Lowering an Indigochiller onto the Sky Studios roof

Five air-cooled Indigochiller units, each with a 1MW cooling capacity have been installed on the roof of the new building. Each Indigochiller provides chilled water, which is then pumped through insulated pipework to air handling units (AHUs). These AHUs will provide comfort cooling throughout the Sky Studios building, as well as some computer server cooling.
