WELLINGTON ZOO RESTS EASY
Chimpanzees are most comfortable in temperatures around 25°C, when the temperature falls below that they can become sluggish.
HotChilly worked out how to heat monkey bodies to a constant year-round temperature, without necessarily heating the physical environment, which can encourage bacteria growth, disease spread and smell. Monkeys are very inquisitive and basically vandals – so another challenge was designing anti-burn radiant heaters, fitted with especially robust brackets.
HotChilly have become preferred contractors on a lot of our projects because they allow us to rest easy knowing we don't have to worry about the mechanical services aspect, as they will have it in hand, and deal with any problems without looking for cost increases.
