A century-old Tacoma school has been fully electrified and modernized in a $7.8 million upgrade, balancing historic preservation with cutting-edge energy efficiency.
Tarang Patel is setting new standards for high-rise HVAC engineering in the New York and New Jersey region, with published innovations in ventilation and system design recognized across the industry.
VRF technology is gaining momentum due to built-in controls, zoning, and flexible design. With minimal ductwork and integrated heating and cooling, it offers a less intrusive solution for modern buildings. But as Doug Bougher of LG explains, success with VRF starts with proper training and commissioning.
we outline key considerations for selecting and designing traditional VRF and Hybrid VRF (HVRF) systems, explain their differences and highlight best practices for enhancing performance and compliance.
