After 10 Years, Energy Recovery Still Delivers For Atlanta Building
Energy cost savings, plenty of fresh air, really simple maintenance, solid-gold reliability - these are the actual benefits of an energy recovery system installed 10 years ago in an Atlanta office building, according to the equipment operator. Although the energy recovery system was originally designed to improve indoor air quality, the unit has proved that it can do much more by decreasing humidity, dramatically reducing the building's cooling energy consumption, and running reliably, day after day, year after year.
"To be honest, as simple and basic as this equipment is, I don't see why it couldn't last 20 or 25 years," said David Walker, the office building's technical services manager.
