As technology advances, every industry evolves over time, and the HVAC industry is no exception. The early Egyptians are credited with using the first evaporative cooling technology in houses, but had no electricity to power pumps and fans. Jump ahead a few thousand years and HVAC technology has come a long way. In its own unique way each successive technological advance revolutionizes the industry.

A Systems Approach Maximizes Energy Savings Potential

Variable speed pumps in a recreation complex save a college thousands of dollars per year in energy costs.
by Brent Ross
Pumping systems consume a significant portion of global electrical energy, accounting for nearly 20 percent of the energy used by electric motors and 25 to 50 percent of the total electrical usage in certain industrial facilities.
Ironically, pumping systems are rarely included in energy-efficiency calculations, even though pumps present such energy-savings potential. One could argue that mentioning “motor” or “variable speed drive” (VSD) is sufficient because these components indicate the greatest energy-savings opportunity in a pumping system.
