SCOPE OF SERVICE
To help this client renovate a three-story facility for retail use, Heritage provided the single-source solution required to install a new mechanical HVAC system, including sheet metal ductwork, hydronic piping, pumps, fans, and other devices.
In addition to properly insulating the facility, Heritage enabled more energy-efficient operation by putting in a leading-edge building management system, along with such equipment as variable frequency drives and split-system air conditioning units. The use of radiant heat and chilled beams further reduces energy consumption.
