The company also installed mechanical systems for hospitals and laboratories, where work was carefully coordinated around sensitive environments and stringent operational requirements. Its capabilities include hospital and medical gas systems, laboratory installations, plumbing and HVAC. Power and energy projects draw on its highpressure piping and welding expertise, including work involving steam distribution, power plants and cogeneration. Examples include the combined heat and power building at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre and a natural gas engine facility at Lakeview Water Treatment Plant.
