Pumps are essential components in HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) systems, playing a crucial role in maintaining optimal temperature levels and ensuring efficient operation. These pumps are responsible for circulating the system fluid, facilitating the transfer of heat and enabling the cooling process.  By continuously moving the fluid, pumps help transfer heat from the indoor environment to the outside, thereby maintaining comfortable temperatures indoors.

Al Manar Building is a combined residential and commercial property located in Ras al-Khaimah, UAE. In a bid to reduce the building’s energy consumption and HVAC operating costs, energy service provider Active Sustainable Solutions enlisted the help of Armstrong for an extensive HVAC system upgrade.

In 2018, the HVAC system at a popular holiday resort suffered a series of failures and leaks, resulting in frequent downtime. An initial review determined that the existing pumps were the cause and had to be replaced. The review also noted that the pumps were oversized, which affected system efficiency. With the resort occupancy rates near 95% for most of the year, HVAC performance and reliability are crucial, so managers decided to go ahead with an upgrade.

Our most recent video is an explanation of how flow levels inform HVAC optimization.

Many of today’s buildings rely on HVAC systems that were oversized on installation to address uncertainty in cooling and heating loads. Unfortunately, many building occupants still experience discomfort, even with the extra capacity in HVAC systems. To make matters worse, most HVAC systems operate inefficiently and this poor performance goes unnoticed by building owners and operators. Without automated maintenance alerts, and regular recommissioning, most buildings will experience a drift in HVAC performance efficiency of 10-30% in just 2 years.

The retrofit of heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) equipment could be a potential shortcut along the road to net-zero, says KEVIN LAIDLER, Sales Director, Middle East and Africa of Armstrong Fluid Technology.

To many of us, the construction boom that transformed a barren desert into a glittering metropolis may seem like only yesterday, but those once newly-constructed buildings are now more than 15 years old. Since then, we’ve seen the advent of Google, the rise of Facebook, and the introduction of driverless cars. With that in mind, how can we possibly believe that heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems installed before the launch of the first iPhone are still adequate?

The healthcare industry wrestles with the long-running problem of patient non-adherence. The consequences are waste of medication, disease progression, reduced functional abilities, lower quality of life and increased use of medical resources, such as nursing homes, hospital visits and admissions.

The built environment grapples with its own version of non-adherence. Buildings of all types and sizes, including healthcare facilities, are designed, constructed and commissioned with mechanical systems to regulate the indoor environment, in particular temperature and humidity. The challenge facility managers face is HVAC systems experience what is referred to as ‘performance drift.’

The profound impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the HVAC industry is being felt by all of us in the HVAC industry. The current challenges and threats have been well documented and, unfortunately, will continue to evolve over the coming days, weeks and months. 

However, as with many tragic events, there can be positive changes that come from this tragedy. One of these positive changes will be the more rapid development and deployment of smart HVAC systems and remote asset management solutions.
