Our Unique Building Science Approach To Portable Classroom Energy Savings and Improved Air Quality:

  1. Reduce HVAC Energy Usage by 20-85%
  2. Preserve Buildings From Moisture Damage
  3. Eliminate Occupant Health Complaints
  4. Improve Student and Teacher Comfort
  5. Eliminate Mold and Odor Issues

Incredibly, in most cases, our retrofits* deliver all of the above and completely pay for themselves in less than 18 months through reduced energy consumption**.

We are building scientists. We study buildings that perform poorly, learn why they fail, and we develop technology to make such buildings safe, comfortable, long lived and economical to operate. We especially enjoy optimizing portable classrooms.

Our Integrated Building Science Technology Retrofit Package for Portable Classrooms*** includes:

bulletCO2 Controlled Ventilation to ASHRAE Standards
bulletHigh Arrestance Ventilation Air Filtration
bulletImproved Humidity Control Through Dynamic Heat Ratio Management
bulletBuilding Pressurization
bulletBuilding Envelope Tightening
bulletExhaust Management
bulletDuct Leakage Management

* In most cases, our retrofits may be integrated directly with existing buildings and HVAC systems without the need for replacement of equipment or other capital improvements. As a result, very often serious problem buildings may have their useful lives renewed at no cost at all as energy cost reduction will pay for the retrofits within a remarkably short time.

** Our comprehensive evaluation testing can accurately predict energy savings on an annual and monthly basis as well as reveal the return on investment ROI. The evidence is that it is not uncommon for the annual return on investment to be 12 months or less. Can you suggest a better investment, especially in times of tight school funding?

*** Our recent testing has shown that brand new portable classrooms may be so poorly set up that energy reductions of 20% to 85% are usual. Everyone assumes that they are right, but testing shows that often they are not. For new portables, we offer comprehensive commissioning services that will pay for themselves in a remarkably short time and continue to deliver steady energy savings over the building's extended life.
