3. An underfloor supply plenum space was renovated to minimize air leaks,
establish consistent static pressure for more efficient airflow and
conform to LEED® requirements.

4. The Challenge
McKenney’s was responsible for managing a multi-vendor initiative to
create a clean and airtight underfloor supply plenum as part of a state-of-
the-art building renovation. The team needed to locate and seal air leaks
in the floor and perimeter area, so temperatures could be controlled
more easily and accurately.
The Solution
The project added load to existing infrastructure. As a result, McKenney’s
devised a comprehensive “Method of Procedure” script—which included
contingency plans with redundant cooling in critical areas—to ensure the
renovation wouldn’t adversely affect other floors or systems. The
McKenney’s team worked closely with the general contractor and many
subcontractors to search for and repair leaks in the floor, around the
perimeter and in elevator shafts.

5. The Results
All critical facilities systems are operating as designed. The system is
maintaining static pressure and temperature accurately.
