Clean Coils = Better Performance

Lumalier worked on an ESPC project for the City of Birmingham which included a majority of the city-owned buildings in and around Birmingham. Lumalier was chosen for turnkey UV retrofit solutions on six large existing AHUs.

The goal was to improve indoor air quality (IAQ) and AHU coil performance while also implementing a sustainable O&M process for coil cleaning. The UVC systems provide the city of Birmingham buildings with coil cleaning 24/7/365 and improvement in HVAC air quality for the occupants of these buildings.

Project Details

  • 6 Large AHU Systems
  • 7 total UV systems (1 AHU was so large it needed 2 racks)
  • 97 total UV lamps

Focus:

  • Coil Cleaning – Energy Savings
  • IAQ
