  • AEROTHERMY: The hotel has 6 Q-TONs for the production of SHW.
  • CHILLERS: The hotel has 2 chillers to air condition the building.
  • BOILERS: The hotel has 3 gas condensing boilers for the production of SHW and heating.
  • AERATED TAPS: All the hotel’s taps have aerators that mix water and air, but without sacrificing comfort or a high-pressure sensation.
  • DUAL-FLUSH TOILETS: Dual-flush toilets with 3-liter and 6-liter settings, and even partial flushes. This system makes it possible to reduce the building water's consumption.
