Results: Canadian communities are tapping into greener ways to heat and cool buildings!
Published on 12/06/2019
The idea is that instead of having an individual heating and cooling system for each building, multiple buildings are hooked up to a single, central system similar to the idea of hooking into a municipal water service instead of each building relying on individual wells. The heating and cooling is distributed to individual buildings through pipes that typically contain heated or chilled water.
