HVAC SYSTEMHVAC(heating,ventilation, andair conditioning) is the technology of indoor and vehicular environmental comfort. HVAC system design is a sub discipline ofmechanical engineering, based on the principles ofthermodynamics,fluid mechanics, andheat transfer.The hospital building is 100% air conditioned ."Mechanical" or "forced" ventilation is provided by anair handlerand used to controlindoor air quality. Excesshumidity, odors, and contaminants can often be controlled via dilution or replacement with outside air.

WATER CONSERVATIONThe architect has taken two major steps for the conservation of water. He has provided sensor traps and a rainwater harvesting and percolation pit.These sensor taps have been installed everywhere. For example, a regular tap uses about 1.5 litres of water for a handwash. These specific taps use about 0.6 litres for a handwash, thus saving about 0.9 litres.The water harvesting and percolation pit is about 30m deep under the ground. The water is collected here and distributed through pipes for other services. The pit cannot be seen on the site since it is part of the landscaping. One of the pipes, however can be seen behind the cafetria.

FIRE SAFETYAll the corridors and rooms have been fitted with smoke detectors, fire alarms and sprinklers.The smoke detectors detect the fire and send a signal to the main fire alarm panel which has been fitted in the recption. This main panel has 20 units., each unit represents a zone. These zones have smaller alarm panels which activate the sprinklers.There are fire extinguishers and fire staircases have been built every 30m.

WASTE DISPOSAL SYSTEMThe waste management has been outsourced to different agencies and these agencies take the waste and incarnate it far away from the hospital.SOLAR WATER HEATERThere are solar panels on the terrace which heat all the water that is being supplied.

GENERATORSThere are two generators that have been provided in the hospital. One is a diesel generator and the other one is a UPS backup. The UPS backup is only for the OT's and ICU's since there needs to be power in those two rooms all the time because they have life saving equipment.

DUMBWAITER SYSTEMDumbwaitersare small freightelevators(orlifts) intended to carry objects rather than people. Dumbwaiters found within modern structures, including both commercial, public and private buildings, are often connected between multiple floors.There are two dumbwaiters used. One is used to carry the sterile instruments and linen to the OT's and the other dumbwaiter carries the soiled materials back to the laundry room.
