HVAC Retrofit — Melbourne

Modernise existing HVAC systems to reduce energy, improve indoor comfort and meet Australian compliance — tailored retrofit strategies for commercial and industrial buildings across Melbourne.

  • Services: energy audits, system reconfiguration, controls upgrade, ductwork optimisation
  • Targets: reduced operational cost, improved IAQ, carbon footprint reduction

Project Overview

Our retrofit approach minimises disruption while delivering measurable savings. Typical scope includes plant assessment, controls integration, heat recovery and selective replacement of high-energy components.

  • Site survey & baseline metering
  • Performance-driven design
  • Commissioning & post-install monitoring

Our Process

  1. Initial consultation & data collection
  2. Detailed energy audit & modelling
  3. Cost-benefit analysis and scope optimisation
  4. Installation, commissioning and validation
  5. Ongoing monitoring and tuning

Integration of modern BMS/PLC logic, demand-based control, and remote monitoring to optimise runtime and reduce peak loads.

Adding heat recovery on AHUs and exhaust streams where feasible to recapture energy and improve efficiency.

We plan phased interventions to keep critical services online, with clear milestones and client sign-off at each stage.

Sustainability Outcomes

We align retrofit measures with Australian sustainability targets and provide measurable KPIs post-commissioning.

Measure Typical Savings Payback
Variable speed drives 10–18% 1–3 years
Controls optimisation 8–25% 0.5–2 years
Heat recovery 12–30% 2–5 years

Regulatory & NABERS

We document works to support NABERS and compliance reporting in Victoria, and coordinate with certifiers where required.
