Vertical HVAC Equipment Conserves Scuba Shop Space
SYRACUSE, N.Y. - Aquatic World co-owners, Dan Quackenbush and Lloyd Darrohn reached a lifelong goal last year when they became the only central New York state scuba diving store with an indoor training pool.
However, that goal was difficult from an installation standpoint. A 22-foot by 32-foot pool needed to be squeezed into a small vacant space behind the 3,000-square-foot store in a six-store strip center located here. A solution was designed by mechanical engineer Steven Brandt, P.E., president of manufacturers representative D.F. Brandt Inc. (Kirkville, N.Y.), architect Peter Crissey, A.I.A., Crissey Architectural Group (Syracuse, N.Y.), and general contractor P&P Enterprises (Syracuse, N.Y.).
