Testing: Thorough testing of the installed unit to ensure proper functionality and cooling performance. Documentation: Maintaining records of the installation process, warranty information, and user manuals. 4. Stakeholders: Office Manager: Responsible for overseeing the project and budget. Employees: Beneficiaries of the improved office environment. Installation Technician: Responsible for the professional installation of the air conditioner. Samsung (or Authorized Dealer): Provides the air conditioning unit and warranty support. 5. Pre-Conditions: The office space is suitable for air conditioner installation (e.g., appropriate wall space, access for outdoor unit placement, adequate electrical supply). Necessary approvals have been obtained (if required). The chosen Samsung non-inverter air conditioner unit has been purchased and is available for installation. 6. Installation Steps (Typical): Site Survey: The technician assesses the office space and determines the optimal location for the indoor and outdoor units. Indoor Unit Installation: The indoor unit is mounted securely on the wall, ensuring proper alignment and drainage. Outdoor Unit Installation: The outdoor unit is placed on a stable surface or mounted on a wall, considering ventilation and noise levels. Refrigerant Line Connection: Refrigerant lines are carefully connected between the indoor and outdoor units, ensuring leak-free connections. Electrical Wiring: Electrical wiring is completed, adhering to local electrical codes and safety regulations. Drainage Connection: A drainage system is installed to effectively drain condensation from the indoor unit. System Evacuation: The system is evacuated to remove moisture and non-condensable gases. Refrigerant Charging: The system is charged with the correct amount of refrigerant. Testing and Commissioning: The air conditioner is tested to verify proper operation, cooling performance, and airflow. User Training: The office manager (or designated personnel) is briefed on the operation and maintenance of the air conditioner. 7. Post-Conditions: The Samsung non-inverter air conditioner is fully functional and providing effective cooling to the office space. Employees experience improved comfort and productivity.

Solution: Explore alternative locations or consider a different air conditioner model. Problem: Leak in refrigerant lines. Solution: The technician identifies and repairs the leak, evacuates the system, and recharges with refrigerant. 9. Expected Benefits: Improved Comfort: Consistent and comfortable temperature in the office. Increased Productivity: Employees are less distracted by heat and can focus better on their work. Enhanced Well-being: A comfortable environment contributes to employee well-being and reduces heat-related stress. 10. Success Measurement: Consistent and comfortable office temperature during hot weather. Positive feedback from employees regarding the office environment. Minimal or no issues with the air conditioning unit. 11. Assumptions: The office space is adequately insulated. The air conditioner is appropriately sized for the office space. Regular maintenance will be performed to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
