Daikin's Priority Zone at Alder Suites

Posted: Wed, Apr 16 2014 12:00 am

The project: Alder Suites Apartments in Eugene, Oregon

Contractor: Essex General Construction, Inc.

Subcontractor: Innovative Air, Inc.

Challenge: How to keep students comfortable in a demanding multi-tenant application, and still achieve high energy efficiency.

"The developers wanted multi-zone ductless systems for efficiency, but knew some systems “lock out” during opposing calls for heating or cooling. Daikin's "Priority Zone" control logic doesn't "lock out" during mode changes, so students can be comfortable on their terms, while minimizing monthly heating and cooling costs. They also wanted systems that were trouble-free and could withstand the student environment, with strong product warranties to back them up "just in case'. The Daikin MXS Multi Zone systems have an excellent reputation, and the Daikin warranty is among the best - appealing benefits in the very competitive student housing market."
