Harrah’s Horseshoe Casino

Project Description

The Hill Group was selected as the HVAC contractor for this new 420,000 square foot casino built on six floating barges. The five levels include 174,000 square feet of gaming areas, a 3,000 seat theater, dining spaces, kitchens and various support areas.

The project includes 32 VAV air handling units of which 14 incorporate heat recovery wheels. Five 750 ton centrifugal water chillers located in the barge hull utilize lake water as the condensing medium.

The circulating fluids are a 30% solution of ethylene glycol. A DDC temperature control system is used.
