PROJECT DESCRIPTION
As one of the top performing recreation centres in its class, the second Thermenex system installed reuses the low grade heat from all sources and provides 100% of pool heat demand. The City library, 200 meters away, is also completely heated with reclaimed energy. The energy cost reduction totals 30% with a carbon emission reduction of 70%. This project was also awarded a Canadian Consulting Engineering Award of Excellence.
