COMMERCIAL-PHOENIX,AZ

The Challenge: In August pf 2016, a chain of U-Hual conditioned storage facility were looking to reduce the kW consumption and maximize the efficiency of their HVAC loading.

The Solution: For this job, 78° Thermalguard mats were selected and placed over the ceiling tiles of the retail space for this Conditioned Storage Facility in Phoenix, AZ. The project involved simply placing the Thermalguard mats over the top of the existing ceiling tiles for approximate 70% coverage of the ceiling areas after accounting for lights and other devices.

The Results: Over the course of the year, the facilities kW savings increased dramatically. In fact, Thermalguard yielded 36% energy savings, and allowed the facility to shift its peak-load HVAC usage. While the HVAC load decreased, the overall comfort levels increased significantly. With a simple payback of 1.8 years, this commercial job was a massive success.
