Since Trinity Lutheran Church was first built in 1949, it has gone through many changes in remodling, additions and extensive energy saving methods. The latest addition in 2012 was a 20,400 sqaure foot worship and office space. New air handler units, boiler, Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) pumps and Delta Direct Digital Controls (DDC) were all part of the new construction.
We have recently completed replacing the 6 open flame boilers that serve the other 24,000 sq. ft. of the original building that had been in service since 1983.
After a heat loss, a heat load survey was preformed by a Certified Engineer; his recomomdations were to replace 3.1 million btu availability to 1.25 million btu availability. Two 625,000 btu high efficancy condensing boilers, along with VFD pumps now serve our original building's heating needs.
We will soon be replacing the pnuematic controls in the 1949 building to DDC controls.
In 2011, the church changed over 550 T8 32 Watt light fixtures to 25 Watt light fixtures, and is now replacing lighting in many of the high use areas to LED lighting.
Delamping, LED exit lights, LED dusk to dawn out door lighting, programable thermostats, motion detectors and timers for certain areas, soda machine sensor, and employee/congregation participation, have all been a major part of our energy saving efforts.

Testimonial:
Taking a few very cost effective measures will pay off quick and contiue to pay back.
Working with our local lighting contractor, Jim Gyldenvand, the Lighting Consultant with Bauer Electric in Waupaca, and rated one of the top 5 trade ally for small business's with Focus on Energy, we have taken advantage of many incentives and rebates. I highly recommend working with a consultant that you trust and has a reputation in the lighting industry.
