The Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (H-JAIA) has a total area of 4,700 acres, of which the Terminal Building, Concourses T, A, B, C, D and E, and the International Concourse total 130 acres. H-JAIA is also one of the world’s busiest airports, handling upwards of 250,000 travelers and 2,600 flights per day.
The Buffalo Air Handling roof mounted units service Concourses A, B, C and D. We supplied 19 units for Concourse A, 17 units for Concourse B, 17 units for Concourse C and 15 units for Concourse D.
Buffalo Air Handling supplied 68 air handling units (AHU’s) to replace existing equipment. The AHU’s had to be designed to handle additional capacity, while maintaining the existing footprint and matching the existing openings exactly. With flights arriving as early as 5:00 AM and taking off as late as midnight, the work had to be staged and conducted at night. There could be no delays or gate closures.
The sixty-eight units were shipped in ten phases, beginning 10 weeks after order placement and continuing two weeks apart to completion. The units arrived with controls completely mounted and wired, so the installing contractors could have the replacement units up and running by the following morning. All units arrived as promised and all concourses operated continuously throughout the process.
