Split, VRF and chilled-water air conditioning, ventilation, smoke control and ductwork — sized by heat-load calculation and balanced on commissioning.
VAKRUM designs and installs air conditioning and ventilation systems for offices, hotels, hospitals, factories and public buildings across Uganda and East Africa — from single rooms to complete central plant.
Every system is sized from a room-by-room heat-load calculation, so units are neither oversized nor struggling. Air handling units, ductwork and insulated chilled-water pipework are installed by our own crews, then tested, balanced and commissioned before handover.
The right system for the space, the budget and the running cost.
Healthy indoor air and safe removal of heat, fumes and odours.
Systems that keep escape routes clear of smoke in a fire.
Fabricated and installed to the approved shop drawings.
Insulated and clad pipework that delivers cooling without losses or condensation.
The finishing work that makes a system perform as designed.
| System | Best for | Key advantage |
|---|---|---|
| Wall split / cassette | Single rooms, small offices, shops | Low cost and quick to install |
| Ducted split | Suites, open-plan floors, villas | Hidden units, even air distribution |
| VRF / VRV | Hotels, offices and multi-zone buildings | Individual zone control and high efficiency |
| Chilled water | Large buildings, hospitals and campuses | Central plant, long service life, flexible expansion |
Our engineers visit site, confirm the scope, measure up and review the architectural or MEP drawings.
System selection, calculations and sizing, then coordinated AutoCAD shop drawings, specifications and a priced BOQ.
Technical submittals for client and consultant approval, then sourcing, import and delivery of the approved brands.
Supervised VAKRUM installation crews working to the approved drawings, with safe-work permits and daily site records.
Pressure and leak tests, refrigerant charging, air and water balancing to design flow and full performance testing.
As-built drawings and O&M manuals, then planned maintenance: filter cleaning, coil cleaning, refrigerant checks and spares.
Office towers, banks, shops and malls
Guest rooms, apartments and serviced residences
Hospitals, clinics and laboratories
Factories, warehouses and process areas
Schools, universities and government buildings
Server rooms, control rooms and switch rooms
We calculate the heat load of each room from its size, glazing, sun exposure, occupancy, lighting and equipment, then select units to match. Correct sizing gives better comfort and lower electricity bills than guessing by floor area.
VRF suits most hotels and office buildings and gives individual control per room. Chilled water suits large buildings, hospitals and campuses where a central plant is easier to run and expand. We compare both on capital and running cost for your project.
Yes. We offer planned maintenance contracts covering filter and coil cleaning, refrigerant checks, electrical checks and repairs, for systems we installed and for existing installations.
Yes. We design stair pressurisation and smoke extract systems and interface fans and dampers with the fire alarm, so smoke control starts automatically in a fire.
Send us drawings, a BOQ or a short brief. Our engineers will visit site and return a technical and commercial offer.
