Customer
A Volkswagon Dealership
Location
York, PA
Scope
A radiant heating and snow melting system for a new automobile showroom.
What Client Needed
Comfort for buyers and employees, especially in the dealership’s 24-hour auto maintenance bays, as well as sidewalks and entryways free of snow and ice all winter long.
Solution
Waste oil boilers are coupled with an extensive layout of Onix EPDM tubing to provide heat in a state-of-the-art service area where mechanics can work on a subzero day with a heated concrete floor. In addition, a snow melting system clears walkways and garage entry areas.
Jeff DalePresidentA.D. Supplies"We prefer Onix tubing because of its flexibility and durability on the jobsite. It's the only tubing we use in garage areas because of its elongation characteristics – it stands up to concrete cracking and shifting slabs like no other tubing with ten times greater elongation than PEX tubing."
