John Heise, housing special projects manager for the University of Nebraska Lincoln, however, is a firm believer in preventive maintenance.To Heise, it's all about opportunity."The motivation is simple," he explains."If you don't let your system get dirty, you don't have to clean it.Installing Spirotherm (products) is an example of one of the steps being taken to seize the opportunity."
The Lincoln campus of the University of Nebraska (UNL) was founded in 1869 and has a current enrollment of approximately 22,000 students.The housing buildings range in age from almost 80 years old to new, and all have varying HVAC systems.Renovations are underway to update the aging heating and cooling systems in each of the older buildings on the housing side, and Heise's preventive maintenance philosophy assures the residents' comfort with the installation of Spirovent® combination air/dirt separator
