McKenney's, Inc. Leveraged Design/Build Expertise at a Packaging Manufacturing Plant in Charlotte

Atlanta, GA, May 4, 2015 (Newswire.com) - McKenney’s, Inc., the Southeast’s most trusted name in facility construction, operation and maintenance, overcame obstacles to install a process chiller and industrial package cooling unit at a packaging manufacturing plant.

The manufacturer’s cooling system was no longer reliable. At the worksite, there was no reasonable access to the plant’s rooftop to install the new air handling unit (AHU) and chiller on the side of the building. Also, careful coordination was needed to install the package unit and chiller simultaneously—with the plant’s production levels dependent on chilled water.

To gain access to the rooftop, the McKenney’s team coordinated with a neighboring facility and a local crane company to position a crane on the neighboring property. To install the chiller, McKenney’s met the customer’s last-minute request to reconfigure the piping necessary for other long-term maintenance and operation goals. Then, the team shut down the system during a short 36-hour window to quickly disconnect and reconnect piping without significantly disrupting production.
