Project Details

Jade Logic Building Technologies completed a project for the CIGI Campus, a facility which has won numerous architectural awards for its design. The networked hardware in this project included a system located on the client’s local area network and accessible through a dedicated VPN. The building utilizes both in-floor and ceiling radiant slab heating, in addition to ceiling slab cooling. A heat recovery chiller is utilized in the shoulder seasons and winter months.

This project presented several challenges, which were resolved through the implementation of the Reliable Controls MACH-System. The operation of the in-ceiling, chilled water systems required special dew point control to ensure that condensation on the surfaces would not be present during the cooling season. The building contains a full, theatre style auditorium with acoustic silencing. Additionally, the exterior and center court area of the building includes floor to ceiling windows, which creates multiple heating and cooling loads on various faces throughout the year.

The successfully completed project provides close control of the building’s heating and cooling system, ensuring the comfort of the occupants and energy efficient operation of the campus.
