McKenney's, Inc. Installs the Most Energy-Efficient HVAC System at an Atlanta Charter School

Atlanta, GA, January 22, 2016 (Newswire.com) - McKenney’s, Inc., the Southeast’s most trusted name in facility construction, operation and maintenance, designed and built an HVAC system with wireless controls to replace window air conditioning units and radiant heat at an Atlanta charter school.

Working with Southface energy consultants, McKenney’s needed to help the school qualify for project funding from the Grants to Green program. To do so, the team had to implement an HVAC system that would significantly reduce the school’s energy consumption—and install it quickly over summer break.

Project Team

* Subcontractor: McKenney’s, Inc.

McKenney’s implemented a variable refrigerant flow and fresh air system to satisfy energy-saving requirements for the grant.

Throughout the project, the team paid careful attention to detail and safety practices while working side-by-side with other trades.
