Projects

Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) New Admin. Office

A project that will set a benchmark for sustainable design in commercial building.

The project is also participating in the Canadian Green Building Council’s Zero Carbon Building Pilot Program.

The new building’s sustainable design features will include:

Solar thermal panels on the roof
Four solar chimneys
Waterwalls to reduce energy use
Electric vehicle charging stations
Rainwater harvesting to irrigate a green roof

Mechanical Systems

Kelson mechanical highlights:

Complete architectural ceiling and HVAC system integration as majority of the ceilings will be radiant ceiling panels for both hydronic heating and cooling.

Various heat reclaim measures such as solar to hydronic panels on the roof, heat reclaim chiller, feature water walls integrated into HVAC system for free cooling / humidification.
