The 750-square-meter pet store of the Musti ja Mirri chain is located in Vantaa in a building whose facade was not allowed to be changed. The store is popular, and in the summer, the lively number of customers combined with the large number of lighting and equipment made the store uncomfortably hot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Store manager Koskinen describes the situation before the solution: \u201cDuring the summer heat, the store could be almost 30 degrees. It was unpleasant for both customers and staff. Animal welfare was also a concern \u2013 too much heat stresses the animals.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, installing traditional cooling solutions was challenging. The building's historic facade was protected, and outdoor units or other visible equipment were not allowed to be installed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Musti and Mirri contacted Renewee when looking for a solution that would not compromise or change the building's facade, but would effectively cool the store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cMany companies said it wouldn't work. Renewe's experts, on the other hand, said it would work and started thinking about creative solutions,\u201d Koskinen recalls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Renewe designed and delivered an innovative water compressor unit solution that did not require outdoor units on the facade:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cooling implemented with water compressor units:<\/strong> All refrigeration equipment<\/a> were placed inside the store in the warehouse and back rooms, where they were integrated discreetly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
