Hi,
I live in a small town near tirupur, tamilnadu.
I am planning to start ENT clinic in a prominent location but could get only a semi underground Hall.
The Hall has no windows and the consultation room is planned at the rear end of the Hall by partitioning. Room dimension will be 15×20 feet.
Planning a split ac which will be the only ventilating device, 2 ton may be required I think.
The problem is outdoor unit can be kept outside the entrance and copper tubing has to run all along the entire length of the Hall to reach outside say some 45 feet.
I know it will affect cooling but is there any means, methods to minimise heat dissipation?
Your suggestions will be valuable.

Double Foam wrap the copper pipes and tape them with ac insulation tape.
