Schools

Princeton University…

Today’s school Facilities Managers must perform more than one job.

They must replace old and outdated equipment, but accomplish it while reducing unwanted energy impacts in order to meet government targets on energy consumption. Air-conditioning bills skyrocket during our hot sunny days, due to greater solar heat loads. At the same time, administrators must begin complying with new energy saving mandates for school buildings in New Mexico.

Solar Shield Technologies can provide options that will provide system ROI in 4-7 years while meeting the 15 - 30% energy reduction mandated by law.

If your cooling system is no longer doing the job, the usual solution might be to increase capacity. Or if you have an evaporative system you might have considered switching to refrigerated air. These days, that's not going to work. The combination of government energy targets and the seriously high infrastructure and electrical demands of more capacity make the "usual solution" not an option.

Solar Shield Technologies can provide options that will provide system ROI in 4-7 years while meeting the 15 - 30% energy reduction mandated by law. This means that if you are planning to change out traditional evaporative coolers for expensive refrigerated air or you're planning to add more refrigerated units to your system, you may not need to.

We routinely handle large projects, and can help with:

Upgrading windows performance by rejecting up to 70% of total solar heat gain without the expense of window replacement
Meeting cooling demands with high performance evaporative AC that performs to refrigerated A/C levels at 70% less utility

We can do this without capital equipment upgrades by applying technologies that reduce or eliminate solar heat gain, you can achieve both goals: improve the performance of your existing system and meet (and even exceed) government requirements for this year and several years to come.

If you are considering capital upgrades to your refrigerated or traditional evaporative cooling units, you may wish to check out Green AC, the new product line from Solar Shield Technologies that will improve performance and extend the life of your existing system, and can replace aging systems with energy-efficient higher-performance units.

Cool Windows

Hüper Optik® energy control films selectively block specific wavelengths of sunlight without diminishing optical clarity. Each film can:

Reduce total solar energy buildup from window sunlight in office and retail spaces by up to 70%.

Eliminate more than 99% of the ultraviolet rays, limiting employee and customer exposure to the most harmful wavelengths of our high desert sun.

Preserve your views and the natural daylighting inside the building.

Provide an additional level of safety by keeping glass fragments together in the event of accidental breakage.

Hüper Optik offers three optical-quality window film product lines: Hüper Nano-Ceramic Series, Hüper Select Series, and Hüper FUSION Series, all built to Hüper optical clarity standards.

As the leader in spectrum-selective films, Hüper Optik stands behind their products and proven technologies for businesses, schools, government buildings, and homes here in New Mexico.

Hüper Optik films are the first films certified by the NFRC (National Fenestration Registration Council).
