Project Overview
Worthington Enterprises’ Chilton modernization adds a 58,000-square-foot building and greater automation to its hand-torch and fuel-cylinder manufacturing campus. The investment supports production efficiency, product quality and future growth.
The Challenge
Expanding an established manufacturing operation requires building systems that fit the new production environment. Air handling, humidity management and recovery of otherwise rejected heat are important application considerations when balancing indoor conditions with energy demand.
Masters Solution
Masters supplied Daikin Skyline air handling units, an Aerofin Coil Run Around energy recovery system and a MeeFog system for humidification. The air handlers provide the conditioning and air-distribution foundation; the coil run-around system adds heat recovery, and MeeFog addresses humidity needs. The package brings these complementary functions together for the expanded manufacturing setting, with heat recovery supporting the project’s HVAC efficiency opportunities.
