Saving Energy, Earning Praise

PROJECT NAME Metropolitan Church VRZ Retrot PROJECT LOCATION Atlanta, Georgia PROJECT TEAM Owner: Metropolitan Church General Contractor: McKenneys, Inc. SPECIALIZATIONS Energy Management MARKETS Public Assembly & Places of Worship

cKenneys completed a largescale variable refrigerant zoning (VRZ) retrot to curb energy costs at a metropolitan Atlanta church and daycare center. THE CHALLENGE McKenneys had to install the VRZ at the multi-storied church with aging infrastructure and architecture. There could be no downtime in air conditioning to the daycare facility

which the existing system primarily served and the team had to adhere to lengthy no noise hours. THE SOLUTION The team installed all equipment while the existing system was online. As a precaution, work began in the fall so the cooling system could be modied when those electrical circuits werent needed. Also, much of the

installation was done after daycare hours to safeguard the children. THE RESULTS The church is now able to curtail energy expenses by cycling systems on and off as needed. This successful retrot differentiated McKenneys among building services providers that install conventional split systems and has led to additional VRZ installations at this and other Atlanta churches.
