OTTAWA TALLEST RESIDENTIAL BUILDING – 500KW DIESEL

Claridge Icon is a new condo development by Claridge Homes located in little Italy and currently under construction at 505 Preston Street, Ottawa. The development is scheduled for completion in 2020. Claridge Icon has a total of 320 units. Sizes range from 610 to 2725 square feet. Genrep assembled a Seneca 500KW 600V Diesel Enclosure Unit for their emergency power supply.

The Claridge Icon marks the official Ottawa debut of one of Canada’s most preeminent architectural firms. A geometric, 45-storey tower, this will be the tallest condo building in Ottawa.

Building a residential building, there is always a need for emergency back up power. Knowing that this building will be the “Icon” of Ottawa, the development company did not want to hold back and called in the grandfather of generator companies for generator sales & service, Genrep Ltd.

Genrep originally opened its doors in Ottawa 37 years ago and has now expanded to be a national company with brick and mortar all across Canada. Genrep has a vast national dealer network implemented as well to ensure Canadians get the power they need it.

With 37 years experience, it was obvious to bring Genrep on to this monumental project, the Claridge Icon needed power it can rely on. Genrep assembled a Seneca 500KW 600V 3 Phase Diesel Enclosure Unit to be used in this project.
