Supply Systems
More than 60 percent of the energy consumed by a conventional
lab or cleanroom is used to circulate air and to supply heating,
cooling, humidity, and clean air, so energy-efficient designs
can result in substantial savings. Generally, annual supply
system energy costs are ranked from highest to lowest as follows:
- Cooling/Chillers,
- Fan energy,
- Humidification, and
- Heating.
