Manufacturing & Industrial
Injection molding, food processing, metal fab, plastics — every plant has a heat source that dictates the mechanical design and a workforce that expects the temperature at the workstation, not the roof. We build both.

Where facilities like yours get stuck
Four problems we hear on the first walk.
01
Process heat overwhelming comfort cooling
A dozen injection molders throwing 400,000 BTU each turn a 78° design day into a 92° production floor.
02
Make-up air for combustion + exhaust
Ovens, welding booths, paint lines, and downdraft tables all pull air out. Under-sized MUA turns doors into wind tunnels and starves combustion.
03
24/7 operation, minimum downtime
Change-outs and retrofits have to happen on a scheduled shutdown, or between shifts. Missing the window costs a production day.
04
Utility rebate + demand-response participation
Big kWh loads make plants attractive DR participants — but the equipment and controls have to be ready to actually shed on call.
How we deliver
The playbook, on the record.
- Process cooling engineered around actual heat rejection, not floor area
- Spot cooling + destratification for high-bay production spaces
- Direct-fired MUA sized to combined exhaust with balanced dampers
- Shutdown-week retrofits with pre-fabbed assemblies to compress schedule
- Demand-response readiness audits with utility incentive capture
- PM contracts structured around your production calendar, not ours
Typical scope
