cKenneys overcame obstacles

to install a process chiller and
industrial package cooling unit
at a packaging manufacturing plant.
THE CHALLENGE
The manufacturers cooling system was no
longer reliable. At the worksite, there was not
reasonable access to the plants 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 simultaneouslywith the plants
production levels dependent on chilled water.
THE SOLUTION
To gain access to the rooftop, the McKenneys
team coordinated with a neighboring facility
and a local crane company to position a crane
on the neighboring property. To install the chiller,
McKenneys met the customers 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.
THE RESULTS
By leveraging its design/build expertise and
coordination skills, McKenneys completed
the installation on time and under budget
while exceeding the customers expectations.
