The Challenge: Navigating Tight Spaces For A Seamless Installation

The Omni Hotel’s previous generator had suffered significant corrosion over time, with rust compromising its functionality. The hotel needed a reliable replacement, and we recommended a Gillette known for its durability and performance.

The installation site presented unique challenges. The generator was located on a slope near the hotel entrance. The genset location was between trees with no easy access point.
The only available path for the crane was a narrow sidewalk. Precise maneuvering was key for the crane operator to ensure safe and effective positioning.

Expert Coordination by Chuck and Edwin

Our technicians, Chuck and Edwin, took charge of this complex operation. Their extensive experience and attention to detail were crucial in planning and executing the installation. They worked closely with the crane operator, carefully guiding the crane as it backed up into the tight space. Despite the limited room to maneuver, the team successfully positioned the crane, ensuring it was securely in place.

Seamless Execution: From Rusted Out to Refreshed

Once the crane was in position, it was time to replace the generator. The old, corroded CAT was carefully picked out of the tight spot. Now it was time to put the Gillette and move it into position. Chuck, Edwin, and the crane operator worked in perfect sync, executing the swap with precision. The new generator was smoothly lowered, fitting perfectly into the tight spot.

A Job Well Done: Ensuring Reliable Power for the Omni Hotel

The successful installation of the Gillette Generator at the Omni Hotel is a testament to our team’s skill and professionalism. Despite the challenging conditions, the team ensured that the project was completed with detail and professionalism. They provided the hotel with a reliable power solution that will serve them well for years to come.
