"In LEED v2.2, the Indoor Environmental Quality Credit 7.1, Thermal Comfort - Design, requires that buildings comply with ASHRAE Standard 55-2004, for thermal comfort standards. Although engineers are designing for thermal comfort, only about 65% of LEED certified buildings achieve this credit. Many engineers are unsure of how to show the documentation to achieve this credit."

"The New York Times is committed to bringing the viewer all of the quality news and information from around the world either in print or online. The building 1.6 million square feet and spans 856 feet into the sky."

"By design, science laboratories are "energy hogs." They use once-through air and prohibit recirculation of exhaust. It is estimated that on average, 50% of the energy used in operating a laboratory is attributed to the ventilation air - filtering, heating, cooling and dehumidifying large amounts of 100% outside air, then moving this conditioned make-up air through the lab and exhausting it."

"For reasons of safety and health, not to mention litigation, consulting and facility engineers long have insisted on independent performance verification for fans and blowers used in general HVAC, as well as more-critical applications."

A.D.E. Systems, Inc. is pleased to announce that Titus has partnered up with Armstrong World Industries, Inc., by offering a line of linear diffusers designed specifically for the Armstrong TechZone Ceilings. The Titus Modulinear TZ series is a high-performance, high-quality slot diffuser. The TZ series is designed to easily integrate into the Armstrong's TechZone ceiling grid system providing a customized and aesthetically pleasing look with standard components.

"Both vortex / tangential and coalescing air separators are efficient at reducing the amount of entrained air in hydronic heating and cooling systems. However, due to the design, coalescing style air separators, such as Armstrong's DAS series, are more effective at removing entrained air in variable speed HVAC systems. The reduced system velocity during low load periods actually enhances the performance of the coalescing style air separator, allowing it remove more air and dirt."

"You have probably noticed that there are several camps out there when it comes to centrifugal pump applications involving variable frequency drives (VFDs). One group believes that every pump should have one, while another thinks that they should be banned altogether. And, of course, there is the middle ground that says it depends upon the pump and application."

Titus is pleased to announce the new DynaFuserTM auto changeover diffuser.
