Walton & Company was proud to assist LSC Design with the award winning remodel of their new office space. Many companies talk about their desire to be part of the revitalization of the City of York. LSC Design, an Architectural firm headquartered in York, decided to act on this idea when they moved their corporate office into an abandoned warehouse located at 320 North George Street, in downtown York.
LSC Design with a New Plan
Originally built in 1920 as a pipe and steel warehouse for P.A. & S. Small, the building presented many design challenges. There was an additional challenge as LSC desired to target LEED certification. A number of highly-efficient HVAC systems were considered by Walton & Company Engineers and LSC Design. A geothermal heat pump system was initially considered the best choice. However, this system was ultimately discarded in lieu of a variable refrigerant flow system after energy modeling was complete.
The final mechanical design included a 3-pipe variable refrigerant flow system capable of simultaneously heating and cooling the different parts of the building. It included energy recovery ventilators, demand-controlled ventilation, exposed spiral ductwork, a building management system, waterless urinals, and composting water closets.
Walton and Company and LSC Design a Great Combination
This project was awarded a platinum LEED certification, the highest certification possible, in November of 2014. Walton and Company was capable of talking the most elaborate heating and cooling designs through with LSC Design to develop the best option for comfort.
