For the Category A fit out, fan calls are installed at approximately 6m centres in the internal zone and 4m centres in the perimeter zone.
Perimeter zone fan coil units are sized to deal with the facade solar gains and winter heat losses. Accordingly. the internal zones are effectively buffered by the perimeter zones and the fan coil units only need to condition against occupancy, lighting and small power gains.
For the Category A fit out, the internal fan coil units have been selected as a larger size compared to the perimeter units to ease ceiling void congestion. This results in each internal unit serving an area of approximately 20m2.
