Royal Poinciana Plaza
Scope of Work
When West Palm Beach’s historic Royal Poinciana high-end shopping plaza needed a facelift to make it more cozy and intimate, Advanced Air Systems (AAS) was trusted with upgrading the air conditioning (AC) systems at the iconic Eisenhower-era building. The renovation, which began in April of this year, took place while tenants occupied the building. The project’s general contractors trusted AAS with this difficult project due to its experience and in-house capabilities in sheet metal and cranes.
AAS worked closely with roofing, construction, property managers, and tenants to ensure this important project was completed on time and within budget, with zero safety issues. This included arranging with the restaurant tenants to stop work early to have their AC systems running in time for dinner. As with past AAS projects of similar scope, weekly communication meetings were held, issues were anticipated before they arose, and all milestones outlined in the project schedule were accomplished.
As part of the revamp, AAS was tasked with re-wiring all of the AC system’s electrical outlets, raising 50 AC units and attaching them to new hurricane stands, and replacing 40 exhaust fans. To accomplish this promptly, AAS used its in-house 75-ton crane to move the AC units to the upper deck of the roof so the re-roofing process could be accomplished. Once the roof was completed, the AC units were returned to their original location and attached to new hurricane stands.
This project was finished in 2015. You can visit this project by clicking here.
