Scope Of Work

The experts at METCO accomplished the dehumidification process by installing water heating coils in the ductwork and duct transitions, adding open automation system and remediating, retrofitting and re-piping HW and ChW piping. METCO replaced Trane Tracer Summer front end panel with Distech Tridium Niagara’s new open-protocol, front-end automation panel that can control chillers/chw, cw pumps, and boilers/hw pumps. The experts also gauged the perfect trap height and installed condensate drain piping to trap drain properly.

After a thorough site survey, METCO devised a calculated dehumidification strategy by careful planning the action plan. Using high quality, modern replacements from Distech Controls, METCO installed an open-protocol, front-end automation panel that could control both the chillers/chw and cw pumps and boilers/hw pumps. Heating coils were installed in the existing ductwork of AHU for reheating. Following the safety guidelines, the existing ductwork was demolished, and a new supply air duct from fan discharge was installed where the duct enters the floor. To avoid duct sweating, the interstitial plenum in the attic area was completely wrapped up. Lastly, METCO workers expertly insulated the new supply duct by-?.

These upgrades and refurbishmentrefurbishing of the Hall, have enabled the Dallas Historical Society to save up to 703,259 kWh/yr of electricity and $35,034 per annum. With the help Distech BACnet and Niagara newest controls, METCO was able to make this happen. Special care was taken while bringing down the old installations and replacing them with the new ones so that the rich history the Hall carries would remain unadulterated and untouched. The project was handled strategically, and the client’s demands and needs were followed carefully. The automation panel was set up with the help of the controls contractor.
