Lifting and Lowering in Surrey Quays

Our team has been busy in Surrey Quays delivering and installing 1no Water Source Heat Pump and 3no thermal stores.

The WSHP unit, weighing 5 tons, was fitted with bespoke movement devices that were prefabricated in and tested in advance by our team at our own facility. This customised equipment allowed us to easily manoeuvre the heavy unit into temporary storage, once we had lifted and lowered it into the basement level via a central soft spot.

The 3 thermal stores (each  2000kg – 3000kg) were also lowered into the basement, before then being transported on our bespoke vessel barrows, with each vessel in turn temporarily positioned in storage using a double porta gantry system rigged prior to movement.

We look forward to returning next month to install all the plant into the respective plant rooms and onto plinths.
