The Shire of Augusta Margaret River is redeveloping its 35-year-old former cultural centre building, creating a new entertainment and arts precinct to accommodate the growing needs of residents and visitors to the region.

This multi-purpose, highly flexible entertainment and business events complex will be known as Margaret River HEART which stands for Hub of Entertainment, Arts and Regional Tourism.

This situation required substantial fresh air along with heating and cooling so the use of packaged air conditioning unit incorporating energy recovery was a natural choice. The specification asked for 3850 l/sec airflow with 125 Kw of cooling.

Armcor was able to match the specifications with its XEP4000P3 unit which incorporated a three stage cooling system, economy fresh air damper system and a high level controller to work in with the BMS.
