This energy-efficient series of active chilled beams from Semco uses 25% less pump and 50% less fan horsepower compared to conventional chilled water loop or rooftop forced air HVAC systems. IQHC also features a 12-slot nozzle that is field-adjustable with two hand-operated levers, allowing easier cfm-rate changes. The beams can be installed in a ceiling grid or as a pendant, and are powerful enough for hospitals, office buildings, and schools. www.semcohvac.com
