Helping a traditional Middle Eastern pastime get the go-ahead during events season

Shisha bars have long been embedded in Middle Eastern culture, albeit their origins are disputed, with the popularity of such facilities normally peaking during the months of April and May.

Because of this, we are already seeing enquiries from hotels, restaurants and other business proprietors looking to open temporary shisha cafés before the festivities commence. read more

Luxury hotel requests cooling solution to assist tile laying process

Interior tile installations have very precise temperature requirements, with the thin-set mortar and grouting particularly susceptible to improper conditions. Curing times are greatly affected by extreme temperatures, and this can also damage an adhesive’s properties which in turn may lead to bond failure.

For this reason, a luxury hotel in Dubai recently approached Andrews Sykes Climate Rental prior to laying the tiles inside a number of swimming pools on site.

The hotel has several premium suites – each with their own individual pools – and these were all subject to an intricately designed tiling pattern that necessitated our assistance. read more

Premium hotel kept cool by chiller and ventilation dual solution

For the last three years, Andrews Sykes Climate Rental has provided a well-known luxury hotel in the UAE with temporary cooling and ventilation. This seasonal requirement is an annual project that tends to occur in either July or August, when average temperatures regularly exceed 43°C.

In order to optimise space, our client had converted part of the hotel’s basement into a temporary office and subsequently required assistance with creating a more appealing working environment. Unsurprisingly, conditions beneath ground were even warmer than the outdoor ambient temperature, so a climate control arrangement was desperately needed! read more

To achieve this, we designed and supplied a low temperature chiller configuration with a cooling capacity that exceeded 2MW.
