We are thrilled to inform own office building and our upcoming Co-Working space is the first building in Coimbatore to achieve the EDGE ADVANCED green building preliminary certification.
InHabit@Work will provide best in class Indoor Environment Quality giving utmost importance to health and productivity of occupants. In spite of being located in the congested city centre, the building has 100% daylighting with access to views and connectivity to nature through various biophilic elements like terrace gardens, green walls and water bodies.
The centralised air conditioning is a one of its kind hybrid system using a combination of radiant cooling with chilled water supplied through a LG hydrokit powered by the centralised air cooled VRF system which also provides additional cooling and dehumidification. Additionally, there is a dedicated Treated Fresh Air unit with heat recovery working along with high efficiency BLDC ceiling fans.
There are many other unique features that have helped improve the environmental performance of the building.
