conditions throughout the year. The client brief was clear; the solution had to be compact to fi t in the specifi ed fl oor slab, meet demanding heating and cooling loads, be responsive, simple to control, whisper quiet and look great. Jaga put forward its Clima Canal Trench
Convector, a compact unit measuring only 100mm high and 180mm wide. It incorporates a dynamic two pipe heat exchanger for both heating and comfort cooling circuits and a low- noise, low voltage fan and motor assembly. On paper this seemed an ideal solution but the client quite rightly wanted to see, touch, listen and measure the performance of the proposed off ering.
Factory visit Jaga was founded in 1962 and produces in Diepenbeek, Belgium in a 39,000m² modern manufacturing facility. The client visited the factory in July 2018 to witness performance tests of Clima Canal in Jaga’s purpose made research laboratory. The testing was extensive; thermal outputs, air distribution and noise levels were recorded in controlled design conditions for external temperature and water fl ow temperature.
Due diligence
Although happy with the factory visit, for a project of this magnitude the client group wanted to see Clima Canal operating for real, in a similar application and with the same design parameters.

They wanted to talk to the engineers, the
installers and the consumers, to fully convince themselves that Jaga was the right choice for them and all stakeholders.
Jaga operates globally and is particularly
strong in North America where they have successfully supplied Clima Canal in a number of prestigious residential high-rise tower blocks.
David Burns, Sir Robert McAlpine project manager for Victoria Square, said: “We had to make absolutely sure that Jaga’s Clima Canal was the ultimate option for Victoria Square. We visited fi ve sites in total, conducted additional testing and spoke face to face with all stakeholders. I was impressed with what I saw and heard, and returned fully satisfi ed that Jaga was the way forward.”
