Boston – enVerid Systems, recently announced that its HLR 1000E-M has received the AHR Expo Innovation Award in the Green Building category by a panel from the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers.enVerid HLR technology was recognized for innovation, value, and market impact among green building products. .Legacy commercial HVAC designs rely on massive volumes of outside airflow to maintain indoor air quality, resulting in oversized equipment and a 30-50% waste in HVAC energy consumption.To eliminate this waste, HLR technology cleans a building’s indoor air at a nanoscopic molecular level, enabling the building to use far less outside air ventilation while improving indoor air quality. Buildings can then invest in smaller, less expensive HVAC systems and these savings can pay for the HLR modules so building capital costs do not increase.Recognizing the potential for HLR technology, the United States Green Building Council (USGBC) recently introduced Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) pilot credits that allow buildings to earn up to 12 LEED points when designed with HLR modules.In addition, the United States Department of Energy ranked HLR technology as one of the top three energy saving technologies for commercial buildings.
