every project we work on involves dozens of units and multiple delivery drivers, however, naturally, we take every requirement seriously.

In the aftermath of the recent record-breaking spell, we received a cooling enquiry from a suburban health centre. Our client was conscious that although temperatures were not as high as they previously had been, the potential for another heatwave meant that pre-emptive action should be taken.Following a discussion with the site’s facilities manager, it was decided that a combination of Polar Wind, Polar Breeze and Double Cool units would be necessary to cool all parts of the building. The Double Cools were deployed in a clinical room which had no windows or openings, while the two air conditioning models were stationed inside the waiting area and reception.

Unprecedented heat prompts us to pull out all the stops!

“We always go the extra mile for our clients” must be one of the most common claims made by businesses in the UK, but how many truly live up to that billing when their services are stretched due to circumstances beyond their control?

It’s fair to say that last week’s record-breaking temperatures put quite a strain on our resources. Staying on top of the online enquiries and inbound telephone calls was challenging enough, without the small matter of having to ensure each air conditioning hire was agreed, coordinated and delivered in as timely a fashion as possible.

Air conditioning trinity cools uni building during student clearing process

You might expect the summer to be a quieter period for universities up and down the country, but that’s not entirely true. In fact, one of our major account customers – a facilities management service provider – has just placed a significant air conditioning order with us to ensure a campus building stays cool during the student Clearing season.

The building in question comprises a large registration room, a separate breakout area, and four classrooms. Each application presented its own challenges in terms of ascertaining the best solution, which is why we sent one of our experts to conduct an assessment on site.

Don’t lose your cool at work this summer!

This response generator has been created to help workers remain professional – when colleagues and clients drive them to lose their cool.

Rather than ranting on email or blowing your top on a phone call, the tool allows you to choose what you would really like to say to a colleague or customer, before giving you a more professional version.

The tongue-in-cheek generator was created after research of 2,000 office workers which found three in five have ended up losing their cool at work.

The top thing to cause people to lose their temper was unreasonable colleagues, followed by a big workload and making mistakes.

Andrews takes centre stage at London’s Shaftesbury Avenue!

If Shaftesbury Avenue is considered the go-to place for onstage entertainment, then it seems fitting that a well-known theatre in the area saw us as the go-to place for temporary air conditioning! On this occasion, our client’s HVAC system had partially failed which left parts of the building without heating or cooling.

Due to the season, our customer’s primary objective was to restore an air conditioning supply – hence their reason for getting in touch with us.

The theatre’s facility manager explained over the phone that the breakdown meant that dressing rooms were likely to become overbearing, particularly when the actors and actresses were required to switch outfits quickly and frequently.
