In Progress

Tamarama Project

Architect: Madeleine Blanchfield Architects

Builder: Bellevarde Constructions

Location: Tamarama, Sydney NSW

System: Geothermal Exchange System with Vertical Ground Heat Exchanger

Capacity: 60kW

Project Brief/Scope:

High-end residential project
Variable-speed forced-air heating and cooling
Hydronic underfloor heating
Pool & domestic water heating
Limited space
Quiet operation

CWL Group have been engaged to provide an efficient and environmentally-friendly heating and cooling system for an energy-conscious client, successfully navigating such project challenges as:

Extremely limited space for fan-coil units and plant due to the contemporary architectural design
Various on-site coordination meetings to prepare for the successful installation of the vertical-ground heat exchanger within a space-constrained site
Mitigating local council noise concerns of conventional air-cooled systems

The limited site-footprint and council noise constraints made ground-source heating and cooling the obvious choice. However this also presented challenges in terms of executing the necessary drilling for the installation of the vertical ground heat exchanger.

CWL Group drew upon decades of experience to strategically plan the loop installation, which was completed successfully ahead of schedule and paves the way for the rest of the project to be completed with similar levels of success. Upon completion, the Tamarama project will be an impressive blueprint on how ground-source heating and cooling can revolutionise residential properties, regardless of site-impediments that others may deem insurmountable.

Our Trusted Partners

We wanted to drop you a line to say thank you for your expertise and professionalism during our geo journey. Your patience and outstanding knowledge were visible along the way and greatly appreciated. Congratulations in assembling a team who have all been of the same high standard. It has been a pleasure to deal with all of you.

- Jenine Cranston and Douglas Fone, Artarmon, Sydney

We engaged CWL for the geothermal exchange and HVAC works on our unique project in Bellevue Hill and were selected based on pricing and their previous experience. It turned out to be the best choice in subcontractors we made for the whole project. Their professionalism, work ethic, expertise and willing to help wherever needed made a highly complex services installation that much easier, and more efficient than expected. I’d like to personally thank James and the site team who put the extra effort in at all times to get our project over the line with remarkable results. Highly recommended Subcontractors and mechanical consultants.

- Theo Elphick, Site Manager, Built

A culture of striving for excellence combined with motivated and dedicated staff is what defines CWL Group. Their workmanship is second to none and it is obvious that all of the staff care about what they do. Commitments are met and exceeded and there are no problems that can’t be resolved. I’m looking forward to working with Clayton and his team in the future and have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone.

- Annemarie Rodrigo, Bellevue Hill House Keeper

I want to thank CWL Group for the outstanding work in installing our hydronic heating system. I have worked with many plumbers over the years and I have never seen such a high standard of workmanship. They came in on time and on budget. I cannot recommend the team from CWL Group highly enough.
