BIM, creative pre-fabrication, and even some on-site disassembly/reassembly teamed up with excellent design coordination and communication at the Harry S. Truman Presidential Library & Museum. As a result, the new central chilled water plant and dehumidification system will preserve priceless collections for the future.
Specified Air Solutions (SAS) recently announced the formation of two new divisions, Dehumidified Air Solutions (DAS) and Dehumidified Air Services (DASV).
For the past 20 years, the Wilkes County Courthouse in Wilkesboro, NC, has depended on its chiller system. The courthouse had been reliably cooled with a Daikin ALS170A screw compressor chiller, but the unit was beginning to show signs of aging.
The Atlantic Club, a health club in Red Bank, NJ, faced the decision of paying ongoing maintenance costs for an aging 15-year-old indoor pool dehumidifier or prematurely replacing it with newer HVAC technology.
Energy recovery, sensors, and smart deployment of other options can let a system clear the psychrometric hurdle of designing for high outdoor air requirement and high moisture levels.
Dedicated outdoor air systems (DOAS) have been available for over 20 years, with the primary benefit being the ability to decouple outdoor air tempering from conditioned space thermal loads that can be handled by separate, secondary systems.
The Forest Hills Public Schools Community and Aquatic Center in Forest Hills, MI, needed to replace two aging 24-ton dehumidifiers for its 12,000-sq-ft natatorium.
Revitalizing turn-of-the-century infrastructure means finding a way to dehumidify interiors successfully. Before you move on to weighing DOAS and other techniques, understand the built-in relationship between these structures and water.
