Plant Room Upgrade – North Devon (Barnstaple)

MSB were appointed to deliver a comprehensive upgrade of the heating and ventilation plant at a site in North Devon, providing a modern, efficient, and resilient solution tailored to a challenging operational environment.

The project involved the installation of new Ideal commercial boilers, configured to supply multiple radiator circuits and support several existing Air Handling Unit (AHU) systems across the facility. Our engineers carried out detailed integration works to ensure smooth hydraulic and control compatibility between the new boiler plant and the existing distribution network.

In addition to the heating upgrade, MSB undertook a full refurbishment of five AHUs. This included replacement of key components, performance optimisation, and general mechanical refurbishment to enhance airflow, reliability, and long-term serviceability. These improvements provide the client with a more robust and energy-efficient ventilation system, strengthening both comfort and operational resilience throughout the building.

The result is a significantly upgraded plant room and HVAC infrastructure that delivers improved performance, reduced energy consumption, and greater reliability — all achieved with minimal disruption to the site’s day-to-day operations.
