Contract Value £160,000

In March 2010 Royce Group Ltd was awarded the contract to supply and install the mechanical services installation for the refurbishment of Victoria Coach Station, Buckingham Palace Rd, London.

The contract consisted of the refurbishment of the fresh air supply and extract systems feeding the ticket hall, along with new inverter is driven controls and monitoring systems.

A Daikin VRV Heat recovery system was installed to provide heating and cooling to the public and staff areas of the ticket hall. The system was rated at 150 kW of cooling and consisted of a mixture of ducted and 1-way blow cassette units. 2 biddle door curtains were also installed at the entrance to the ticket hall.

New plumbing services were also installed, and the WC areas refurbished with new sanitary ware, brassware and extract systems.

The work was completed on time with the added benefit of the VRV system being handed over to the client several weeks earlier than required. This eased the considerable discomfort the staff had to contend with, working in front of South facing windows without the benefit of air conditioning.
