–
Equipment and components
•
Integrated solutions for the total building
–
Net energy use, infrastructure, and operating cost
total building HVAC and hot water.
•
New Construction – Pipe uses less space
•
Renovation/Remodel/Repurpose
Energy Efficient
•
Highest Building efficiency
•
Lowest BTU transport cost
–
Water uses less kW to move Btu’s in the building
–
Water maintains efficiency versus outdoor temperature
•
Variable flow & temperature matched to demand
•
Integrated Design Process
–
Energy sharing / HVAC and Hot Water
–
Whole building approach by design team
•
Path to Net Zero: Use less energy, store more, reclaim,
integrate, and operate the system for profit
IEER is a test procedure
•
In a lab – not your building – integrated and weighted as prescribed
•
Cooling test only includes 2% at 95F and 40% RH as worst case. 98% of rating is
from 65-81.5⁰F outdoor air temperature.
•
Heating test not lower than 16F / Air flow varied down to 25%
•
Lab refrigerant pipe – not field Length, flat no lift to the roof
•
Cooling temperature room set point at 80°F with 50% relative humidity
–
People generate moisture to be removed… Who is happy at 80F?
•
Performance measured after lab maintained conditions for an hour
–
Allows refrigerant circuit to balance - this does not happen in your building
IEER is a test – an equipment comparison – It must be de-rated when applied
When the compressor becomes the system PUMP it gives up efficiency – up to 30%
plus operation outside test conditions requires additional de-rates…
Commercial Buildings are unique
Design for the life of the building with Water
•
Reduce Installed Cost
•
Lowest Operating Cost
•
Retained Value
•
Building Resale Value
The utility bill is a relevant operating cost
hydronic components are for the life of the building
Adaptable, replaceable, upgradeable
Choice in first cost and
all the budgets
!
Budget + Return on Investment
(
reduced equipment life destroys ROI)
For the Life of the Building
•
Flexible – 4, 2, and 1-pipe designs
•
Adaptable to technology
–
forward and backward compatibility
•
Upgradeable at any time
•
Versatile – easy to change
Once built our Hydronic Mechanical Infrastructure
will support and preserve your investment in
efficiency, comfort and productivity.

Water: The Natural Choice
Hydronic comfort systems offer safe, reliable, and sustainable solutions for maintaining building efficiency and increasing comfort levels. These systems use water as a natural choice, reducing refrigerant content and improving energy efficiency. They provide multiple comfort options, ensure productivity, and enhance indoor air quality while promoting sustainability for the life of the building. With long-term solutions and energy-efficient designs, hydronic systems offer a holistic approach to building management, aiming for net-zero energy use. Water truly is the natural choice for efficient and sustainable building solutions.
