The interventions described here involve the installation of new systems , sized and configured according to the building envelope characteristics, volumes, occupancy, and energy objectives. Depending on the type of space, we integrate wall-mounted heat pumps or air conditioners for targeted zones, central heat pumps or air conditioners for complete distribution, and multi-zone systems when several areas need to be controlled independently; some configurations also favor air-to-water systems when a hydronic approach is required. For self-contained units in light hospitality establishments, retail spaces, or offices, the PTAC/VTAC (Total Percentage Capacity/Temperature Percentage Capacity ) systems operate on a room-by-room control basis, while ventilation (air exchangers, humidity control, fresh air supply) is integrated to stabilize air quality and humidity levels. This selection applies to houses , multi-unit residential buildings , commercial spaces , and mixed-use buildings , based on:
-
Usage profile (schedules, density, critical areas, comfort requirements)
-
Thermal loads (gains, losses, internal contributions, seasonal constraints)
-
Operating objectives (efficiency, modulation, energy costs, stability)
