Village West Apartments, London

The Village West apartment building needed a reliable and robust make-up air (MUA) handling system. We at O’Dell stepped in to provide a solution that ensured optimal ventilation for the multi-storey condominium.
Air Handling
London
Multi-Unit Residential

The Village West apartment building in London, Ontario, is a multi-storey condominium located at 1349-1361 Commissioners Road West. The building required a dependable and robust make-up air (MUA) handling system to ensure proper ventilation in its corridors.

Challenges

The need for a reliable and efficient MUA system was crucial to maintain the indoor air quality and comfort for the residents of the Village West apartment building. The challenge was to find a solution that could deliver high performance within the space and budget constraints.

The Solution

We supplied Valent’s VPR-V10 MUA handling unit to deliver ventilation air to the building’s corridors. At 1,500 CFM with gas heat and packaged DX cooling (18.4 SEER), the VPR-V10 offers substantial value in a compact form.

Our Approach

We worked in collaboration with Collins Engineering and Marty’s Heating & Cooling to ensure the successful implementation of the system. The equipment start-up and commissioning ran smoothly, thanks to Valent’s rigorous end-of-line testing prior to shipment.

The VPR-V10 features include:

  • Factory-programmed PLC controls
  • 2-inch foam-injected double wall panels
  • Efficient direct drive, backward inclined plenum fan with EC motor
  • 150-MBH high turn-down gas furnace (409 Stainless Steel)
  • Packaged DX cooling (18.4 SEER) with:
    • Inverter scroll compressor
    • Active head pressure control with EC motor condenser fans
    • Hot gas reheat

Conclusion

This was the first Valent unit supplied by O’Dell, and the installation was a huge success. We are very excited about our future with Valent and look forward to delivering more quality equipment with real value. The successful collaboration and smooth execution of this project highlight our commitment to providing reliable and efficient solutions for our clients.
