The THERMOMASS insulation
system helps the distribution center owner save money in heating
and cooling costs. Because the THERMOMASS insulated panels
have excellent thermal storage properties, facilities using
them have a reduced total load requirement.
Owners of these buildings have taken advantage of this by
purchasing multiple smaller HVAC units, thereby allowing them
to stage compressor usage. THERMOMASS distribution facilities
are also able to shift their exterior load through wall envelope
to off peak hours, thus reducing energy costs by as much as
50% and saving on overall building operating costs.
