Stack effect isn’t just an HVAC nuisance – it’s a physics issue that shapes every decision in high-rise residential conversions.

ES NEWS Guest columnist Trevor Vick examines how the lack of reliable, continuous records is hindering building decarbonization efforts and compliance with emerging performance standards.

Davis-Houk Mechanical, a union shop rooted in Coles County, has landed the full design-build contract for the retailer’s new three-building Store Support Center, now under construction and slated for completion by 2028.

In 1960, a Phoenix factory used 140 tons of refrigeration to show how all-electric systems could make sense in the right commercial application. 

Newly deployed technology rethinks how commercial air conditioning systems handle humidity — and uses novel materials to develop advanced heat pump systems that dehumidify, cool or heat air. 

Daikin has redesigned the VRV Emerion systems to reduce installation and commissioning times, expand heating and cooling operations, improve energy savings, simplify maintenance, and expand monitoring capabilities.

Thanks to a push from manufacturers and utility companies, heat pump technology gained traction in the ‘50s, ultimately re-shaping the HVAC industry. 

“We are thrilled to report on the success of our patented liquid desiccant HVAC solution; it is ideal for commercial spaces that require cool, fresh, and dehumidified air,” said Aaron Meles, vice president of product at Mojave Energy Systems.

The global commercial HVAC market is set to grow rapidly, reaching $136.45 billion by 2031, driven by rising construction projects, stricter energy regulations, and increasing demand for smart, climate-friendly systems amid unpredictable weather patterns.

Mojave Energy Systems announced that it has been granted its seventh patent covering the technology for its groundbreaking commercial liquid desiccant air conditioning system.
