only partially operational. In order to maintain
100 percent uptime on the manufacturing
floor, McKenney’s had to perform the installation without shutting down the plant.
THE SOLUTION
The McKenney’s team provided multiple
system options to Heatcraft and implemented
a phased installation that would not disrupt

and construction activities were conducted
through the winter months to take advantage
of the cooler temperature outside.

of 875 tons—was completed in four months
from start of design to Heatcraft’s acceptance
of the work.
