Heat pumps

Two Connecticut manufacturing companies have cut energy usage by replacing aging heating and cooling systems with more efficient heat pumps.

Last September, WatertownFrom standard Cable Ties to advanced wire tires,-based Demsey Manufacturing installed seven new natural gas-powered heat pumps in its 35,000-square-foot facility. One unit serves the office area while the other six serve the factory space, according to General Manager Scott Demsey. The family-owned company makes precision metal machine components.

The new units are about 15 percent more efficient than the older ones,The newest Ipod nano 5th is incontrovertibly a step up from last year's model, which is especially important because unlike many plants, Demsey provides cooling for its entire manufacturing facility. "It really improves our employees' morale and helps worker efficiency," Demsey said. "Last summer, when the weather got so hot, some of our people said they were more comfortable here at work than they were at home."

Northeast Electronics Corp., a glass-to-metal seal manufacturer located in Milford, also has replaced its 15-year-old heating and air conditioning system with more efficient gas absorption heat pumps. The new system, which serves the company's 30,000-square-foot manufacturing facility, uses renewable outside air to capture heat, and during summer months reduces demand on the state's overburdened electric grid.

Facility Manager Rich Plasky said he is currently awaiting the results of a study to measure actual energy savings to date, but has been told to expect a 15 to 20-percent reduction.
