Energy efficient cooling for Lutwyche suit production facility

EcoCooling, Europe’s largest supplier of evaporative coolers, were called in to provide a cooling solution for Cheshire Bespoke who produce the famous Lutwyche bespoke suits from their production facility in Crewe.   The problem was most acute in the main production area where the suits are tailored; this is situated on a mezzanine floor where temperatures were reaching up to 350C.

Mr Lutwyche needed a cost effective and efficient solution to cool his workers on the mezzanine level and also the bottom area where the steam irons were situated.

The solution

A single roof mounted EcoCooler discharging cooled fresh air through horizontally mounted ductwork and a series of grilles positioned above the work stations.

The ductwork was positioned so that the air provided cooling for the mezzanine floor and at the same time discharged cooled air to the lower floor where the steam irons are located.

The air temperature on the mezzanine floor has now been reduced to an acceptable level of below 250C.   A pleasant working environment has now been created leading to increased efficiency and improved moral.  This has been achieved using just one EcoCooler at an installed cost of under 5K  which has been able provide up to 35kw of equivalent cooling load from a 13amp electrical supply and a simple water connection, with running costs expected to be in the region of 10p per hour EcoCooling was the obvious choice for Energy efficient cooling.
