Making Buildings Work Better for Local Communities

Government facilities face the challenging balance of economic, environmental and social priorities.  Aging infrastructures, rising operating costs, and funding challenges make serving the local community a challenge. We offer experience with innovative, intelligently-funded, sustainable solutions, often without using taxpayer dollars.

Comfort Challenges:

IMPROVED COMFORT GENERATES REVENUE

If you’re operating a complex multi-use facility like a rec center, ice rink, natatorium or other community facility, the quality of customer experience can directly impact revenue.  We have worked with local municipalities to complete self-funding projects to improve recreational facilities’ bottom lines.

RELIABILITY CHALLENGES:

STRETCH TAXPAYER DOLLARS

Unexpected failures and emergency equipment replacement can wreak havoc on a local government budget and cause issues with constituents.  Properly planning and maintaining HVAC assets has been shown to extend equipment life 20-36%.  Our staff of more than 60 service technicians works with community leaders every day to maximize taxpayer benefit.

ENERGY CHALLENGES:

REDUCE OPERATING EXPENSES

HVAC is accounts for nearly 50% of the energy consumed in typical municipal buildings.  If you think that saving energy means big capital investment, think again.  Our team can show you how local municipalities have been saving energy, many without any capital investment, just by operating their building smarter.

PLANNING CHALLENGES:

A LOCAL PARTNER FOR THE LONG HAUL

ESCOs and contractors bang on Government doors with empty promises of big savings and big improvements.  We have been in the local community more than 55 years, and we aren’t going anywhere.  Our solutions extend well beyond HVAC equipment and service to roadway lighting, automated meter reading and project financing.  And we stand behind our promises.

Funding challenges:

FUND YOUR IMPROVEMENTS

To make facility improvements, we know it has to make financial sense.  But it’s not just about how much a project costs.  Many programs are available to help make access to capital and purchasing easier for local communities.  We have a full range of options for project funding and procurement.
