LEED®-Certified Buildings
25% More Energy - Efficient, Says
Study
WHITE SALMON, Wash. —LEED®-
certified
buildings are delivering 25%–30% average energy savings in relation to
noncertified buildings, according to a recent report by the New Buildings
Institute. The study analyzes measured energy performance for 121 LEED-NC (new
construction) buildings. It involved metrics such as energy use intensity,
ENERGY STAR® ratings and measured results compared to initial design and
baseline modeling. read more...

Mr.
John Stanley founded Tri-Dim with the vision of a media
specifically
designed for air filtration.
|
Tri-Dim
addressed another issues, Life Cycle Cost (LCC) of bag
& box air filters. This becomes a
very high issue when you live in Las Vegas. Southern Nevada is known
for two things, one of the hottest vacation spots and a city with more
dust on the ground & in the air then most cities.
|
235%
more surface area equals longer service life
|
| This of course means high volume air filter
sales for local business to try and keep their indoor air quality somewhat
under control. By applying LCC to get the TRUE cost of filter use,
(purchase + labor + energy + disposal = TRUE COST), purchasing has a way
to justify the extra upfront cost of improved air filtration cost
with a ROI. |

Predator Series Air Filter
|
The Predator from Tri-Dim Filter Corporation is an effective, innovative,
economical replacement to other high efficiency filters. The Predator is a high
efficiency eight and four panel V-Cell air filter that utilizes an all plastic
frame and micro-fiber media that is proven to produce consistent results in the
test lab as well as in real world applications.
|
The Predator is available in
60-65%, 80-85%, 90-95%, 98% & 95% DOP |
Predator - Eight Panel V-Cell that utilizes microfiber media and an all plastic frame - offered in a variety of efficiencies.
Predator II - Performance was verified under EPA's Environmental
Technology Verification Program. Four Panel V-Cell that utilizes
microfiber media and an all plastic frame.
Predator VR - Eight Panel V-Cell with double header, microfiber media, plastic and metal frame.
Predator II VR - Four Panel V-Cell with double header, microfiber media, plastic and metal frame.
Predator Prefilter Cube - Cube Prefilter designed for use on reverse
load applications - the cube fits snuggly over the V's and offers MERV
8 or MERV 11 efficiency.

|
Predator Features and Benefits
| Service Life - More media (up to 235% more) equals longer
service life which reduces the life cycle cost |
|
|
Low Resistance- Low resistance results in reduced energy
consumption - that equals large savings
~
The PREDATOR II will save
over $40 per year per filter (see Brochure). |
|
 |
| Media - Microfiber media does not shed fibers or suffer
efficiency degradation |
|
 |
| Light Weight Frame - All plastic frame is easy to dispose
of and is light weight - up to 70% less than conventional filters |
|
 |
| Easy Retrofit - The Predator will easily retrofit into
most applications |
|

LCC Calculation Formulas
|
Investment = Cost of purchase of filters, support service equipment
like frames frames, gaskets & tools. If you stock filters instead
of order on demand then include storage cost, handling & if any
damages.
Energy = The total cost of the power needed to operate the system with current & new filters.
Maintenance = The present total cost of maintenance, including filter
replacement over a specified time frame. Include transportation, moving
filters from point A to disposal & setup time.
Cleaning = The present cost of HVAC, coil & duct cleaning, if
applicable. This cost can be minimized or eliminated by using higher
efficiency filtration & setting a SOP on how air filters are to be
removed from the unit (example turning the unit off before opening the
door or vacuuming the filter area when replacing filters to improve
your IAQ.

+ New Investment
+ New energy
+ New maintenance
+ New cleaning
+ New disposal
= New LCC
+ Current Investment
+ Current energy
+ Current maintenance
+ Current cleaning
+ Current disposal
= Current LCC
+ Current LCC
- New LCC
= Savings or Cost
This would offset a portion
of
the energy cost, resulting in a
partial payback |
| Disposal = Total cost for removal and disposal of the used filters off
your property. If the filter is incinerable, it could generate fuel
that might be used to heat the building or drive a steam pump, this
would be a negative cost to stop doing incineration. |
