Hospital HVAC contractor in Saudi Arabia
Heating, ventilation and air conditioning for clinical spaces, where temperature, humidity, air pressure and filtration are part of the clinical environment, installed and balanced to the specified conditions.
Why hospital HVAC is different
Hospital HVAC does more than keep a building comfortable. It controls the clinical environment: temperature and humidity within the limits that equipment and procedures need, air changes that dilute contamination, filtration that removes particles, and the pressure relationship between rooms so that air flows from cleaner areas towards less clean ones. Operating rooms are typically supplied with filtered air under positive pressure, isolation rooms are held at negative pressure so contaminated air does not escape, and imaging rooms such as MRI and CT need tight temperature and humidity control for the equipment. Ducts that cross a shielded wall must do so without breaking the shield. EGC installs HVAC systems for healthcare projects, coordinating duct routes, diffusers and controls with the ceilings, shielding and other services, and balancing and testing the system to the specified conditions before handover.
HVAC is part of healthcare MEP and is coordinated with medical gas, fire protection and the shielding in imaging rooms.

What the air has to do, by room
| Room | What the HVAC has to achieve |
|---|---|
| Operating rooms | Filtered supply air, positive pressure and controlled temperature and humidity |
| Isolation rooms | Negative pressure so contaminated air does not leave the room |
| Imaging rooms (MRI, CT, PET-CT) | Stable temperature and humidity for the equipment, with ducts crossing the shield correctly |
| Wards and patient rooms | Comfort, ventilation and the air changes needed for infection control |
How we deliver it
Agree conditions and routes
We take the design conditions and agree duct routes with the other trades.
Install
Ductwork, equipment and controls are installed to the design.
Test and balance
Airflows and pressures are tested and balanced room by room.
Commission and hand over
The system is commissioned and records handed over.
