Graham Hospital : Canton, Illinois
102,000 square feet | $2.5 million
THE CHALLENGE
Graham Hospital had two existing, interconnected chilled water systems, however, they were not functioning at their full potential in providing air conditioning. Simultaneous operation would result in pumping complexities, poor balancing, and limited control. The hospital not only needed to fix the problems at hand, but also wanted to create system redundancy, to ensure the hospital would never experience system failure or downtime, a critical component of the HVAC system.
KED SOLUTION : Problem-Solving for Seamless Functionality
We optimized the chilled water system functionality by replacing the chilled water plant and all necessary pumps and controls. The hospital’s chilled water system upgrade not only resolved function-ality issues, but also improved energy efficiency and provided greater operational control. To create full redundancy, we added an additional chiller, bringing peace of mind to staff, ensuring a reliable, fully functional, fail-safe system to serve the hospital and patients for years to come.
