| The heating, ventilating,
and air conditioning project taking place in Cowan Hall is in the
final stages and nearing completion. Right now, the crew is performing
testing and balancing on the new system. The heating system is in
operation, but the air conditioning is projected for another two weeks
to a month. The project was started one year ago. The air conditioning
system is unique in that it operates off of ground water. The ground
water is pumped from one well to another through a heat exchanger.
The heating system is a hot water system rather than a steam system. |
