Bernhard teams recently completed a crucial HVAC system upgrade at Truman School in Marrero, Louisiana. The upgrade included replacing three chillers and ten chilled water pumps, integrating new VFDs for pumps and modern chillers, addressing previous temperature control issues, and improving overall system performance. The improved HVAC system will provide a more comfortable and efficient learning environment for years to come. The upgrade was successfully implemented in two phases, strategically dividing the building to minimize disruption. We completed the major system shutdown and restart within two weeks after the school year ended on May 24. This project showcases our ability to execute complex renovations under tight time constraints while maintaining operational efficiency. #sustainability #energyefficiency
May is Mental Health Awareness Month. At Bernhard, we work to raise awareness and encourage open discussion about mental health in the AEC industry to create a more understanding and compassionate workplace environment.
Bernhard teams recently conducted the final crane lift associated with the utilization of LCMC Health's University Medical Center’s heat pump chiller heater. Bernhard pioneered use of the heat pump chiller heater in healthcare facilities and was one of the earliest to leverage the benefits of chilled beam technology in the United States. #innovation #healthcare

Just as we have helped our customers develop and achieve drastic energy reduction goals, we also have a responsibility to monitor and mitigate the environmental impacts of our own operations. In Fall 2022, we took steps to further solidify our commitment to this responsibility by gaining membership in Green Business Bureau. GBB helps companies prioritize, manage and certify green initiatives and is considered a global leader in sustainability program management. Bernhard has certified 22 office locations with GBB, with many locations earning the Gold and Silver-Level certifications. #sustainability #energy #esg
