Laboratories

Research facilities, specifically laboratories and clean rooms, consume energy at significantly higher rates than average commercial buildings. The Department of Energy and the Environmental Protection Agency both recognize this trend and have outlined a series of measures for upgrading “specialty buildings.” While retrofitting a research facility entails numerous challenges, the high levels of inefficiency and growing safety concerns within the specialty building space necessitate serious energy improvements. The Clark team has extensive experience with labs and other research facilities and can upgrade your facility to ensure that your employees are working under the best conditions.

Improvements in laboratory design and technology range from high-efficiency task lighting to centralized demand control ventilation (CDCV). Below is a sampling of additional solutions that Clark Energy Group can implement in your research facility:

Energy monitoring control systems
Dual duct systems
Reduced air change rates
Cool beams
Auto sash closures
VAV fume hood controls
Free cooling
Low pressure ventilation
Heat recovery systems
