A new air conditioning system should give many years of service. For this reason it is essential that its performance and cost over the whole of its life is taken into account by system designers, specifiers and end users.

At Denco we call this approach Lifespan and it encompasses every aspect of a system’s ‘DNA’ including its design, manufacture, energy efficiency and maintenance – even its safe end-of-life disposal.

We welcome the call of the President of the Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers who has challenged the industry to provide proper lifecycle data for at least five years with every system it designs and installs. This is becoming ever more important as end users face rising energy costs and a raft of legislation intended to reduce the environmental impact of air conditioning.

A longer-term perspective will also help to break the outdated obsession with selecting equipment on lowest first cost. Engineering consultants are now expected to explain the cost of ownership of building services plant. This means adding energy consumption, maintenance and upgrading cost to the original purchase price so users can make a more informed choice.

Lifespan ensures we can offer you complete customised solutions that incorporate the highest standards of system performance and operating efficiency. For example, all Denco systems will include sophisticated microprocessor control systems that eliminate waste and cut energy bills.

Support is equally important and our technical back-up service can help you manage your installation through changes in use, planned maintenance and progressive updating. In this way you can be certain your Denco air conditioning system will continue to provide excellent value throughout its life.
