- 11. Core Principles Philosophy has always been to design & engineer value added products with the following inherent features. Value Airtight integrity Structural integrity Energy efficiency / Consumption Performance Indoor Air Quality Safety Reliability / Sustainability
- 12. Green philosophy… Before it was fashionable !
- 14. Energy and the Built Environment 39% of all energy consumed by buildings 40% - 60% of a buildings energy is consumed by the HVAC System 8 quadrillion BTU of energy Per / year U.S.A
- 15. Impact Perspective Ductwork - Energy “ Reducing duct leakage = significant positive impact on energy consumption and electricity demand” “ In California, eliminating duct leakage in half of all existing large commercial buildings could save energy consumption equivalent to about 170,000 typical California houses…” Populations: California 35 Million / Australia 22 Million Source: Public Interest Energy Research Program, State of CA CEC- 500- 2005-163 FS “Duct leakage: If you can measure it, you can cut it”

- 23. DUCTWORK: “THE LUNGS OF A BUILDING”
- 24. United States EPA (I.A.Q.) Studies I.A.Q. is a major concern to businesses, building managers & tenants. A Report to Congress concluded that “ improved I.A.Q. can result in higher productivity and fewer lost work days as it costs the nation tens of billions of dollars each year in lost productivity and medical care.” Indoor air pollution is ranked as an “important environmental health problem.”
