When that happens, we especially appreciate that Morten Vinther and his colleagues from Grundfos are very concerned about preventing and solving our problem. We have acknowledged that, by giving them free access to the technical room, and Grundfos takes advantage of that by for instance using the building for testing new, technological advances”, Christian L. Kallesøe tells. Constructive collaboration As building owner, Aarhus Municipality has, during the construction of Dokk1, focused strongly on sustainability, and exceptionally high demands were made for the building’s energy consumption. “The pumps had to contribute to minimising the energy consumption, and that involved amongst others that they had to be frequency controlled. Grundfos was naturally able to meet all the demands, and thanks to a great and constructive collaboration, we have delivered installations of high quality. Both Brøndum A/S as entrepreneur and Aarhus Municipality as building owner are fully satisfied with what Grundfos has delivered – both regarding products, service and response time”, says Christian L. Kallesøe. The project manager’s experience correlates well with how Morten Vinther defines his own role. Even though his business card says Sales Engineer, he sees his work as far from completed when the pumps have been sold. “It is also me who shows up if problems occur in the installations the pumps are part of. The customers know they can call for help anytime, and many of them make use of that”, he says.
