LEED

Hallam-ICS is well versed in the process and requirements for LEED certification. Many of the prerequisite and elective points are based on energy conservation and indoor air quality. Energy modeling is an important aspect in documenting points for energy conservation. Hallam-ICS is fully trained of mechanical system energy analysis programs and on daylighting simulation software.

Services & Solutions

All projects and owners have different goals and needs relative to Green Design. As a minimum, all Hallam-ICS designs will be efficient and reliable to a level that would exceed minimum energy codes. Where ever possible, we will incorporate additional features that reduce energy consumption and improve indoor air quality to the highest possible level. To assure that we achieve our goals, Hallam-ICS is focus on a highly integrated design approach, working closely with Architects, Owners, Utilities, and other project stake holders.

Case Study

Oasis at Castle Hot Springs
This exclusive resort in the Arizona Desert included 32 buildings and totals 77,000 sq. ft. Structurally sound buildings will be restored and new buildings will be added, including guest cottages, spa facilities, restaurants, and administrative facilities. The mechanical system includes a water source heat pump system with a site wide condenser piping loop. Heat rejection is via the “lagoon” and heat source is the natural hot spring. Electrical system includes full site power upgrade with sub-grade transformer vault to maintain visual and acoustic quality of site.
Construction value: $22,000,000
