'Plant Room' Keeps Systems

Sydney Home
THIS SEVEN-BEDROOM HOME in a highly desirable area of Sydney's eastern
suburbs was completely gutted and then rebuilt using high-end smart home solutions,
including AV, security, lighting, HVAC, shades, a flood prevention system, and even a monitored
fresh air quality system.
High-performance brand names like Savant, Lutron, Sonance, James Loudspeakers, Monitor
Audio, Meridian, Sony, NETGEAR and others dot the huge 16,000-square-foot property.
However, what sets this project apart from others was the dedicated, beautifully outfitted
equipment room, dubbed the " plant room " by the Denote team.
The building of the plant room was a challenge, as Denote completed the layout and design
for every service in the room and combined equipment from seven contractors.
" We needed to know the exact models of the equipment, thermostats and boards so we
could specify their locations, " says Jono Dorset, Denote director. " The room has been designed
to be a functioning showpiece, so symmetry, serviceability and accessibility were all important
considerations. "
For ventilation, the company achieved the correct heat management via
a dedicated AC unit in the room, and all equipment is regularly assessed
with internal probes, infrared thermometers, and integrated room probes.
" By doing this we ensure that all equipment is running at its optimum
temp and longevity of service is achieved, " Dorset says. " We also have a
remotely monitored temperature and humidity sensor which is integrated
into Domotz, this alerts us to any temperature events in the room. "
According to the company, the client is also susceptible to state-sponsored
cyberattacks due to their occupation, which necessitated absolute
security on the network. The company provided a dedicated 1G fiber
network to the home, and the entire network is by Fortinet with fully
licensed, 24/7 active threat detection.
