Summary

This paper describes a heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) upgrade on the 45-year-old Public Trustee Building located
at 4 Mort Street in the Canberra CBD. Significant improvements were made to energy performance, occupant comfort and plant
reliability, with the asset value estimated to increase by $1.4M and energy costs decreasing by $120K per annum. The project was
carried out within the constraints of a limited budget, space restrictions and the building being occupied during the upgrade.
Important issues behind the success of the project are covered in this paper, including the energy audit, building simulation, Green
Building Fund (GBF) grant application, the technology adopted and the commissioning and post-construction monitoring process.
