HVAC Load Reduction Solution

For colleges and universities looking to achieve sustainability goals, improve learning outcomes, and save money, enVerid’s HVAC Load Reduction® (HLR) products deliver award-winning air cleaning using Sorbent Ventilation Technology® that reduces the energy and carbon intensity of HVAC systems, improves indoor air quality, and lowers the cost of new HVAC equipment.

Ideally suited for buildings installing new HVAC equipment or seeking to make existing central heating and cooling plants or distributed HVAC systems more efficient, enVerid’s HLR products clean the air in buildings so that indoor air can be safely recirculated and outside air requirements can be reduced using ASHRAE’s performance-based Indoor Air Quality Procedure (IAQP).

By permanently reducing load on HVAC systems, HLR® modules lower the energy and carbon intensity of HVAC systems, which helps achieve sustainability goals while saving money and extending equipment life. The reduction of required outside air also decreases the cost of installing new HVAC equipment by allowing for HVAC system downsizing.

Deploying Sorbent Ventilation Technology (SVT®) is also a great way to earn up to 17 LEED points for existing buildings, 12 LEED points for new construction projects, and up to 2 preconditions, 3 optimization points and 3 points under an Alternative Adherence Path in the WELL Air concept category.

SVT improves indoor air quality by removing CO2 and contaminants generated by building materials, furniture, and classroom and cleaning supplies from indoor air, and by reducing the intake of outside air polluted by exhaust from highways and airports, smoke from industrial parks and wildfires, pollen, and ozone.

Compared to other energy saving sustainability initiatives that increase project first costs and have long payback periods, enVerid’s HLR products allow for the use of ASHRAE’s IAQP to deliver both first cost savings from downsizing new HVAC equipment and ongoing energy savings by permanently reducing load on HVAC systems.

When combined with high-efficiency MERV filters or local HEPA filters, HLR modules can be used to deliver safe indoor air quality for COVID-19 mitigation with less outside air, which is less energy and carbon intensive than ventilation-only approaches to mitigate the airborne transmission of viruses.
