The Chemistry and Life Science Building airflow systems were energy inefficient and becoming less safe: 15 out of 34 fume hoods failed the certification test. This older equipment also lacked basic containment alarms.
In addition to safety concerns, the lab spaces were loud, uncomfortable, and very expensive to operate.
Turnkey retrofit of 39 Chemical Fume Hoods with new VAV controls and Auto Sashes.
Converted 3 Labs from CAV to VAV.
Installation included:
"Our campus customers welcome the fume hoods upgrade. We appreciate how well your team provided service while delivering on-time and on-budget”
