Powers: Building HVAC, Controls, and Service

The renovation of the historic Peabody Hall at the University of Arkansas showcases the power of advanced HVAC solutions like FlaktGroup SEMCO’s chilled beam systems. These systems helped transform a 100-year-old building into one of the best-performing on campus, balancing energy efficiency with the preservation of its historic character. By utilizing chilled beam technology, the project minimized invasive ductwork, protecting Peabody Hall’s unique architectural details like its historic tin ceilings. The advanced system also provided precise humidity control, a critical need in the Southern climate, and created a low-maintenance solution that has continued to perform exceptionally over time.
