Once completed, the combined cooling capacity of the installed HVAC equipment - which includes 800 fan coil units, 40 air-handling units, eight water chillers, and a number of packaged units and central split systems - will be approximately 5,700 tons of refrigeration.
In the central region, ZAC innovative climate control solutions will provide a cooling capacity of approximately 7,500 tons to Riyadh’s Al Salam Commercial Center and Azizia-Panda Hypermarket.
“ZAC has developed tremendous expertise through the years in the medical care and commercial sectors. Our highly specialized air conditioning applications have been deployed in the landmark International Medical Center in Jeddah, the Khamis Mushayt Hospital, the Staten Island University Hospital, and a medical center in Zurich, Switzerland most recently. Likewise, most shopping malls and super stores have been supplied with ZAC ‘Classic’ and ‘Cooline’ brands both in the home market of Saudi Arabia and the GCC and as far as Bangladesh and Australia.” said Osama Bunyan, Vice President, ZAC.

The scope calls for the provision huge HVAC equipment such as 16 large ventilation units, 8 double skin chilled water air handling units, 34 roof top packaged units and 10 highly specialized ventilation units for various buildings.
“This recent project for the power generation industry is further testimony to our position as the leading Middle East and international manufacturer of air conditioning systems. ZAC’s special application solutions are designed and manufactured to the most stringent specifications in the industry. We have supplied Ghazlan power plant, Shoaiba phase I power plant, and Ras Laffan facility in Qatar, with the most advanced and the largest equipment ever for the power generation industry in the Middle East. Our commitment to our domestic market is as strong and important as that to clients in the more than 75 international markets we serve,” concluded Osama Bunyan.
