Case Study: An Indoor/Outdoor Challenge In Luxury
The Challenge
A 60-meter boat from the CRN shipyard in Ancona, Italy,
the superyacht Blue Eyes is an impressive combination of
beautiful design, classic interiors and architectural surprises.

yacht’s overall HVAC system. Nowhere is Condaria’s custom
engineering better showcased than in the indoor/outdoor
Beach Lounge. An array of highly efficient, high-velocity
blowers are precisely placed to keep the lounge cool without
creating unpleasant air blasts that would annoy the guests.

The biggest architectural surprise is her innovative signaturefeature: An indoor/outdoor Beach Lounge on the aft deck.
Where most yachts would house a garage, Blue Eyes puts
the space to use as an open-air lounge that extends to thesea. At night, it also serves as a romantic dance floor on thewater.

With Condaria’s specially designed installation of a robust
heating and air conditioning system, guests are kept
comfortable by day and by night. Despite having a wall open
to the sea, guests can relax and enjoy this elegant indoor/
outdoor feature, regardless of the temperature.

The builders knew this beautiful space would seldom beenjoyed if outdoor temperatures drove guests back inside.
Their solution? Find a company that could air condition it.

The Result

The Solution
CRN worked with Condaria by Dometic Group to develop acustom solution for this unique, indoor/outdoor area.
To keep guests comfortable onboard, Condaria suppliednearly 1.2M BTUs of cooling and heating power in the

Voyaging on superyacht Blue Eyes is an exciting andluxurious experience that demands being surrounded byideal environmental conditions, and ideal environmental
conditions require an ample and reliable HVAC system.
The Condaria HVAC system achieved this goal, and brought
pleasing temperatures to a unique area of the superyachtthat is open to the sky and the sea.

Case Studies

Case Study: Marine Air Conditioning That Conquers Desert Heat
The Challenge
When Steve Creamer began building Crystal Angel II, acustomized 85 ft. (26 m) tri-deck motor yacht that would cruise
the vast waters of Lake Powell in the high desert region ofPage, Arizona, his primary concern was the effectivenessof her air conditioning system. Often entertaining family andfriends aboard his yacht, Creamer knows the importance thata comfortable climate makes to the enjoyment of the voyage.
Cruising in an area where temperatures often reach morethan 100°F/38°C, the air conditioning system had to be
exceptional. In fact, Steve Creamer’s number one stipulation
for the build was that this luxury yacht be air conditioned
properly so it would stay cool in the desert heat. To
accomplish this goal, he turned to Dometic Marine.

the proper load requirements, Dometic Marine worked withthe boat builder to test several variations of the air conditioning
system using various plenums and air flow configurations to
optimize performance and also reduce noise.

The Result
The resulting installation was successful. Crystal Angel IIwent into the water in June 2011, and the air conditioning
system is keeping guests cool and comfortable while they
enjoy the breathtaking desert terrain of Lake Powell.

The Solution“Our representative and the team at Dometic have been
extremely supportive of our project through both startup andafter-support — from the early conceptual design, throughdetail design with the interior designer — to create a unique
air distribution system which integrates the distribution andreturn systems into the ceiling beam system,” said Creamer.

To meet his requirements, Dometic Marine installed a 360,000
BTU Marine Air modular chilled water system that was
specially designed to tame the heat of the region and address
the yacht’s unique characteristics. In addition to determining“Having had a Dometic system on the Crystal Angel I for
seventeen years, I knew the quality of Dometic’s systems.
The quality of the people and the support of the company
have been very impressive," he said.

Case Studies

Case Study: The Luxury of a Perfect Fit
The Challenge
Custom yachts often demand custom systems. When it
comes to chillers, required capacity and available space inthe engine room don’t always coincide. The challenge is tofind an HVAC manufacturer that has both a broad variety ofchillers to fit a variety of spaces and the capability to provide
custom engineering when required.

The Solution
The naval architects at Sunseeker International, a global
leader in the design and building of luxury motor yachts,
appreciate working with the experienced HVAC engineers
at Dometic Marine. With a broad range of product shapes,
sizes, and capacities to choose from, the right product canoften be ordered straight from the catalog. And for morechallenging applications, they can rely on custom-built
chillers to meet their needs. The naval architects are free tofocus on yacht design instead of HVAC challenges.
Dometic Marine’s expert engineers work with Sunseeker’s
naval architects to recommend the system capacity
necessary for ample onboard comfort. The engineers thenarrange the multi-stage chiller and its frame to fit into thespace available in the engine room, redesigning elements if
necessary to meet height and width specifications.
Bespoke chiller frames can even be designed to hold otherengine-room equipment to better utilize limited overall space.
For the Sunseeker Predator 84, Dometic Marine provided
a two-stage Marine Air MCW Low-Profile chiller with total
capacity of 120,000 BTUs (10 tons). The low-profile design
fits into height-restrictive spaces. Its compact footprint allows
flexibility in space usage and layouts.
Also included with the Predator 84’s chiller system is a Digital
Diagnostic Controller that monitors and protects the systemthrough the use of sensors, pressure switches, timers, andfreeze controls, all programmed to display on an LED panel
for immediate diagnosis.

The Result
Naval architects can focus on boat design instead of HVAC
design, which has earned Dometic Marine the prestigious
status of “Sunseeker Approved Supplier”.
