Renovation of the point Saint-Charles Sports-Centre Arena
01/2016
Built in 1960 in the heart of the Pointe-Saint-Charles borough, this sports complex includes an arena, a swimming pool, a gym and community activity rooms. It is an important gathering place for residents of the neighbourhood.
In order to comply with the Montreal Protocol for the elimination of HCFCs by 2020, the City of Montreal has undertaken a conversion program of the refrigeration systems of its arenas. The renovation of the refrigeration system offers the opportunity to bring the building architecture and HVAC systems up to current standards, and to improve energy efficiency through energy recovery. This major renovation is seeking LEED Silver certification.
On this project, Synairgis acts as LEED certification coordinator, responsible for achieving the LEED certification level and the environmental objectives targeted by the City of Montreal.
