Lakeway Regional
Medical Center Receives $165,000 Energy Rebate Due to
Energy-Efficient HVAC Systems Provided by HTS Texas.
HTS Texas, the Texas
partner of the largest independent commercial HVAC
manufacturers' representatives in North America, announced today
it supplied the 345,000 sq. ft. Lakeway Regional Medical Center
with an energy-efficient central plant and dehumidification
system that resulted in $165,000 of energy rebates for the
facility.
“Medical facilities have unique needs requiring custom heating
and cooling products,” said David Driggers, system sales
representative for HTS Texas. “We are committed to helping
owners, engineers and contractors achieve real success through
the availability of HTS Texas’ energy-efficient HVAC solutions
that ensure patient and tenant comfort.”
Page Southerland Page, a full-service architecture and
engineering design firm, selected HTS Texas to help Lakeway
Regional Medical Center reach its specific design requirements
for the building ─a custom central plant that pulls heat from
the condenser water system for use in the templifier to generate
reheat for the hospital and eliminate need for a propane boiler
that requires natural gas; a dehumidification system that
properly regulates air temperatures for the hospital operating
rooms and labor/delivery suites; and
the option to run equipment on temporary power.
“A successful medical construction project is characterized by
maintaining the bottom line without sacrificing efficiency and
patient comfort,” said Randy Twedt, senior associate for
PageSoutherlandPage. “HTS Texas provided the most comprehensive
plan to help reach the project’s goals.”
