A state-of-the-art&#44; $190 million&#44; preeminent nano- and biomaterial science research facility calls for highly specialized HVAC equipment. To accommodate stringent temperature and pressure specifications on-time and on-budget&#44; Penn State and engineer WSP Flack + Kurtz tapped HTS New York for a custom-engineered solution for its Nano-Bio Complex in University Park&#44; PA. <br /><br />HTS New York provided Haakon Industries Energy-Recovery Units&#44; designed with high-efficiency Thermotech Enterprises Energy-Recovery Wheels. This equipment saved the client approximately 20 to 30 percent of the full load tonnage and was selected due to its superior ability to recover energy from waste-air streams.<br /><br />The LEED-certified&#44; 350&#44;000-square-foot facility is the single-largest investment in the school’s 150-year history. Thanks to a tailored HVAC solution from HTS New York&#44; the more than 125 faculty and researchers housed inside can now solve the mysteries of science in one of the most energy-efficient and cool environment on the market today.
