It makes sense that different building types require different approaches when it comes to planning.
From architectural and structural designs to fit-out plans and heating and cooling solutions, we understand that the end goal affects the way a build is planned and executed.
This week, we take a look at a variety of building types, and the specific heating and cooling requirements that are often needed.

New apartment builds
Industrial projects like new apartment builds require meticulous planning and slick communication between all trades from day one.
From initial design plans with an architect to the actual build and finished with finishes and appliance installation, new apartment builds can take anywhere from six months to several years.
Factors that influence a build length include weather, delays in construction supplies, any design changes, as well as any problems that are unexpectedly faced.
Small ducted systems
Coolpro’s small ducted systems fit in where others don’t: our customised solutions can fit into the smallest of ceiling space and are perfect for a densely populated residence like an apartment block.
The slick systems will not only heat and cool effectively, but they will look good, too.
Bad design slows a project
Poor design (and the problems that arise from it) not only delays the completion of a project, but can also drive up the budget.
In terms of heating and cooling, bad design results in “leaky” homes. That is, homes that lack proper insulation and end up leaking warm air during winter and cool air during summer, even while a heating or cooling system is in use.
Well-insulated apartments make better use of their heating and cooling systems which as a result keeps electricity bills low.
It’s the important insulation step – during design and construction – that has a lasting effect on the apartment one, five, and ten years after it has been built.
New homes
Building a home is an exciting venture, and a home owner puts their faith into a trusted home builder who will co-ordinate all associated trades in order to complete a successful home build.
As part of Coolpro’s job, we work closely with architects in particular to create plans that not only adhere to the aesthetic requirements of a client, but fulfil building codes and regulations, too.
Joining a project later on
Architectural plans already finalised? That’s OK: our small ducted systems fit where others don’t, so even if you’ve got the plans, we can still create the right solution.
Air quality in the home
From pollen allergens to pets, air quality in the home can be poor. In fact, did you know that is can be five times poorer than outdoor air?
The right air conditioning solution can change that! Ventilation, humidity control, and filters are key to improving the quality of air in a home through the heating and cooling system. Read more about airborne allergens in the home in this blog post.
Air conditioner ducts in multi-storey offices
Whether it’s a complete gut-job renovation or a multi-storey office build from scratch, commercial fit-out professionals understand that the right strategy undermines the rest of the entire project.
They rely on specialised advice and solutions from a variety of contributing trades that are all working towards a successful project completion.
From their own point of view, commercial fit-out professionals understand the demand for architecturally sound constructions. Large commercial buildings that hold corporates such as banks require flexibility and solutions that are built to the highest standards.
Comfort is no exception: the right ducted heating and cooling solution keeps employees, clients, and visitors comfortable at any time of the year. Through careful planning, air conditioner ducts are discrete and can even adapt to existing architectural plans.
Retail stores
Today, a retail store is more than a place for customers to purchase goods. Now, people want an experience; they want an aseptically pleasing store that creates the right kind of ambiance, and styling has never been more important, too.
The following image shows how Coolpro’s slick heating and cooling solutions maintained Zimmermann’s sleek, crisp fit-out in their new High Street, Armadale store. Can you spot where the grilles are hidden?
Homes by the beach
There are a number of natural considerations we must take into account when looking at creating the right bespoke heating and cooling solution for a commercial or residential builds. Three major factors include:
- Elevation / altitude
- Position
- Facing direction
Did you know that the Mornington Peninsula’s population is forecast to grow by 20% in the next 20 years? As a result, it’s predicted more than 16,000 new properties will be built by 2036.
