J.E. Shekell, Inc. worked with Alcoa Corporation to design a ventilation system for the new bag house facility. This project required our fabrication shop to produce duct work and fittings along with field personnel to complete the full installation in fifteen days. This required two fabrication shifts and a single shift on the installation of the duct. The final project pressurized the new building as well as provided ambient cooling for the space.

J.E. Shekell, Inc. installed a 30-ton Carrier chiller, Bell & Gossett pump and associated PVC piping. The chiller will provide process cooling for hydraulic oil coolers and transformers. Utilizing this system instead of an open cooling tower will reduce the dirt and scale that can form in the process heat exchangers, thus reducing maintenance and production down time.

When Performance Learning Systems decided to construct a new printing facility in Cadiz, Kentucky, we were asked to design and install the HVAC System. PLS required that the system be designed to maintain the proper temperatures and humidity levels for their printing materials and process. The project consists of two Carrier high efficiency heating and cooling systems with multiple stages for heating and cooling. The office and print area system is also zoned for optimal temperature and humidity control. Click Here to View Project Photos.
Shekell Saves Client $250,000! We were able to reduced the horsepower requirements from 400 HP (original job scope) to 90 HP total (J.E. Shekell’s new job scope). Quite an energy savings!
