The Challenge

Year-round temperature control without disturbing the set

Like most TV and movie sets, this one for “New Amsterdam” was set up in a big open warehouse with few ways to heat or cool the space. The production team needed a fast, reliable way to control the temperature in summer and winter, but without getting in the way or creating noise that would be picked up during recording.

The Solution

A fast, flexible system, adapted to the season

Our team of technical experts built a chiller and air handler system that would kick into action at lightning speed to get the space to its target temperature – and switched on and off again between each shoot. Two air handlers were up on the balcony, out of the way, while the third was on wheels and could be moved to wherever it was needed.
