PROJECT SCOPE
Wiegmann Associates installed an HVAC design solution that meets the client’s goal of a mechanical system that provides tenants with a comfortable living space while balancing first-cost with energy-saving measures. The system features a central plant with a cooling tower, pumps and boilers, which distribute condenser water to water-source heat pumps to serve the 346 residential apartments, 20,969-square-feet of retail space on the ground level and amenity spaces with optimal comfort and energy efficiency.
PROJECT CHALLENGE/SOLUTION
