Direct gas fired equipment is the most efficient way to heat a space that requires large amounts of outside air.  Kitchens, factories, warehouses all have requirements for vast amounts of outside air in order to maintain proper building pressure.  Proper building pressure is necessary to minimize infiltration of cold and/or dirty outside air, and to make sure that exhaust hoods and exhaust systems function properly.  There are a few key jobsite characteristics that must be defined if the system is to function as intended.  Applied Air is hosting a webinar on Monday, August 2, covering the three key pieces of information to gather.

Data centers are popping up all over the world but they all face a common problem...too much energy being consumed by the "non-revenue" part of the electrical load.  Cooling the sea of blade servers in a modern data center is an energy-intensive process that must be controlled.  Microsoft and others have concluded that the old methods of cooling data centers are no longer necessary.  Extremely cold temperatures and tightly controlled humidity levels have been proven to contribute little to overall system stability and reliability.  This has opened the door for the use of a time-tested, low energy, "green", technology for cooling...evaporative cooling.  Applied Air is reintroducing our Aztec line of indirect, or indirect/direct, evaporative cooling systems for data centers.  The Aztec ASC line of products includes extensive outside air filtering, DDC controls with remote monitoring capability and very high efficiency heating technology.  Under the new guidelines issued by ASHRAE and the new conditions promoted by Microsoft, and others, you will find that the Aztec ASC product will provide the required air temperatures for most data centers located west of the Mississippi...without the need for expensive compressor operation.

Oldest Yoder Promotion

Since 1910, Yoder has revolutionized the sheet metal forming industry.  We are looking for the oldest Yoder machinery in production.  Do you have a Yoder machine from the 1930's, 1940's or 1950's that is still in production?  Have you inherited a Yoder machine that you think may be old?  Or are you just curious of the history on your Yoder equipment?  If you are interested in participating, please send us:

1)      Yoder Serial Number

2)      Model of the Yoder Machine (if you know)

3)      Digital picture of the Yoder machine

4)      Address where Yoder machine is currently installed

With that information, we will compile the information to find out the oldest Yoder machine in production.  The winner will be featured in our 100th anniversary marketing campaign.  Please email  us your information.
