New & Improved Technologies
High Performance Circulator Pump
High Performance Circulator Pump
High Performance Circulator Pump
- This technology saves pump energy by incrementally adjusting a pump's flow speed to a building's changing demands.
- It also generates useful data by tracking temperature, flow rate, and energy use.

High Performance Circulator Pump
- High efficiency HVAC units are a new class of rooftop unit (RTU) that can reduce building energy needs by half without reducing HVAC effectiveness. Blowing conditioned air through central shafts and ceiling spaces, the new technology incorporates variable speed controls on the refrigerant compressor, valves, and fans to efficiently heat or cool designated spaces as desired.
- The high efficiency HVAC RTUs capture and reuse heat, cold, and humidity from a building’s exhaust air and utilize waste heat from the compressors to reheat air that has been purposely over-cooled.
Intelligent Energy Valves for Hydronic Systems
Intelligent Energy Valves for Hydronic Systems
Intelligent Energy Valves for Hydronic Systems
- This technology reduces the power consumed by pumps in hydronic heating and cooling systems by maintaining an optimal temperature difference (Delta-T) between fluid supply and return lines.
Smart Scrubbers for HVAC Load reduction
Intelligent Energy Valves for Hydronic Systems
Intelligent Energy Valves for Hydronic Systems
- This technology reduces the volume of outside air required to maintain indoor air quality (IAQ) by using absorbent materials to selectively remove contaminants from HVAC airflow.
