  • Boiler room located under parking structure with the stack system running outside the structure in an enclosure

ENERVEX Solution:

  • Demand-Controlled CASV450-2 mechanical draft system serving the boilers
  • Fans located on top of the stack were installed in a closed casing, out of sight at the top of the parking structure for aesthetic reasons
