Chilling out in the UK

unham-Bush is a global manufacturer of commercial and industrial air conditioning and heating products. Located in Havant, Hampshire, the company operates a 10,000m3 manufacturing facility involved in producing a wide range of high specifi cation fan coil units as well as heating equipment. For many years Dunham-Bush has manufactured water- and air-cooled packaged water chillers in the UK and sold them into the European and Middle East markets. Eventually the company expanded to factories in Malaysia, China


and the USA. Sales of the company’s chillers from these factories have grown over several years and the products have been developed into a comprehensive range of equipment which addresses the requirements of most global markets.


More recently, the company identifi ed an opportunity to off er packaged chillers alongside the fan coil units, enabling it to off er complete solutions.


The business has been preparing for the past year to expand packaged chiller production with

Test Facility


Dunham-Bush in the UK not only has the capacity to manufacture air- and water-cooled packaged chillers, it also has the capability to test and demonstrate its products to customers in a recently constructed test area.


There are two test stands: one for chillers with cooling capacities up to 1400kW with the cooling load for air-cooled chillers provided by four modular gas boilers; the other for water-cooled chillers with cooling capacities up to 8800kW. Both test stands are controlled by a fully automatic control centre enabling the selection of test conditions at various levels of load. The business will make the very most of having a chiller test facility on site and available for demonstrating its products to customers. As this project develops, the company plans to introduce more of the products available from the Dunham-Bush brand into the UK manufacturing facility, such as packaged roof-top units and air handling units.


Initially, UK production will focus on selected model ranges that suit the company’s target markets.
