Of course, Moscow's best neighbourhoods arepreferred. Finding a
prime address with excel-lent local and communication
infrastructure isone of the main stages in the process of
estab-lishing a new branch office. For this step, thesupport of
local companies specialised in de-velopment projects like the
Romanov Develop-ment Group is crucial.
The company headquarters are located in the“Romanov dvor” office
building, most signifi-cant project realized by the “Romanov
Devel-opment Group”. The literal translation of Ro-manov dvor is
"court of the Romanovs" andrefers to the estate of the Romanov tsar
fam-ily that was located at this place in the 17thcentury. The name
shows the proximity to thecentre of powers, the Kremlin. The
building lo-cated near the Romanov Pereulok is only 500

m from the Red Square and one of the mostprestigious addresses
in town. With a surfaceof 50,000 m2, the building offers enough
spacefor its tenants, leading multinational compa-nies and banks,
that attach great importanceto highest comfort and value the
building'spleasant atmosphere with an atrium, wintergarden,
spacious front staircase, view lifts andunderground parking. Of
course, the buildingis equipped with modern building engineeringfor
air conditioning and central heating.
The required air-conditioning installationswere realised in
several sequences by twocontractors. The first installation with
Güntnerdrycoolers and an overall refrigerating capacityof 1490 kW
was designed and implemented bythe contractor Trane. For server
room cooling,units of the series GFH were selected. Drycool-ers of
the series GFD were installed for air-con-ditioning the seven
storey building. These unitsoperate with ethylene glycol and are
equippedwith aluminium fins and copper tubes for safeand reliable
cooling.
The drycoolers have been installed on the roof.
It was possible to install the units on the roof,because the
units have such a low noise levelthat the noise control regulations
can be ob-served even at night. Due to the architecture ofthe
building, the installation of the units on theroof was quite a
technical challenge. A specialcrane was necessary to lift the units
to the roof,because the building is located in an area ofhigh
housing density.
In 2007, an additional server room was creat-ed. For equipping
the server room with cool-ing installations, the company Artek
selected
two Güntner drycoolers of the series GFW withan overall
refrigerating capacity of 580 kW. Al-so in this case the
installation was carried outsmoothly with the necessary technical
support.
From the roof of the office buildingone has a good view of the
Kremlin.
