COMMERCIAL HVAC
The ever-changing environment of commercial construction
offers exciting breakthroughs in technology and materials,
but it is not without some heartburn. Today, owners,
architects, and contractors face many challenges in the
design and construction of their projects. Challenges
such as usable space, indoor air quality, energy effi ciency,
maintenance costs, building longevity, and the LEED
®
program all come to the forefront of the design process.
When considering the solutions to these challenges, the
type of HVAC system chosen directly affects each one.
USABLE SPACE
It has been said that the reason real estate grows in value
is because no one is making any more. As cities continue
to grow and spread out, the
value of maximizing usable space
becomes increasingly important.
When selecting an HVAC system,
you positively or negatively
impact the usable space on a
project. As an example, VAV
(Variable Air Volume) systems
utilize complicated ductwork
systems along with extensive
equipment rooms to deliver conditioned air into the
building space. Additionally, VAV duct systems many
times require more ceiling height which increases
fl oor-to-fl oor space thus increasing building costs.
By comparison, ClimateMaster Water-Source and
Geothermal Heat Pump systems require little to no
equipment room space and use a very simple, compact,
and independent ductwork system.
INDOOR AIR QUALITY
As important as the actual temperature of a building space
is, the quality of air within that space is equally important.
The American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air
Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) has implemented
Standard 62, which requires signifi cantly higher amounts of
fresh outdoor air for buildings. The challenge now becomes
how to properly introduce, condition, and deliver this fresh
air into the building space. Traditional options like two- and
four-pipe Fan Coil systems must be up-sized signifi cantly to
handle the additional conditioning load. This means larger,
more expensive units, larger, more expensive piping, and
larger more expensive boilers and chillers. In comparison,
ClimateMaster systems offer a variety of options that can
actually lower the overall system size, introduce 100%
outdoor air, and lower system usage cost.
ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Today’s offi ces equipped with computers, copiers and
other offi ce tools can dramatically affect the heating and
cooling load of a given space. When considering heating
and cooling loads, rising energy costs demand an HVAC
system that is effi cient while building designs require a
system that is also fl exible. ClimateMaster has a solution
for practically any application, and does so with some
of most energy effi cient HVAC systems available on the
market today. In fact, all of ClimateMaster’s products
either meet or exceed the new federal mandated
effi ciency minimums.
MAINTENANCE COSTS
Complex systems such as two- and four-pipe fan coils
and VAV systems require advanced maintenance and the
trained personnel to perform it. Large equipment rooms
fi lled with chillers, air handlers, or large-scale boilers
require personnel for monitoring and maintenance,
which consume building space and leasing profi ts. The
effect to the bottom line becomes signifi cant when
considering the potential of a complete system failure
along with costly parts and equipment replacement.
However, Water-Source and Geothermal Heat Pumps
require very little monitoring and maintenance - aside
from routine fi lter changes. With factory installed DDC
controls, the entire building can be accessed via any
web-enabled computer for monitoring and set point
control. No muss, no fuss, no worries.
BUILDING LONGEVITY
New innovations offer longer life expectancies for today’s
buildings. You should expect the same from the HVAC
systems being placed inside these buildings. However,
when it comes to longevity, not all systems are created
equal. Complex chillers and air handling systems often
have a large number of moving parts that will wear
out over time. Water-Source and Geothermal Heat
Pumps offer the advantage of very few moving parts.
Fewer moving parts lower the
occurrence of parts replacement
and extend equipment life.
This simplicity of design allows
ClimateMaster systems to
provide average life spans of 20
years or more. In fact, there are
a number of ClimateMaster units
that are still performing after 50
years - providing the continual
comfort our customers have
come to expect.
