Mechanical Design
At Luths, we provide practical and sustainable mechanical design services tailored to meet the unique needs of each project. Our work prioritises energy efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and compliance with the latest standards, ensuring that every system we design supports the long-term performance of your building.
Heating Design
The key to any good heating design is a detailed model and simulation tool. We use the latest dynamic software to allow us to present to the client the interactions between energy saving and required comfort in realistic conditions. Our engineers have a detailed understanding of fabric build-ups, air tightness of the envelope, heating and ventilation systems to allow realistic calculations.
Once a set of design calculations has been done we can find the optimum balance between lowest energy use and meeting the required room comfort temperatures under average (and worst case conditions). Different options for heat sources or emitters can be quickly trialled to get the optimal solution.
We then can then specify equipment, pipe runs and provided full 2D or 3D spatial drawings if required.
Ventilation Design
Often overlooked, a good ventilation design goes hand in hand with a comfortable building. A good design will take into account flow rates and duct sizing, duct loss and system balancing to not only achieve a good level of comfort but also reduce energy, noise and condensation issues. Mechanical design is a key part of creating buildings that are comfortable, efficient, and environmentally friendly.
