Words to live by; “In the moment of decision your destiny is formed”. The first time I heard those words I was busy absorbing everything I could from Anthony Robbins at his Date with Destiny seminar in Toronto. Out of all the lessons I have learned in life, you can spin these words anyway you […]
Progress progress progress,
Here are a few pics of progress on the system installed in South Jersey. The heat has been a challenge. We have found significant moisture above the insulation. This is the result of not using a true LOW E ceiling. Just because the insulation applied has a foil backing facing down to the ice surface, […]
I recently completed a solar design for a client located in rural Ontario. By rural I mean not within a city but within an hour of Toronto’s borders. I was completely shocked to discover that this individual is paying 29.8 cents per kWh for electricity delivered to his home in Canada. Canada is a world […]
This creative project took Geothermal Heat Pumps applied a Thermal Energy Storage tank, circulated 1200 gallons of water across 2500 feet of pipe in South New Jersey Summers to eliminate humidity in an ice shed area. We are nearing completion. This project was slated for June 24th. Manufacturer delays took us to the week of […]
One of the global challenges we continue to see is the use of coal and lignite for energy production. We continuously hear how natural gas and or LNG is on the rise and to the rescue but in reality it is impossible to change the prime mover these massive power production plants. We continue to […]
It always surprises me the challenges people have who run facilities and that they are at the mercy of professionals designing their systems. This week we had plans on using an existing pump to circulate our excess heat to a sub-floor warming loop installed in an ice arena. This is pretty typical from a process […]
As active as we can be, Fusion is one of those things that is very permanent when completed and is a process that is part of your system design. One which you take personally to ensure it is completed on time budget and without errors. Most of the time when we arrive on site we […]
This last week I found myself in South Jersey installing a hybrid dehumidification system in a two slab ice arena using geothermal heat pumps and thermal energy storage as my system base. All the project coordination in the world could not help us on this one, as the 8 heat pumps that were supposed to […]
Beginning July 6th, we will be installing a hybrid dehumidification system in an ice arena setting. It is a double slab formation with common area central. We have designed the system to function with 22 tons capacity in each of the ice shed areas. The function has both heating and cooling capabilities with compressors mounted […]
