The Science of ComfortTM
When it comes to commercial HVAC air distribution systems, single-duct VAV systems with hydronic reheat are one of the most popular in North America. As decarbonization and electrification efforts continue to impact the built environment, it is critical to maximize the efficiency of these systems and reduce their natural gas usage.

At Price, we pride ourselves on being industry leaders in room air distribution. Our manufactured products are designed around a common goal: to keep the room air clean, dry and comfortable. This is often accomplished by blowing a jet of conditioned, fresh air through a grille, register or diffuser (GRD) throughout a room to properly ventilate it.

Cleanrooms are critical spaces within many industries that are dedicated to uniquely sensitive processes or high-value products such as computer chips and lifesaving vaccines. They typically have very high air change rates related to the ISO rating class required for the processes they house. The various ISO classes represent the airborne particle concentrations allowed in the space and range from ISO 9 (the “dirtiest”) to ISO 1 (the “cleanest”).

As power grids evolve and become more modern and complex, battery energy storage systems are being used more frequently. Commonly known as a BESS, this device is typically used for power grid energy storage as an operating reserve, for demand-side load management and for frequency control, as well as to minimize the risk of power outages. It is often used as an energy storage solution with intermittent renewable energy sources.
