High Efficiency Environmental Control
The photograph shows the new air handling ductwork including the air return lines and the air discharge lines. A high efficiency heat pump was selected as the most efficient means of heating and cooling. Equilibar’s home in the mountain region of Western North Carolina is blessed with a temperate climate that allows today’s modern high efficiency heat pump technology to provide 100% of the cooling and heating needs. In the photograph you can see the beginnings of the lattice work for the drop ceiling. The lowered ceiling height and the high R value insulation that will be applied on top both aid in the overall building efficiency. The ceiling height will be 11 feet 8 inches to maintain an open feel which will improve the work environment while providing a dramatic energy efficiency gain over the previous 16 to 22 foot sloped roof. Modern computer based thermostat controls will automatically modulate the temperature during non-working hours for further efficiency and include the ability to program a gentle warm up or cool down cycle at the beginning and end of the work week.
