1. The Challenge:
As part of a comprehensive energy savings initiative, the City of Salina identified opportunities to reduce heat loss and improve working conditions for mechanics and maintenance staff across multiple facilities. Through the Investment Grade Audit process, Envocore’s Building Envelope team found weatherization weaknesses and significant heat loss through roof assemblies.
2. Project Drivers:
- Cut energy costs across City facilities
- Reduce energy loss through improved weatherization and roof insulation
- Improve comfort and working conditions for maintenance staff
- Enhance the appearance and brightness of key workspaces
3. Envocore’s Solution:
Envocore installed targeted weatherization upgrades and roof insulation improvements across several City of Salina maintenance facilities. These improvements helped reduce energy loss and created brighter, more comfortable environments for staff at:
- Building Maintenance
- Landfill
- Wastewater
- Water Treatment facilities
4. Results / Impact
Following installation, HVAC equipment began cycling less frequently—resulting in substantial energy savings and a noticeable improvement in comfort for the City’s hardworking teams. Envocore helps communities like Salina turn small upgrades into big impacts—lower bills, happier staff, and a lighter footprint on the planet.
Envocore completed targeted building envelope upgrades across several City of Salina maintenance facilities, including weatherization improvements and roof insulation enhancements. These behind-the-scenes upgrades reduced energy loss while improving comfort and the overall appearance of key workspaces used by the City’s maintenance teams.
